We interrupt our programming to bring you an annoucement, which I will bring you again during the week. I'm a big believer in the "beating you over the head with a hammer" theory of begging for charity.

I got the annual email from my dear friend Robyn:

The fifth annual blogger "Boobie-Thon" launches on Sunday, October 1, 2006. It will run through 11:59 p.m. EDT on Saturday, October 7, 2006. This yearly event features bloggers showing their (covered and uncovered) breasts in order to raise money for charity during Breast Cancer Awareness Month. (Please click here for the 2005 site). Watch this space in the upcoming days for more information and updates, and go here for information on how to submit your photograph!

Yes. It's a boobiethon. And this boobiethon, during the years of its existence, has raised over $26,000 for the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. So you get to see boobs and feel good about it. Well, you probably would feel good about it anyhow, but this is a different kind of good.

Go over to the site and read more about the history of the boobiethon, where the money goes to and how you - looking at you, girls - can submit your boobs and how everyone else can donate to the cause (Please note the main page is always SFW).

And yes, my boobs will be there, as they have been every year. You want to see them? Gotta donate.

Boobies. If you got em, send em.
