Tell us a little about yourself! (details or get declined)
Whenever I meet a pinup, I make it my duty to analyze the strength and sexiness of the doll as a species. To this end, I hold pinup duels. Taking two dolls and making them battle until one feels the urge to take off their heels to fight. That is the "loser", and I ban the inferior one from the site immediately. The winner gets to go another round. I have found that, in general brunette dolls are tougher, and the Southern California girls are typically the first to jump out of heels to throw down. I guess it comes from centuries of wearing flip flops to the beach. I have hypothesized that pinups as a race cannot survive long in the intense theatre of competition that comes from modern day hipsters, scenesters, and a world filled with uggs driven by MySpace angled self portraits.

Occasionally I will get a mutation, a doll that is taller, or curvier, or more fierce than all the rest. Almost invariably this proves to be a great match for my current best, but on very rare occasions it gives the doll an edge, the species continues to adapt to its environment. The best continues to get better, as does the competition.

When I reach the end of the current supply, I am left with one pinup, the strongest of the harem. Since it would make no sense to ban this one, I keep her close and take good care of her. I immediately have her shipped in a crate to PIXAR Animation Studios next door to the PL Loft where she gets rendered in 3D for preservation, creation of leg lamps, and future cloning.

Attached to the crate is the following label:

This week was special. They wrote back to thank me, and I received a crate. Inside was a genetic mutation of my top doll which includes all the best features of all previous winners. I have set aside the weekend for a Grand Tournament. From a field of hundreds, we will discover the true Champion. There can be only one that sleeps in my room. Who dares to dance with "Desi Trump"?

  • Raven Foxx

    Hey Daddy! I've been so busy with work that I rarely get a chance to send comments to my friends, who I miss terribly! So here is a blanket comment update. I did a photoshoot last week, and I'm waiting for the edits so I can post them here on PL. I can't wait! I love them! Going on a ride with my husband's car club this Saturday to Palm Springs and celebrating my birthday at Bar Sinister next Saturday. If you'd like to join us for my birthday, drop me a comment/message and I'll get you the information! It would be great to celebrate with you. Have a great weekend and remember to always live life to the fullest!

  • Charity Ann

    Sooooo...the other day I was on my way to get my hair cut at Robert's salon in Ventura when out of the corner of my eye I see a Coca-Cola building! Oh man! If I didn't have a set hair appointment I would have pulled off the 101 and taken a picture for you! (Why yes, I do indeed travel with a camera and tripod. You never know when the opportunity will present itself!) So, the long of the short of it was, you came to mind and I had to tell you. xoxo Charity Ann
  • Game Photography Edinburgh.

    Thanks for the photo comment DC. I think most men want to raise a son. I probably wouldn't have so many daughters (4), if he had came along earlier! But as an old Scottish King (Robert the Bruce) said, "If at first you don't succeed, try, try and try again!"
    Have a good day ya all!
  • Cherrish

    I will leave a pic eventually! I just hardly am ever on here because this website seems to not like my computer too much:(
