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"?

    dc- i am offended that you consider socal dolls "genetically inferior"... especially when some of us carry shanks, or tasers, and none of us are afraid to pull a stiletto on you... we're badasses, mr. cool.

    heels are just not beach attire, hon, they sink in sand. (and, fyi, i have turned in my regular flip-flops for fitflops, and am toning while i walk... plus, we have a ton of kids at my work!)

    fitflops are amazing... and i have to tell you, i've already noticed a difference!

    you better change that bio, mister, you have A LOT of socal dolls on here and that's quite insulting... i may have to rethink my coke doll idea... i was gonna do it for my shoot with dc imagery... but if you're gonna be mean, i don't know i want to do it anymore...

    eh.. things are up in the air as always, but i have 2 shoots nailed down. the 13th with ama and the 16th with dc imagery. (i just have to get my brother to tailor my dress for me!)

    no, he works at one down here... dominguez hills, i think. but they may do the printing down here... he told me to tell him when you're sending an order and if it's down there he'll save anything extra they usually toss out (if he can!)...

    funny thing is, i actually applied for a job there last year, but it didn't pay enough and i'm REALLY not a salesperson. he said a lot of the time, they end up printing more than the customer buys and throwing out the rest... he told me if he knew ahead of time, he'd be able to lookout for them. just fyi...

    Thank you, friend, for putting me there! PL reminds me every day that I have a place in this world.
  • Chris Gomez

    Well I totally appreciate it! The funny party is you put me right next to Devil Doll and I just met and did a project with her last month. Kind of a funny coincidence.

    I was running around and shooting alot on the boat at Ink and Iron. Unfortunately, I missed alot of familiar faces and never got to meet new ones : ( I shoot the Primer Nationals just about every year. Maybe finally catch you up in Ventura, or maybe I can make it up to Billetproof?

    In any case, I appreciate the Feature! This is really a fun site and it's nice to see others that I admire on here having a great time too : )

    Oh ya, and I have ALOT of new work 'a-brewing so stay tuned ; )
