Han(d) Solo

We don't have a lot of burlesque in Vermont, but if we did, I'd want it to be Star Wars burlesque.

Check out photos from the Mos Eisley Cantina — a temporary title for a night of Star Wars burlesque held at L.A.'s club Bordello. They've got it all, from a fishnet-clad Darth Vader to a strangely attractive Jabba the Hutt.

Be careful when you click the link — you might have a Han(d) Solo moment.

Athens Boys Choir Tonight!

For those of you willing to brave snowy roads tonight, I highly recommend heading down to the Juice Bar at Middlebury College to catch Athens Boys Choir — "a gender-deviant, multi-media, spoken word/hip-hop extravaganza."

The word "choir" suggests a large ensemble of gender bending entertainers, but Athens Boys Choir is comprised of one performer, Katz, who has performed with the likes of Kate Clinton, Girlyman and Ani Difranco. In fact, Athens Boys Choir is now signed to Daemon Records, Amy Ray's label — not bad, eh?

The show starts at 7pm, free and open to the public.

Shave the Date

Like many Americans, I'll be watching the highly-anticipated inauguration of Barack Obama on January 20, 2009. However, watching this momentous event on television just doesn't seem like enough. I want to do more to commemorate the occasion — and I've found just the thing.

Whilst trolling the Internet last night, I came across the Mominatrix blog at ImperfectParent.com where writer Kristen Chase encourages us to "Shave the Date" and say goodbye to "Bush" on 1/20/09. Chase writes, "Show your love for your country, and as you watch our new president take his oath and feel your satin undies against your smooth nether region, you can take pride in knowing you've rid your world of bush once and for all."

Brilliant!

Whether you shave, wax or simply trim a little in solidarity, I invite you all to join me in saying bye-bye to bush on 1/20/09. The Mominatrix has some great bush-ridding safety tips and suggestions. For the guys, check out my tips here.

Sign. Me. Up.

I just found out about this. Good thing my passport is still valid.

Global O

Have you done your part for world peace? If not, here's your chance. Today is Global Orgasm Day, and people all around the world are getting off for peace. The founders of Global Orgasm Day wish to see if we can affect change by turning the peace and warmth of orgasm into conscious intent. They're asking all of us to have an orgasm today while focusing on world peace.

Now, don't get me wrong — I love the idea of powerful orgasmic energy changing the world, but I don't think images of peace (people holding hands, fuzzy bunnies, etc.) are going to get me off. Do you think it would be okay to focus on my favorite porn stars to get me over the hilt, then think about world peace as I ride the wave? 

You can find out more about orgasming for peace by visiting Global Orgasm online and watching their introductory video. Hey I've given myself and others earth-shattering orgasms before, so this should be a piece of cake. . .

Happy Holidays to all of you. Seven Days is now officially closed for the year, so my posts may be few and far between until January. Whether you've been naughty or nice, I wish you a joyous and orgasm-filled holiday season.

xoxo,
MM
