Exclamation Celebration of Shrinkage 2006

Yep, it's that time again.

Early next year, the 25th of February, 2006, myself, Marc Monnin, Quinton Healy, and several other absolute loons will be taking a nice refreshing swim off the frigid, windy coast of Chicago, IL into sunny lake michigan in order to raise money for a family in need.

As I did last year, I will be selling my body as a billboard to raise money. Last year my flabbergasting flubber was worth over $200, and this year I'm gunning for $300.

I have a secret though - I'm rapidly losing weight, and I've dropped 21 pounds since then, so I'm not sure how much of me will be left by February. By the time the lake jump of 2007 rolls around, I might be as skinny as Marc, so this could be your last chance to see me embarass myself for the sake of charity.

So for the low price of at least $25, you can get a small message on MAH BELLAH or other part of my torso.

Get in while the getting is good! PM me if you want to donate

Okay, at $85, i'm falling quite a bit short of the "$300 to see Aranyic in a Speedo" fund....

Come on! It's time for the ladies of short-media to come out of the woodwork! I mean, which one of you WOULDN'T want to see this stud in a speedo?

edit: Not $85, $110 - i suck at math.
