My Son Gomez: Jedi d'Amour

Fourth Grade Ladies: You've Been Warned.


More forceful than a Gungan energy ball...

More alluring than a Clawdite shape-shifter...

More savage than a Wookiee with low blood sugar...

And yet...

Romantic as Endor's emerald moonshine...

Playful as an RV full of Ewoks...

Smooth as Lando Calrissian's mustache...


Because babe-magnet is your destiny...

STAR WARS COLOGNE
Smell The Force.



Go see what the hilarious Jessica Bern is doing to promote ovarian cancer awareness. After you've blown Mountain Dew out your nose at her priceless impersonation of "Aunt Flo," take a moment to go here and register with the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund. It just takes a couple of clicks, and for every registrant, Seventh Generation will donate $1 to this important cause. Thank you!

Thank you to Melissa at The Betty and Boo Chronicles for including "The Cold 100" in her best-of-the-week roundup!

Thank you to This, That and the Other for linking up to my mammogram post. I really appreciate that - glad it made you laugh!

A shout-out to my friend Ocean (from Starbucks in Kauai)! Stay safe...

    Hi, Anna!

    I've got some catch-up reading to do! I DO remember the mammo one, though! That was just great!!! (And true!) You nailed it. Oops, bad. Nailed. Yuk.

    Have a great week, Anna.

    Oh, man. They make Chewbacca cologne NOW? Or is that STILL? I will send appropriate warnings to all little princesses in galaxies far far away.

    May the farce be with them.

    Good call on Lando's moustache. Few things are smoother than Billy Dee Williams while and Cloud City.

    Do you know where he got that cologne? I have a friend who... Never mind. He is already married.

    Man, I hope it smells good, because my husband just left to go buy it after walking past the computer.

    Is the female version the Princess Leia's gold bikini scent?

    4th grade girl: "Marnie thinks you smell good. (points to her friend) Why don't you ask her to be your girlfriend?"

    Lando/Gomez "The full-speed-ahead-and-bash-them-in-the-teeth approach may work very well for a Wookiee and a Corellian, but it's not a technique that works for me. My plans involve secrecy... subtlety... subterfuge..."

    I will go over to Jessica's site asap. My mother died of ovarian cancer.
    The cologne scares me!

    Good Lord. Although, I do find this less disturbing than "celebrity" fragrances. Who wants to smell like Britney Spears or >gak< Paris Hilton? My mind won't even let me go near the horror that must be those scents...

    heck... I'll take some now. Girls never fall for my mind tricks.

    Oh, you are very kind to thank me ... I'm still laughing about that post, and I believe I used the phrase "booger ranch" this week.

    I bow down to the genius of you, Anna.

    That cologne is priceless. If it works for him, little girls beware: Cassanova is on the loose!

    Ohhhh, THAT'S what that smell on my son is.... I thought it was just accumulated sweat, clammy hands from holding a Wii remote, and unwashed hair.

    That cologne is definitely an acquired taste. *~*

    I imagine this is what the bar at Mos Eisley smelled like. It probably reeked of the stuff.

    Oh. My. God. The sane man in me tells me to turn tail and run, but my inner geek is strangely intrigued and has already begun surfing the web to purchase a bottle ;-)
