It’s back! For the entire month of June, it will be Tube Top Month right here in this blog. What that means is, every post for the entire month will mention tube tops in some form or fashion, no matter how little relevance tube tops have to the rest of the post. There will also be pictures of tube tops, links to places to buy tube tops, and lots of other fun stuff.
Tube Top Month can be quite educational. For example, at the beginning of Tube Top Month last year, one of my regular blog readers thought a tube top could have straps. “It’s almost a tube top!” she said. Through repeated counseling in the form of blog entries, I finally helped her realize that there’s no such thing as almost a tube top. By the end of the month, she had made progress, but still wasn’t quite there. “Well, if it has straps, and I untie the straps, and the top stays up, it’s a tube top, right?” Sorry, no.
I thought Tube Top Month had been a failure, at least where she was concerned. But my proudest moment came on January 7, 2006, when she showed up at my plate party at the Flying Saucer wearing the outfit pictured below:
And at that point I realized all my hard work had paid off… I was doing my part to make the world a better place, one tube top at a time. And my influence continues to spread… for example, I know that fellow blogger Kat has been wearing more tube tops since she started reading my blog. Even The Most Annoying Woman On The Planet, with whom I rarely see eye to eye on anything, has told me that she’s going to purchase and wear a tube top in celebration of Tube Top Month.
So here’s looking forward to an exciting month of posts… have pics of yourself in a tube top? Send ’em to me and I’ll post ’em! Happy June everybody….
