I am currently working on a project that involves traveling the world and taking pictures of myself in a pair of autumnal colored underwear. I eventually plan to collect the photographs in a coffee table book entitled “The Traveling Underpants”. You may wonder why anyone would want to buy a compendium of me in my boxer briefs, much less display it on their coffee table. My only response is that no one can predict what will become a worldwide sensation – I point to the Tomogatchi or Chuck Norris. My idea makes just as much sense as those ideas.
The only problem with my plan is I don’t have the money to travel around the earth. That’s where you come in.
You may claim your contribution as tax-deductible for all I care. I travel cheap and I only need to take one companion – usually someone who has a better digital camera than mine. Also, hopefully someone who won’t freak out and walk away after I have already dropped trouser on top of the Space Needle.
I offer three levels of sponsorship*. Anyone wishing to donate up to $100 will be a Dogwood. You will receive a signed postcard from me from the destination you helped pay for. If you donate between $100 and $500 you will receive a thank you in the eventual book, be deemed a Hickory member, and also receive all the benefits of a Dogwood. The highest level is Maplebud. If you pay for an entire trip, I will take a photo of you (in your choice of attire) and me (in my underwear) and include it in the book on the page chronicling the part of the journey you funded. PLEASE DONATE HERE: OR CONTACT ME AT thetravelingunderpants@littlecubenews.com CURRENT TOTAL DONATED: * If I don’t get enough money to travel, or travel enough to make a book, there will be no refunds. But at the very least, I eat a lot of teriyaki bowls, and I can’t afford that habit either. |
