Best Gift Calendars Evah.

by Little Miss Attila on November 25, 2008

For your non-vegetarian friends, the Claire Booth Luce Institute has just published its “Pretty in Mink” wall calendar, and it rawks. (Malkin! Ham! Coulter! A bevy of beautiful women with huge tracts of . . . cerebral cortex.)

For the vegetarians among us, you might try one of Gina’s lovely cheesecake calendars, the proceeds of which go to wounded vets. Let’s face it: even straight chicks like looking at beautiful women. Even gay men like looking at beautiful women. And even those who mistrust the military want to see wounded veterans receive proper care—and images conducive to improved morale.

The fan of horror movies (and misogynists, for that matter) will probably prefer this macabre offering, whereas male health nuts looking for inspiration will probably want to hang this pictorial on their walls—it is also, of course, a thoughtful gift for straight girls and gay guys.

Another well-executed girl-cheesecake option would be the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Calendar; it’s difficult to go wrong with that classic.

If your pr0n tastes run toward the musical, a nice guitar calendar should hit the spot.

Another Gina-esque take on tamer cheesecake would be the Vixen Calendar; sportsmen/-women and fishermen will enjoy this one, which is wholesome, and this calendar, which is less so.

Gundog lovers who like Labradors will dig planning their days on this wall-organizer all year long. Here’s one for big-game hunters that focuses on trophy-quality specimens.

Naturally, my favorite calendars feature pit bulls, particularly when the proceeds go to finding appropriate homes for these noble, spirited, loyal and intelligent animals. Try this one, or check out the adorable pitties who became adoptable after dogfighting-ring busts, courtesy of my favorite pit-bull education organization, BADRAP (Bay Area Dogowners Responsible About Pitbulls).

[P.S. Can someone tell me why the size of my printer’s bullet in the list above vary? That should not happen, and I did use the same html for each listing. Please advise.

Do you want me to look at it? Did you code it yourself or use the little coding thingie in WP?

Basically, the bullet issue is due to failing to close the anchor link in the previous item, which means that the link technically continues into the next bullet and the bullet assumes the style change due to the presence of a link – in other words, you have bold bullets.

Not everyone can say that, either.
