“Into Dimension 36D!” was the original album opener meant to “explain” The Boobles, but in the end there’s no need to explain it… Breasts Are Great!

Starring Dr. Demento regulars Chris Mezzolesta of Power Salad (and Kaopectate commercials!), the great Luke Ski, and Dan from the UK’s Flat29, with sci-fi sounds by Jack Dangers of Meat Beat Manifesto fame, used with permission (gracias, Jack) from his “Forbidden Planet Explored/Sci-Fi Sound Effects” discs.  Snazzy!

In the meantime, please ask your friends to check out our audio samples, “Like” us on Facebook, and get yourselves all nice and ready for our follow-up album, which should be completed in 2012!

The Boobles are currently working on their follow up album, “Boobey Road”, and we’ll be checking in for progress updates, so stay tuned!  It’s comedy for a cure!

Cheers!

Worth has been… NIPPED! Alas, no live show this weekend. You’ll have to wait for the debut of “Maxine’s Killer Mammers”!
HOWEVER, we WILL still be at Rahr & Sons Brewery from 1-3PM this Saturday, Nov. 26th, during their weekly tour/tasting! $7 gets you 3 pints of their award-winning beer and you keep the glass! If you bring another Rahr pint glass from a previous visit, they will donate a portion of the door to US! AWESOME!
We’ll have great raffle items, Black Friday-ish (Pink Saturday?) sales on Boobles merch, and our very own Big Mike will be playing your fave classic rock tunes! Please come out for that and help us raise money for The Breast Cancer Research Foundation!

Jugs n kisses,

Your generosity has helped us get started, manufacture our first album and get this crazy project to fund breast cancer research chugging along now on its own steam!  THANK YOU TO ALL OUR BOOBLES BRAS!

So on the heels of all that blah blah blah, we’re proud to have donated $1,800.00 to The BCRF today!  Go you!!!
We still have PLENTY of copies of “The Pink Album”… we haven’t hit the Billboard Hot 100 just yet… so be sure and spread the word about what we’re doing!  Your mother should know!

I’m done talking now.  I leave you with the appreciation email sent from The BCRF… after all, it’s addressed to all of YOU!
Ta ta for now,
( . ) Dr. Robert ( . )

From The BCRF:
“On behalf of Evelyn Lauder and our entire team, thank you for your thoughtful contribution of $ 1,800.00 to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Your donation will sponsor the lifesaving research of brilliant scientists from around the globe, whose work holds the greatest promise to eliminate breast cancer in our lifetime.

This year, BCRF is awarding $33 million in grants to 172 researchers who have been carefully selected by our Scientific Advisors. These men and women are leading the most advanced and groundbreaking breast cancer investigations worldwide. Our researchers aim not only to uncover the underlying causes of breast cancer, towards a goal of preventing it, but also to develop more effective treatment strategies — and ultimately a cure — for the disease. BCRF-funded projects have significantly advanced our understanding of how genetics, as well as lifestyle factors such as diet and exercise, may influence a person’s likelihood to develop breast cancer. Our investigators’ work has also shed light on how and why breast cancer metastasizes and recurs. Your support fuels these breakthroughs and achievements, and thanks to your generous commitment, BCRF scientists are bringing world-class breast cancer care to people on every continent.

You can be confident that the maximum amount of your donation will support lifesaving research. Currently, we direct more than 90 cents of every dollar donated to breast cancer research and awareness programs. With our exceptionally low administrative costs, BCRF continues to be one of the most efficient organizations in the country. We have received 4 stars from Charity Navigator for nine consecutive years, and we are consistently listed as an “A+” charity by The American Institute of Philanthropy (AIP). BCRF is the only breast cancer organization to hold AIP’s top accolade, and we are currently the only cancer organization to have this ranking.

Thank you again for your support and for believing in our mission.

With warm regards,

Myra J. Biblowit
President”
