Gauntlet Status: Thrown

Oh, it's ON now, baby.

NJ Dive Medic has joined the Kilted to Kick Cancer fundraising challenge, and hatched a devious plot to have his employer match any contributions made in his name.

Brilliant!

Jay G. has pledged to wear a skirt – not a kilt, but a girly skirt – if he gets enough donations to win the challenge.

It has become clear to me that there is no limit to how low some people will stoop to win a blog challenge to raise money for charity. And I'm pretty okay with that, actually, because when it comes to reaching new lows of personal debasement for a good cause, I am the king, baby.

So I'm going to do them one better:

If you guys put me over the top in fundraising for Prostate Cancer Foundation and/or LiveStrong, I'll post a picture of myself…

… in drag.

Not just a dress, mind you, but makeup, heels, bra, fake boobs… the works. I'll either have The Ex drag up my old photo of me in the Womanless Beauty Pageant, or I'll do an entirely new photo. I'll put up a big photo here on my blog, and keep a smaller one of it as my profile pic for the entire month of October – which is, incidentally, Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

And I'll throw down an additional challenge to these two guys:

Jay, if you top me in donations, I will have a tee shirt made that says, "Everything I know about guns, I learned from reading MArooned." I'll wear it at Blogorado, and post a picture of me wearing it as my profile pic for the rest of 2011.

If I top you, you have a similar tee shirt made that says, "The best I can shoot is Minute-Of-Berm," and you post it as your profile pic for the rest of 2011.

And to NJ Dive Medic, I will offer this: If you top me in donations, I will wear a shirt at EMS Today that says, "When I grow up, I want to be like NJ Divemedic," and I'll wear it on our live EMS Newbie podcasts from the Promed Podcast Studio. If I top you, all you have to do is just buy the first few beers at whatever blogger meetup they have.

So whaddaya say, fellas? Are we on?
