01/05/2007: "I Love I Love I Love My Calendar Girl ..."

You remember shop calendars, right?

Back in the day, male-oriented businesses - you know ... cars, guns, beer - would gather a bevy of scantily-clad girls, take their pictures holding the product and trying to look natural, and produce a calendar for men to hang on the wall in their garage, den or whatever space their wives let them have as their own. Sometimes the girls wore tops ... sometimes not ... and many of the calendars made stars of unknowns like Marilyn Monroe.

Technology marches on, and today the wall calendar has given way to the screensaver as the advertising device of choice. Now, for me, the screensaver became passe' the day I bought my first LCD monitor, but I still get emails from different companies with a link to let me download their latest screensaver. I'd have deleted the one from German car parts haus Febi Bilstein as well if they hadn't included the sample you see here. Holy Cheese and Rice! I have no idea who she is but ... wow! I have a sudden urge to buy German shocks ... at least I think that's what the urge is ...

Click on our mystery girl to see more, and if you figure out who she is, let me know! I'm not too old to have children ... or to date them ...

As part of my intensive research, I could tell from the other shots in the set that they were actually shot here in California, so they could be Cali models ...

So that means there's a chance?
