Going Commando for the Holidays – Levi Bares All.
26 10 2009
Well, after the last couple days of right wing propaganda, apocalyptic rantings, and the squelching of academic freedom, nothing quite lightens the mood like… full frontal nudity.
That’s right, Levi’s back in the news. He has made the decision, and it sounds like he will be baring all for the cameras in his upcoming photo shoot with Playgirl Magazine.
“He’s pumped! He’s ready to shock the world. The hell with fifteen minutes,” Jones told Us over the phone. “As a matter of fact, when I picked him up, he came out the house naked. I said ‘not now!’”
He came out of the house naked in Alaska, in October? Even Sarah Palin showed up in a towel.
Johnston himself took the phone for a moment to chime in, telling Us: “I just get naked. That’s what I do.”
You know, I hear he was born that way. So who can blame him? It’s who he is.
He will purportedly be raking in a cool six figures for the photo shoot and will be winging his way to the Big Apple in mid-November, so that the pictures can be “out for the holidays.” Phew. It would be sad to think of all those poor disappointed little faces on Christmas morning.
We don’t know yet what the “theme” of the shoot will be. Animal skins? Firearms? Fishing tackle? Santa hat? Whatever it is, Tank Jones, Levi’s manager assures us that they’ve been working out the details, and they’ve “come to a very happy conclusion, which we feel readers will be enthralled by.”
(Consulting my grammar book) Why, I do believe that man just ended that sentence with a proposition! At least it wasn’t a dangling participle.
This will be quite a month – Going Rogue, Going Rouge, Going Renegade…and now, Going Commando.

“As a matter of fact, when I picked him up, he came out the house naked. I said ‘not now!’”
Funny as heck!
Who is accusing him of not paying child support?

I hope he is laying on a Grizzly bear rug in front of a roaring fire in at least one shot. He can still be reading Going Rouge with Going Rogue in front of his Xmas package.

Levi watch out momma’s got her hands in your pockets.

Bristol is Teen Abstinence Ambassador for the Candie’s Foundation. My In 2009 she worked with the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy. She has duties as a paid spokeswoman.

I also read Bristol has two jobs. One or both may pay better than Candies. She might be the main bread winner in the family.
When child support is worked out they take both parents income into consideration.

she (Bristol) graduated from high school last year and is working two jobs to support her son

“”…a city in Alaska where a local non-profit made a calendar for a fund-raiser. It went really well, and they did it for two years. The calendar had business men posing in the buff, with a little covering you know where.”"
I remember that very well LOL because one man had the same name as my husband and OOOOHHHH the phone calls we got from women looking to meet him!!!! (and one man, I must add).

Many female celebrities pay alimony and child support when they make more money.
I think Levi is trying to be a significant bread winner in this situation. I don’t fault him for that.
Playgirl pay for view is not sleazy. He can go into a calendar and more from this. I think he’ll show more sense of humor than anything to shame grandma. But if he does show the Johnson in the pay for view forum only those that seek it out will see.
It does not mean lack of credibility.
With Bristol working for the Candies Foundation and two jobs I can see why he wants a six figures salary.

wickedly funny post!

If Levi made enough $$, the Palin family would probably welcome him back into the fold real quick. What a soap opera!
October 27th, 2009 at 4:02 PM
O. M. G. That was just level of levity I needed after checking today’s headlines. WOW. Now that’s something I might just have to check out. I’m just sayin’. hee hee!! Ya know, these palins and levi’s, they just keep giving, what nice folks they are! Bless their hearts.

I thought Sarah said her daughter Bristol was going to nursing school.
Of course One can’t believe anything she has to say.

I think the picture should be of him reading Going Rouge and using Going Rogue as a “Johnston cover”
I agree. That would be just too hilarious, and it would go viral in a nano-second.
I agree and hope either someone from his family,his sister.,him or Tank read a little here and go with it. Sure puts grandpa Heath in his place about working now doesn’t it? You know it sounds to me from what Levi says that he is being given a hard time and I do wonder if they let him see his son at all any more. nary a word about that.And if he wants even half shared custody he has to have money to fight for it.You can be sure the Palins and Heaths will give Bristol what she needs or wants to fight this all the way. Palin won’t want Levi to have any control where his son is concerned.I think a lot of things Levi might not have said anything about because they were personal but palin opened the door by lying and he will go from there.

I appreciate that most of you here are accepting Levi’s nude posings with a liberal attitude..Hooray for mudpups and hooray for the absolutely roll on the floor funny post from AKM.
I personally don’t care who shows what to whom, and well, if there are dollars involved then I say go for it Levi.
Levi had a job and he lost it thanks to his future mother-in-law. He seemed more than happy to follow in his Dad’s footsteps and intern as an apprentice electrician on the slope and have his future cut out for him. So, what is a handsome, fit young man to do to make some cash? (I guess he really should pursue his GED, but at this point that would only get him a job at McD’s…)
I guess he’s just playing off the fame that he himself never asked for, so good for him. I do hope that he will continue his education at some point but he does seem to have grown as a person and that is certainly important. He is light years beyond his ex-future mother-in-law when it comes to tolerance of minorities and for a boy who grew up as a self professed “redneck” that speaks volumes about his character.
I think he is certainly a work in progress and with the right tutelage he may go far in life.
We shouldn’t care if that beginning in life requires gettin’ nekkid for $.

Oh my….this post has me laughing my you know what off! I’m not kidding. Hilarious play on words.
He’s a kid, has the spotlight on him and I wish him well. I hope this doesn’t come back and bite him when he is in his 30’s or 50’s…..or 60’s. Lol!

I’ll be amazed if Tank doesn’t show up in the centerfold with Cariboy. I’ve not seen an interview, a show appearance or a photo shoot (every one reported as news) that hasn’t spotlighted ol’ Tank.
Personally, if I was going to be presented to the world as a mindless meat puppet, I’d want someone a little more Machiavellian standing behind me. Otherwise, it’s just embarrassing.
October 27th, 2009 at 6:41 PM
Err…Uhhhm….AKM, better go ahead and bust that grammar book out, again, or a dictionary. Actuall, I’m surprised noone called you on this, yet:
“…(Consulting my grammar book) Why, I do believe that man just ended that sentence with a proposition! At least it wasn’t a dangling participle.”
I think you meant ”Preposition” not ”Proposition”.
Preposition (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/preposition) =
–noun Grammar.
any member of a class of words found in many languages that are used before nouns, pronouns, or other substantives to form phrases functioning as modifiers of verbs, nouns, or adjectives, and that typically express a spatial, temporal, or other relationship, as in, on, by, to, since.
Usage note:
The often heard but misleading “rule” that a sentence should not end with a preposition is transferred from Latin, where it is an accurate description of practice. But English grammar is different from Latin grammar, and the rule does not fit English…

ROTFLMAO, Great post AKM and such inspiring comments. you ALL are too funny for words. I remember the morning Burt Reynold’s nekkid pic came out. All us young women file clerks pooled our lunch monies. Sent one clerk to sneak out to purchase a copy of the magazine. She came back, empty handed because it was already sold out. So we directed her to another place, yep we all got any eyeful (well, almost the full monte).
Later, I had a poster of Bullwinkle, the cartoon moose, with a catcher’s mitt in front of the Johnson, captioned “Eat Your Heart Out Burt Reynolds!”
I can’t blame Levi for taking advantage of this opportunity. He will make more money in one photo shoot than working a few years at McDonalds. Not only did SP blow his job by her mouthiness, no way could he fudge on a job application about his level of education, after the ensuing news uproar. Go Levi!

“…It does not mean lack of credibility.

The only thing lacking credibility is Bristol working as Teen Abstinence Ambassador for the Candie’s Foundation or the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy.
Of course, in terms of absurd irony she matches her mother.

@ aha #64
“proposition”, I thought, was part of AKM’s little play on words. Most of us didn’t need to dissect to get the idea.

Abstinence. It makes the heart grow fonder towards it’s true meaning when one has already pushed one or two babies out the old birth canal.
Not that the birth is the hardest part….if one is minding one or two small infants then Abstinence truly shows its’ golden heart.
October 27th, 2009 at 8:51 PM
don’t bite on aha’s bait……… just my two cents.
October 27th, 2009 at 9:02 PM
@ 69, Say NO to Palin
Hey, thanks for the heads up. Didn’t realize and will watch out for future reference.
October 27th, 2009 at 9:10 PM
I can just picture Gilda Radner saying “I just don’t get it. What is all this fuss about dangling part, disciples?”

DavidinEagleRiver – you are showing your age, and in my spitting out coffee laughter, so am I!!! Thanks!!!

We all know how competitive Sarah has been. After Levi does the Playgirl spread, can we expect Sarah to do Playboy or course for a much larger fee than Levi? In her own mind, she would be showing Levi up!
