LORYN AND THE MILWAUKEE MANHUNT
September 06, 2006 | | Comments (9)
Since its limited release last holiday season, the powers of the Cordarounds reversible smoking jacket have become borderline semi-legendary. Gentlemen the world over have sent countless ho-hum happy hours spiraling into flights of Hefnerian debauchery, simply by turning their corduroy jackets inside-out-- and revealing their silky-smooth secret.
Now we're making jackets for the ladies.
We have to test them first, of course, and for that we’ve turned to our intrepid friend, Loryn*. This Friday, she embarks on a quest to harness the powers of her jacket to secure a hearty, Midwestern male in the name of Science. And what better place to do so than the new boozing capital of the United States -- Milwaukee.
Last week, Cordarounds held a Fun Raiser at the The Blackhorse to send this dauntless San Francisco single on A MILWAUKEE MANHUNT TO FIND THE MYTHICAL MAN OF THE MIDWEST. Thanks to many generous and somewhat perplexed patrons, we raised $420 (see below).
You can help, too! Wherever you are, just wear your Cordarounds Friday night as a sign of support. And if you want to contribute directly, red Cordarounds t-shirts will be available for purchase through this weekend, with each and every cent going toward Loryn’s travel fund.
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and the WKTI morning show have heralded the imminent arrival of this brave adventurer, and Cordarounds is confident that her exploits will soon supplant Baby Suri as the news of the day.
If you live in Milwaukee or know someone who does, the Manhunt begins tomorrow night at 6 at Sauce (217 North Broadway, in the Third Ward).If you have any last minute Milwaukee Manhunt travel tips or encouragement for Loryn, don’t hesitate to leave them in our blog.
To adventure!

*Ok, there’s a chance we may have goaded her into doing this.

Loryn-
We, the proud people of Minnesota, encourage you to surpass that cesspool and head directly to the northern Mecca of Minneapolis.
Yours truly,
Ted the Viking

I highly recommend trying to find a man with a Harley. Since 8 out 10 men in Milwaukee own one, this should be easy to accomplish. Take my word for it, there is nothing sexier than straddling a hog with your arms wrapped around a Midwest man's beer belly, as you race down the highway. Grrrrrr.

Dear Loryn,
Whatever you do, don't listen to Minnesotans. They love Herring more than they love women. And they wear their cords vertically.

Hey ladies! Just want to remind you that, coincidentally, I'll be performing with Johnny Hungwell, P.P. Steed and the rest of the HunkNation Dance Revue this Saturday at the Manhunt Cabaret in Oconomowoc. See ya there!

Loryn - Milwaukee is not as bad as people make it out to be. Good luck, and check out the Ale House in the Third Ward if you have a chance...there always seems to be a descent selection of twenty-somethings without beer bellies there.

After dating a woman from Southern Califonia for 3 years, I feel compelled to offer advice. Milwaukee is the kind of place you can find a life partner, but it won't happen in a night at the bars. You really need to become a part of life here, when you understand it, it will happen.

I once had a three day conference in Milwaukee and had most incredible evenings with Milwaukee's Best.
Good Luck Girl.
