A New Challenge
Mack Event: Build a fort
Remember when you used to turn the coffee table upside down and line it with pillows only to drape the whole thing with a sheet or a blanket and hide out all day in your secret fort?
Wasn’t that the coolest thing ever? Let’s revisit!
Everyone build a fort and send me the pics/specs of what you construct!!
February Mack Event
Hey! Happy February!
It’s the month of love, or at least that’s what I equate February to, and so I think the Mack Event I would love to highlight is “Steal a kiss.” Find a kiss, whatever that kiss is, and post it on my site! I have seen some of the most amazing pictures of strangers kissing… I have come across some of the most beautiful lips that stained a napkin in a bar… So steal a kiss! Find one and post it!
Ciao, amore!

Haiku
A little late– sorry, guys. Those of you who have a Juicy Peach calendar might have recognized I’m a little late announcing the next Mack Event! Now, I’m playing a bit of catch up and will announce it: the next celebratory event is to write a haiku on your bathroom wall! Remember writing haikus for your third grade poetry project? I certainly do, and they always seemed so peaceful and serene.
So I’m trying to bring some of that peace and calm into my somewhat insane existence right now. I thought, “Just focus on a haiku.” It’s nice to have something so simple to focus my manic energy on, you know? A simple 5-syllable line, then a 7-syllable line, then another 5-syllable line are all the poem requires!
So either write your own or someone else’s, but take a bit of time to enjoy the simplicity of this beautiful little poem. Oh, and the whole bathroom part is just to keep things interesting… And also because I’m a little tired of reading about the horrors of capitalism and that Johnny loves Mary on the bathroom walls of my favorite restaurants… But since I can’t exactly encourage you all to deface public property by writing on public bathroom walls, I figured I would suggest writing it on your own wall. but the point really is just to write it.
OK! Have fun, and photograph, scan, or just send in whatever you have written! I’ll submit mine ASAP, but here is an example to let you know what the darn poems look like in the first place.
Ciao,
Allison

Happy New Year!
HAPPY NEW YEAR! Welcome to 2008, a year of change, growth, inspiration and excitement! I am so jazzed about the prospects of this year that I could do a cartwheel! That, oddly enough, leads me to the next “MackEvent”!
Start the new year off right by doing a physical example of how you feel about the new year! In the Juicy Peach calendar I titled the event, “Do an acrobatic move in public.”
Really what this means to me is to film, photograph, draw, or use whatever medium you want to show yourself physically manifesting the way you feel about the new year!
I wanna see how you are feeling about the next 12 months ahead! Show me what you got!
Ciao,
Allison
