pony - 2009 International Ms Bootblack
Pony is one of two bootblacks in residence at the Leather Rose Association in Chicago. Her work is well respected in her home community and she has a loyal Òfan clubÓ She was named Kentucky Bootblack 2006 and represented the state of Kentucky at the Great Lakes Leather Alliance bootblack contest in August, 2006 where she placed second. Pony started Òdoing bootsÓ back in her involvement with ROTC and a military honorary fraternity: The National Society of Pershing Rifles. She had no idea that it was anything other than just a part of keeping the uniforms spiffy. After becoming involved in the lifestyle, however, she was awakened to a whole new world of bootblacking. Pony is an ordained minister in a mainline Christian denomination and has a Masters of Divinity degree from an accredited theological seminary. She does not seek to separate her spirituality from her Leather life and has been fortunate to find ways to integrate the two. She is also known as Òponygirl Missy CometÓ and is is an award-winning ponygirl. She has been a ponygirl since 2004 and has been featured in Equus Eroticus Magazine as well as the ÒPonygirls at WorkÓ video and the ponyplay segment on the Playboy channel's Sexcetera (episode #62, May 2005). Pony teaches classes in ponyplay, Christian spirituality, and bootblacking. She proudly served as the event bootblack for ÒAnything for LoveÓ. She has volunteered as staff for numerous other events, including Leather Retreat, Dark Odyssey Winter Fire and the IML Bootblack Competition. As an ordained member of the clergy, she happily performs "non-traditional" and "same-sex" wedding ceremonies, along with offering counseling services to "non-traditional" couples and polyamorous families. Pony is a member of the Leather Rose Association Chicago and an associate member of the Louisville Trailblazers. You can email her at: imsbb2009@gmail.com
