Never mind that the lawsuit was deceptive.

Never mind that this guy fraudulently asked for donations for a lawsuit he didn't intend to file. Were I a donor in support of the lawsuit, I'd be pretty pissed at his little stunt.

At least he got his message across, and that's what's important, right?

If he wanted attention, perhaps he could have organized a rally and tried to get some media attention. Perhaps he could have done with a simple press release. Or, maybe he could have done like the rest of us when we want our voices to be heard: speak out to those we meet, write letters, etc. This? This is just some chickenshit way to get personal attention and make him feel good about himself because he's putting pressure on evil corporations.

This guy is little better than the 9/11 hijackers. They had a problem with American culture. So, instead of working hard for legitimate change, they took the coward's path to personal glory.


The end NEVER justifies the means.

Bob just forwarded me the link to the Oreo Transfat Lawsuit Site which has been update to point out that this former (reborn) dimwit has taken his head out of his you-know-what. Good grief. From the Libertarian Party Website:
"It's clear that when it comes to protecting public health, the free market is way ahead of the food police," Neale said. "The fact is that judges, politicians, and litigation-happy health nuts pose a far greater threat to your freedom than Oreos pose to your health."
Can I get an AMEN!

I've decided I'm not shopping at Meijer anymore. I'm totally ticked that the Pharmacist today thought that she needed to police my daughter's medications. It seems that she thinks she knows more than El's doc and felt the need to let me know her disdain at his (the docs) choice of psychotropic medications for my five year old. Well, I might shop there, but I'm not getting my Rx filled there any longer. May not sound like much but, in the year 2003 our families medications have totaled over $4000 (before insurance). I figure that's a lot of business to take elsewhere. Teach that lady to mind her own business! Ha, like she cares.

It's raining again and I'm totally freakin' sick of it. I forgot to schedule my tanning appointment - thus it's raining.

This isn't so hard. I think I may actually have the hang of this already. While I was searching for my links I found this astounding article. It's good to know that our government isn't the only one out there that likes to have it's hand in everything, including our refrigerators. I mean, really, "Canada needs to restrict junk food ads"? I wonder, my big downfall is Little Debbie snack cakes . . . oh, you know, the Double-Decker Oatmeal Pies? Yeah, well, anyhow I haven't seen a commerical for those . . . in, well, ever. So, you go ahead and control those big mean bad corporations. Let's see if I (or my neighbors to the north) quit eating oatmeal pies! Just try and stop us!
O.k., so I did it. I finally started a blog. I figured everyone else is doing it - I should too. Now . . . trying to find something interesting to say.

So get this - it's actually sunny outside today! I can't belive it. I had given up and scheduled a tanning session and everything. I mean, don't get me wrong, I don't particularly want skin cancer (hey, I don't want lung cancer or another stroke either, but *puff puff* that's another topic for another day), but after 14 days of rain I start to get a little blue. Anyhow, I figure it's like Murphy's Law. If you want the sun to come out - just schedule a tanning session.
