So I followed the link, and went to the AFA site and sent this letter.
Dear President Conant:
I request that Campbell Soup Company continue to promote tolerance and equality and remain active and positive in the culture war. I certainly hope you will honor my request by placing more ads in Queer publications like "The Advocate" and other mainstream National Media. Campbell's should take sides in a political battle, and please continue to put your efforts in producing the finest products you can. (BTW can you make a few Gluten-Free ones for us Celiacs? I miss my chicken soup! Thank you!)
I will tell American Family Association to shove their intolerance up their collective asses. I would love to continue to purchase your products. Thank you for taking the high road!
Sincerely
Me
Should you want to send an email directly to the Campbells President its: douglas_r_conant@cambellsoup.com
I liked the idea of hijacking AFA site, but there's no way in hell I want them getting my contact info.

Cheap funny music concert.
Dec. 19th, 2008 10:13 amBeing hosted by the Palo Alto Unitarian Univeralist Church. Joe and I are seriously thinking of going...this is the man who came up with the song "Ted Haggard is completely heterosexual"
If you missed Roy Zimmerman at Di strict Assembly, this is your big chance! And if you heard him then, you already know you want to hear him again.
"PeaceNick" is the satirical songwriter's send-up of the joys, pains and absurdities of the holiday season. It's ninety minutes of family-friendly, hilarious and heartfelt songs.
Half the proceeds go to the programs of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Palo Alto. Children of all ages welcome, childcare an option for infants/toddlers. Di rections to UUCPA are at www.uucpa.org.
Happy "Christma-Hanu-Rama-Ka-Dona-Kwaanza"!
Okay, so next month at school is Cowboy! Month. All the lessons will be around cowboys (this month was a bakery) kinda cute. Ike brought home a cowboy hat and a scarf for us to decorate for "Icicle Ike". He just came in asking what the scarf was for.
So I starting showing him the various uses of hankys. Neckerchief, smoke inhibitor for fire, mask for holdups, kleenex. Then I remember something...the Hanky Codes.
Ike brought home a light, almost neon green hanky. After looking it up I found out that a light green hanky can mean he's either hustling or looking to pick up a hustler, depending on which pocket it gets stuffed into.
I am amused.
I wonder if the kindergarden teacher thought of this.
Probably not.

Note to self, I don't think she picked this up from Martha Beth, I just checked her books (class taken in 2003?2004?) and it wasn't in any of them.
