True -- I have a good ratio which makes people think I am thinner than I am.

AFA this

A conservative Christian activist group said Monday that it had suspended its boycott of Ford Motor Co.

The American Family Association, which is based in Tupelo, Miss., announced the boycott only a week ago, calling Ford “the company which has done the most to affirm and promote the homosexual lifestyle.” Ford extends benefits to employees’ same-sex partners, offers to make donations to gay advocacy groups when their members buy specific automobiles, sponsors gay pride celebrations and advertises in gay-oriented publications, part of what it says is an important diversity outreach.

It is currently calling for action against the Carl’s Jr. hamburger chain (to protest its racy ad featuring Paris Hilton), Kraft Foods (for its sponsorship of the 2006 Gay Games), Mary Kay Cosmetics and Old Navy stores (for advertising on ABC’s prime-time soap opera “Desperate Housewives”) and NutriSystem Inc., the weight-loss company (for airing its own salacious TV ad). What the hell is wrong with Desperate Housewives?

In more than 20 years of activism, the organization has also taken on Wal-Mart Stores Inc.; the Crest toothpaste, Tide detergent and Pampers diapers brands of Procter & Gamble Co.; Volkswagen AG; Clorox Co.; MTV Networks; Abercrombie & Fitch Co.; Kmart Co.; Burger King Corp.; American Airlines; and S.C. Johnson & Son, makers of the Windex, Ziploc, Pledge, Glade and Edge brands.
You can see it's really hurting their business.
Last month, it ended its nine-year battle against Disney, which it launched because of the company’s “attitude, arrogance and embrace of the homosexual lifestyle.” Disney said it never made any policy changes in response to the boycott, and it reported higher earnings, citing increased attendance at its theme parks and strong performance from its film studio and ABC television network.

The AFA said it was moving on because “we have made our point.”

And what exactly was the point? That our members now want to go to Disneyland?

I listened to "Clocks" on the way in to work today. I felt dirty... like I'd been fondling myself on the train.

But its so damn catchy.

That said, I will not be buying any Coldplay album.*

* Bought Clocks off Itunes.

He actually gave me some jewelry so I think that technically makes him my boyfriend, but I still can't say that without feeling like I have to vomit, so I'm still holding off.
Huh. He should have muttered curses about the frozen Loonie in the ice. Uncle-fucking bastards.

He is her boyfriend bc they went away for the weekend together and had sex (presumably). THe housebreak could still be the act of someone who is just a fuck buddy (hi Mister Lipschitz!)

Not expensive. Turquoise. But pretty. He has good taste.

eta: also on another note, my friend told me this morning that I've become a lot less boring since I got separated. That is what friends are for, indeed.

I don't think a weekend away makes a guy a boyfriend. Though to be fair, it was a different situation in that we lived in different areas of the country.

I think semi-precious is a loophole.

So long as they aren't diamonds before 6 pm. That would be vulgar.

Wait a second -- isn't there some general prohibition on accepting jewelry from a man you are not related to? Does this make gwnc a [gasp] hussy?

Troubling.

Yes - it is a subcategory of "don't accept any gifts from a man you aren't related to that you won't return after you break up because they are embarrasing to remove or you can't bear to part with them." Honored in the breach and all that. I myself have some jewelry I accepted from a guy (one of those bracelets made out of linked multi-colored plastic scarab beetles. I think I was 6).
