hey there, you, who wants to do something good today: you know what you should do? you should call kraft, and tell them that you're happy that they're sponsoring the 2006 Gay Games in Chicago (which looks like the olympics, but much more gay and much, much more fun).
nasty hate-filled christian groups (sheesh, i hate that that's not a joking phrase) are sending kraft lots of nasty emails and making calls, and it would be really nice if they also got messages praising their decision to support the event (trust me, corporations do count the messages they receive, even if they don't react).
you can reach the fine folks at kraft via the contact us section of their website, or you could call them at 1-800-323-0768. the christians are calling, according to their rallying emails, so if you can call, please.

oh yeah, and steve and i only have so much room at our place, so if you're going to come out for the games, it's first-come, first-serve. reserve now!

on a very different note, my pal amy sent me this link, which is to the gallery of regrettable food. i had seen the book, but i hadn't seen the website. it is horrifying, but it is worth a few minutes of your time. you *will* laugh.

i wish i had $1000 just sitting around, so steve and i could see 'Revenge of the Sith' with our friends the Midwest Garrison 501st Legion Stormtroopers. (sigh). life just isn't fair!

work-related plug: check out the new fruit and walnut salad thing at mcdonald's. i know i sound cheesy, but it's actually good. i love the fact that it's something healthy that i can get when i'm on the run, and i know (if you like fruit) that you will like it too. *trust me*
