Hoppin' John on New Years Day for Luck
Hoppin’ John that is! Even though he’s not Southern born and bred, Keith makes a very big deal of always having Hoppin’ John every New Years Day. It’s a Southern tradition that is supposed to bring luck and prosperity for the coming year. Just watch out for the dime/penny /nickel that is supposed to be placed in the pot – don’t want to start the new year with costly dental bills LOL.
So, off to enjoy my roast chicken and Hoppin’ John and hope that it helps – heck its only the two of us so either way (he gets the coin or I get it) we’ll have good luck and prosperity for 2009 – w00t!!!!
Because of Campbell’s advertising in The Advocate, the American Family Association is starting a campaign to stop Campbell’s from promoting the ‘Gay Agenda’ (I know…I know….I STILL haven’t received MY copy either). I just have to say how freaking ironic it is that this kind of thing happens, especially when those same groups decry gays and lesbians for ‘Blacklisting‘ people or organizations that supported Prop 8 in California. So, it’s okay for them to put their money where their mouth is by boycotting Campbell’s BUT it’s NOT okay if we do it?
Clearly some people just don’t get hypocrisy – do they? I’m going to encourage everyone I know – and ask you to as well – to contact Campbell’s in FAVOR of what they are doing. I think it’s brilliant for companies to finally realize the financial impact that the gay/lesbian community has on the economy. Our community contributes $700 billion a year to this economy and I think as a rule we (gay and lesbian households) typically have more disposable income – mostly due to the fact that most of us do not have children/grandchildren to support.
SO! Make sure you contact Campbell’s (email Mr. Douglas R. Conant (douglas_r_conant@cambellsoup.com), President Campbell’s Soup Company) or call them at 1-800-442-7684 or: 1-800-257-8443 and tell them how much you appreciate being included in their target audience, I know I am!

Campbell Soup Company Embraces Homosexual Agenda
This information is from the American Family Association —–Beetle Blogger

Send an email to Campbell Soup Company President Douglas Conant. Tell him you want his company to stop supporting the gay agenda.
December 19, 2008
Dear Friend,
In the December, 2008 and January, 2009 issues, Campbell Soup Company bought two, two-page advertisements in the latest issues of the nation’s largest homosexual magazine, “The Advocate.” The ads promote their Swanson line of broth.
In one of the December ads, the Campbell Soup Company highlighted the lives of two lesbians (according to their website, they are married) with their son. The others feature New York City chefs. See the ads here.
Campbell Soup Company has openly begun helping homosexual activists push their agenda. Not only did the ads cost Campbell’s a chunk of money, but they also sent a message that homosexual parents constitute a family and are worthy of support. They also gave their approval to the entire homosexual agenda. |

Okay first off, I just want to say that this really, really is NOT for younger (Alex you should not read this) more immature people.
So if you are under 18 or easily offended then turn back NOW!
Soooo you’ve been warned – here goes. I first saw this in a thread on Gaymer – shout out to other gay geeks and comic, anime, and gaming fans and while it is not unusual for those guys to be a bit ‘out there’ I was a bit surprised…and grossed out…by this one.
One Cookbook Keith WON'T be getting!
Just because you CAN do a thing does not necessarily mean that you SHOULD do a thing. I mean come (pun intended) on for Christ’s sake! A semen cookbook???? I don’t know if this is a joke or if its real – scrolling thru the few noted receipe pages of Natural Harvest – A Collection of Semen Recipes makes me shudder. I could go no further when I got to Man Made Oysters that was it….thank you….Waiter, Check Please!
Definately would make an interesting gag gift for that ‘special’ person in your life…..I guess =X

My Mother’s Old Fashioned Lemon Pie Recipe
This recipe was developed by my mother, Margaret Cousins Matteson, of Oxford, NC, and her sister, Virginia Cousins Walters, of Petersburg, VA. I can vouch for how good it is having had it many times in my childhood. You can add more lemon juice if a more intense lemon flavor is desired.
