I use these to perk my mood up throughout the day. I deal with customers on the phone...

Have you seen Kraft's new ad campaign? It runs through 23 August and it's disgusting.

It is a contest offering $25,000 in prize money to fund a wedding or divorce. Couples have to send in a video about Miracle Whip and how it influences their relationship--that's the gist.


There is a petition to sign against it here.

And this article explains it more--but wow those commenters are mean!

I read the article, and this is my .02,  :)

No, they're NOT being "mean" RCR; these commentators are telling it like it IS...and people should stand up in this way against something this thoughtless.

You should always be willing to stand up for what you believe; whether it's unpopular or not...it's  a necessary part of who we should become.

It's NOT right what Kraft is doing; and they should be called to the carpet to account for themselves...maybe they'll start thinking once they're hit hard in the moneybags, because people can choose to not only sign the petition, but also boycott their products in retaliation.

Our marriage survived His MLC, with the help of the Lord.
I have learned that true strength is built through the trials we endure.
There is hope as long as you love your MLC spouse, and, are willing to learn the  life's lessons that are set before you as a result of this crisis.

I don't know how many of you live near a Borders that is closing, but a lot of their self-help and relationship books are 50% off or more. My local Borders still has a good supply...

Bumping to say that my local Borders is now up to 60% off on a lot of books, but the supply is starting to get a bit thin.

Hey ... great thread, get so fed up with thinking about that other stuff.

I love music, it can lift me when I'm down, my favourite guitarist, who I've seen playing live 3 or 4 times now ... is Tommy Emmanuel, I've met him too and he is one of the nicest and kindest people, so humble too  here's a link to listen to him play, I can't help but feel good when I listen to his music.

He wrote this song for his daughter Angelina who is 13 years old now. (same age as mine!)
