What a night for breastfeeding on TV.

I am running back and forth from the 'puter to the TV.
On MAD ABOUT YOU..... there is the new mother breastfeeding.  She acts like
she gets nipped a few times, but then starts gushing about how wonderful this
is.  The only hitch in the scene is the new grandmother (Carol Burnett)
saying that it is "enough" and insisting on the feeding has to end.

After that show I switched to another channel and there was Michael J. Fox.
 The mayor says something about what he hasn't done in 29 years and asks
Michael what he was doing 29 years ago.  With the perfect timing of a
seasoned actor he thinks a second and then says, "Breastfeeding."

I think our culture is really changing...... I really do !!!
