Recently our county bfdg coalition "applied" for a christmas tree for our
annual We Care auction.   Briefly, only 70 so trees are "given" to area
businesses, offices, groups, churchs etc to decorate, they are displayed at a
local mall, and then bid upon with all monies going to the "we care" charity
which benefits united way.  This is a BIG thing here in little Kokomo and our
Coalition got a tree this year.   Upon review of entries the head -woman-
called our founder and asked if we could REMOVE the word breast from all our
stuff.  Our founder launched into reasons why that would be countereffective
and well riduculous. The head woman lady retorted...well there wont be any
obscene pictures of breasts will there??? It will have a christmas theme wont
it????  Our founder so perfectly replied...you can bet there will be a
picture of Mother Mary breastfeeding Jesus!!  --We get to keep our word
breast !!

I am so mad, should I send some sort of comment to this lady, or do I just
let it lay?
