Nanny State Ping

NAAO suggests Girl Scouts look to Boy Scouts as a model -- they're known for community service, unlike Girl Scouts singularly identified with baked goods. "Do your good deed -- while Girl Scout Cookies are on sale through March, smile at the children, offer a donation, but leave those cookies behind."

Fine, she can put her money where her mouth is - I have 15 cases ($42 per case) of Girl Scout cookies in my living room right now. Pay me for them and I will be more than happy to do what ever she wants me to do with them.....including.......never mind........

If any boxes of the Peanut Butter sandwich cookies go unclaimed, please FReepmail.

Seriously, my wife, as leader, and daughter just finished their gold award and will be celebrating in April.

So are you involved in the girl scouts, or do you just really, really, really like their cookies? ;)

This crap is going too far too rapidly.

I sit on the Board and am Treasurer of a well-capitalized non-profit organization.

We have monthly meetings, and the board is comprised mostly of business people, with the occasional kook thrown in.

The meetings are usually over lunch.

First, it was pizza. Then, it was sandwiches and soup or a fruit cup. Then it was salad and dressing. Today, the dressing disappeared because it is "chocked full of trans-fats".

I told them today I would not be coming to the noontime Board meetings anymore unless they feed us, and that something on the order of ribs and all the fixings would be in order.

If they want to promulgate a generation of skeletors, they can do it without me.

Good Lord, is there no end to the joylessness and hand-wringing?

It's too bad our manufacturing base is so small now, or these people would be working worthwhile jobs in shoe shops or textile mills.
