I am such a good daughter
Earlier this year I found the perfect birthday card for my dad. He has been a truck driver for over 40 years and I found a card that plays the song, "Convoy". It is the cutest thing ever. So over the months I have been having all his friends sign it. My brother was in town for a weekend and even he signed it. I am down to having the last few people sign it. This card is FULL. My dad left here over 20 years ago and moved out of state. He still has a lot of friends here that he keeps in contact with. I can guarantee that when this card arrives at his house on his birthday, there will be tears. My dad deserves it though.

Yes, this is my job.
I am cutting out paper turkeys to hid around my department for a Thanksgiving scavenger hunt. Each turkey (or decoy) has a silly saying on the back. Here is what I came up with (and may I say it is damn hard to find things that rhyme with turkey):
Took a wrong turn at Albuquerque,
Found yourself smack dab in Turkey!
The waters were murky,
Waded through and found a turkey!
You may be odd, a bit quirky,
But you still found yourself a turkey!
Crack a smile and get perky,
You found yourself a turkey!
You're no jerky,
You found a big fat turkey!
You need better luck,
Cause all you found was this duck!
Take a lick and keep on tickin',
All you found was this chicken!

An example of ignorance
This story makes me so very angry. This is ignorance in its purest form. Where is the Christian sense of compassion for the families of these men and women? What happened to "only God can judge me"? This is why I have a huge problem with organized religion. People don't take the time to learn about their own faith and just follow someone and take on their beliefs. Find your own beliefs and make your own decisions based on education, not on what someone else tells you. I hope these people get their own special place in hell.
BALTIMORE, Maryland (AP) -- A grieving father won a nearly $11 million verdict Wednesday against a fundamentalist Kansas church that pickets military funerals in the belief that the war in Iraq is a punishment for the nation's tolerance of homosexuality.
A member of Westboro Baptist Church protests outside a veteran's hospital in Maywood, Illinois, in April 2006.
Albert Snyder of York, Pennsylvania, sued the Westboro Baptist Church for unspecified damages after members demonstrated at the March 2006 funeral of his son, Lance Cpl. Matthew Snyder, who was killed in Iraq.
The jury first awarded $2.9 million in compensatory damages. It returned later in the afternoon with its decision to award $6 million in punitive damages for invasion of privacy and $2 million for causing emotional distress.
U.S. District Judge Richard Bennett noted the size of the award for compensating damages "far exceeds the net worth of the defendants," according to financial statements filed with the court.
Church members routinely picket funerals of military personnel killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, carrying signs such as "Thank God for dead soldiers" and "God hates fags."
A number of states have passed laws regarding funeral protests, and Congress has passed a law prohibiting such protests at federal cemeteries.
But the Maryland lawsuit is believed to be the first filed by the family of a fallen serviceman.
The church and three of its leaders -- the Rev. Fred Phelps and his two daughters, Shirley Phelps-Roper and Rebecca Phelps-Davis, 46 -- were found liable for invasion of privacy and intent to inflict emotional distress.
Snyder claimed the protests intruded upon what should have been a private ceremony and sullied his memory of the event.
The church members testified they are following their religious beliefs by spreading the message that the deaths of soldiers are due to the nation's tolerance of homosexuality.
Their attorneys argued in closing statements Tuesday that the burial was a public event and that even abhorrent points of view are protected by the First Amendment, which guarantees freedom of speech and religion.
The judge said the church's financial statements, sealed earlier, could be released to the plaintiffs.
Earlier, church members staged a demonstration outside the federal courthouse.
Church founder Fred Phelps held a sign reading "God is your enemy," while Shirley Phelps-Roper stood on an American flag and carried a sign that read "God hates fag enablers."
Members of the group sang "God Hates America" to the tune of "God Bless America."
Snyder sobbed when he heard the verdict, while members of the church greeted the news with tightlipped smiles. E-mail to a friend
