Madeline MOSTLY ignores my Christmas tree, but maybe I should try this. She definitely won't touch the most expensive cat toy I've ever gotten her. It's the same thing with her food - she won't eat the expensive stuff, but chows down on the cheap food.

I saw this article in the Post today. I like the explanation provided by the Ohio governor's office:
"The governor supports abstinence education," Keith Daily, a spokesman for Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland (D). "What he does not support is abstinence- only education. We are asking to put the money toward abstinence in the context of a comprehensive age-appropriate curriculum."
Amen to that! It's just stupid to not teach kids about STDs, contraception, etc. Because even if someone abstains from sex until marriage, you still need to know all that stuff! Some of our politicians are so narrow-minded when it comes to issues like this.
