Boycott Mother’s Day

Sunday is Mother’s Day, and a model has organized a boycott, according to this video:
“I will choose to disappear and forgo the one day dedicated to me,” intone two mothers in the organization’s film clip, which was directed by Turlington Burns’ filmmaker husband, Ed Burns.

No emails. No phone calls. No Facebook updates. Or at least that’s the goal.
I don't really get it. It has something to do with a minor complication that she had during childbirth. The placenta was not expelled, and had to be fished out. Looks like just a stupid publicity stunt to me, but I thought that I would pass it on.

well this is kind of a useless post. Anyway, here's a more interesting story you can comment on:

Thanks. I'll post it tomorrow. I didn't see anything about it in the Sentinel.

Too Late I already took my mother out today seeing as how we both will be busy on sunday. Besides I would not boycott telling my mother how much she means to me just because some air-headed celeb has a stick up her butt. I'm also not going to boycott spending the day with my father on father's day just because millions of men die on the job every year. He's my father and I'm going to spend time with him before...well, he isn't around to spend time with.
