I don't have a problem with Mother's or Father's Day, but I don't understand spending $300+ for a gift.  A co-worker got a PS3 and he has a 3-yr old.

Eagles shirt
Eagles coffee mug
Eagles key chain bottle opener

all wrapped in the "companion" ads from the back of the Philly trash paper.

As my 11 year old son told me, it has "Dad's three favorite things: Eagles, beer, and boobs."

Ha - speaking of the Breakfast Club, has anyone seen Molly Ringwald lately?  She's on the pregnant teenager show and she got huge just like John Bender said she would.

Every time I see her I think of the "pushing maximum density" comment.

:-D
