“Kellogg’s had no problem signing up Phelps when he had a conviction for drunk driving, an illegal act that could actually have killed someone,” said Rob Kampia, the group’s executive director. “To drop him for choosing to relax with a substance that’s safer than beer is an outrage, and it sends a dangerous message to young people.”

Please take time today to contact the Kellogg Corporation.

There are several ways you can make your opinion known to the company.
You can call Kellogg’s main telephone number during east coast business hours, Monday through Friday, at: (269) 961-2000 or toll free at: 1 (800) 962-1413.

When contacting the company, please be polite and concise. Tell them:
“Hi, my name is _____________ and I’m a frequent consumer of Kellogg’s products.
Nearly one out of two Americans has used marijuana. This includes tens of thousands of prominent, highly successful Americans — including our current President. Michael Phelps should not be stigmatized nor condemned for private behavior that he, and millions of others, engage in.
The majority of the public, as well as those in the media, are standing behind Michael Phelps and so am I. I will no longer be purchasing Kellogg’s brand products until your company reverses its decision and reinstates Michael Phelps as your spokesperson.â€
Thank you for standing up against the needless discrimination of cannabis consumers.

“…When the primaries were all going on I was asked what I thought of the idea of having a woman in the white house, I said I wasn’t sure it was such a good idea since every 28 days those terrorist better run deeper into those caves… When I was told I should run since I know how to talk to people, I told them there was already enough boobs in the White House they did need any more…†~ Dolly Parton

This is a local story from my old hometown in Indiana that I just came across that made my day, not because it’s the story tell me she was dead, but because it appears she treated everyone the same regardless who they was and it wasn’t “just me†she hated. I had to deal with this mean old lady a few times and she was just mean to kids, she was mean to me in the 1980’s and she was mean to my dad in the 1950’s and she took no guff from anyone as proved by this story.

A Lafayette legend, Elinor May Everett Stingley, 101, died late Tuesday night in the local home of her great-granddaughter, Lisa Yates. Stingley had been ill for a few weeks.
For nearly 50 years, Stingley was called the “Cone Lady” at the Original Frozen Custard next to Columbian Park.
Stingley, who was born and raised in Lafayette, was known for telling customers, “We do not mix flavors.”
She also would tell people it was “a cone line only.” She made no exceptions to customers.
Her granddaughter, Aleeah Livengood of Mulberry, said “granny” would not change the rules even for the rich and famous.
Singer Axl Rose, who grew up as William Bailey in Lafayette, gained fame with the rock band Guns N’ Roses. He once visited Arni’s and the Frozen Custard in the early-’90s at the height of his fame.
“We never called him Axl. He was always Bill Bailey to us,” said Livengood. “He went to the cone line because the other line was long.
“Finally, it was his turn, and he asked granny for a strawberry sundae. She told him to go to the other line. He said, ‘Do you know who I am?’ Granny said, ‘Yes, William. I know who you are. Now get to the other line.”
Axl Rose just laughed after getting a rise out of Stingley. He had lived with his grandmother behind the Frozen Custard and became good friends with the Cone Lady.
