Yes, my horns were out last week and everybody/everything was getting on my nerves. I could not even believe that I got into a brief Internet scuffle over this!

Arizona" has a flavor known as "Southern Style Sweet Tea" but if you look closely on the front of the can there is a picture of a

The most I see is "Little Red Riding Hood." Some folks are offended by the image of the plantation. It's not like those huge estates don't still exist. I asked some of the folks who jumped on the "I see a mammy" bandwagon if they were offended by weddings where people "jump the broom" - 'cause best believe that if I got married I would not be adding that "slave tradition" to my ceremony.

There are times when I can be more militant than most. This is not one of those times.

There ain't no damned mammy on this product!
