I put those asscracks (AOL) and every thing they are connected too on eternal boycott ... they are the example of our culture's worst in business ethics.

why don't you just copy and paste the story in here. Since us non AOL loving folks can't be a part of the party

Sorry about that,

Cabbage Patch Kid Maker Says Offensive Word Accidental
By Renita Crawford

Tuesday, January 4, 2005
Lucius and Tracy Robinson say their nine year-old daughter's Christmas was ruined after her favorite Christmas present came accessorized with profanity.

"It was just horrible. On Christmas morning what I saw was just horrible,” said Lucius Robinson, Diamond’s father.

Diamond even thought she was in trouble because she read the phrase.

The two words strung together at the bottom of the doll’s adoption paperwork formed an offensive phrase, beginning with the F-word.

"She said dad you need to see this and she showed it to my wife and my wife called me. They showed it to me and I couldn't believe it, “ said Robinson.

In an email to WJBF NewsChannel Six, the company that makes the doll, Original Appalachian Artworks Inc. says this cabbage patch doll was delivered by its licensee, Play Along Toys.

The company says each cabbage patch kid produced and distributed by Play Along is an individual and is assigned its own unique registration number.

A computer using a string of six numbers followed by six letters randomly generates those numbers.

Out of the over 2-million cabbage patch kids adopted worldwide this past year the makers say it now appears that this one was randomly assigned a registration number that accidentally included a string of letters that together formed an offensive term.

But that explanation may not be enough for the Robinson’s.

"We want him exposed and pretty much to let them know that a nine-year-old read what he printed,” said Robinson.

The company says it sincerely regrets that this happened and is working diligently to immediately add filters and other programming measures that will prevent this sort of thing from ever happening again.

So these people are this distraught over their 9 year-old daughter seeing something like this 293843fuckme in the Registration Number? Have they been down to her school lately? Why don't they just gouge out her eyes and pour cement in her ears if they let shit like that "ruin" their Christmas?

We all screw up every now and then.

Its just another reason for people (the Robinsons') to make an easy buck without working for it. If the doll spoke something along those lines I'd understand but the registration number? come on. There's greater tragedies.

They should hire you to give the tsunami warnings.
