trish331 Homemade gifts are always the best from your children. It really says "I love you". Every year my 3 kids give me homemade gifts for my birthday and mother's day. Each gift is special and I have kept every one of them.

WreckHerQuad @WreckHerQuad (52) • United States 21 Apr 08

trish331 I am sorry but some people have no common sense when it comes to right and wrong. Sounds like they should have charged her with "over-stupidity." And yes I realize that is not a word.(lol)

trish331 Peter is my fave on that show. You think he can't get any dumber and then--bam--he does something beyond stupid. My fave episode is when he decides to build a bar in his basement. Stewie ends up drunk and all h*** breaks loose.
