A recent post by the lovely Jilanne Hoffmann reminded me that I am supposed to be heading up an Important Social Movement.
Point taken.
And now Humans Against Celebrity Kid Stories (H.A.C.K.S.) is open for business!
Click on the menu item “H.A.C.K.S. Facts” at the top of the page!
Read all about it!
Join the cause (by “liking” the Join H.A.C.K.S. page)!
Spread the word!
Only together can we put an end to awful stories — like that Christmas one by Harry Connick Jr! (I expected better from you, Harry.)
Hey, Look! A Writer Fellow! 
Yes, I checked out “H.A.C.K.S. Facts”. Count me in!
Hooray! Welcome, Mrs. P!
H.A.C.K.S. is in business!!!
Yep! Spread the word, Vanessa!
I am, like, totally down with the cause.
I knew I could count on you, Sandee!
I’d like to make one exception . . . in l970 before the whole children’s books my celebrity craze started, Fred Gwynne, of Herman Munster fame, wrote and illustrated a book called “The King who Rained.” It is delightful. He did another one called “A Chocolate Moose for Dinner.” But a children’s book by George Foreman? No thanks.
Actually, this is a conversation we’ll be having in the future. In the coming weeks I will be asking for nominees to receive the “Celebrity Book H.A.C.K.S. Seal of Approval.”
After all, Jamie Lee isn’t the only decent celeb writer out there!
But, for the moment, it’s all about getting members. There is strength in numbers! Spread the word!
BTW: Even though you are the COO, I need you to affirm your membership by liking the “Join H.A.C.K.S.” page.

Then I shall nominate Mr. Gywnne when the time comes. I got to meet him. He acted in a play my uncle staged managed. He was delightful. His Herman Munster role gave him a stigma but he was an exceptional actor.
Agreed. If I was on trial for murder, I would want him to be the judge. Tough but fair.
Oh, that is right! My Cousin Vinny is a great movie!
YES!!!!
I couldn’t have done it with out you, Madame Co-President!
BTW: Even though you are an essential member of this organization, I need you to affirm your membership by liking the “Join H.A.C.K.S.” page.

I’m on board, Mike. No H.A.C.K.S. for me… I mean, I’m a H.A.C.K. Nope. Whatever. I will spread the word. ; )
I am delighted to have your support, Anne!
Now I just need you to affirm your membership by liking the “Join H.A.C.K.S.” page.

Yay!! We need H.A.C.K.S tee shirts! 😉
Hmm. I like.
And……we’re off!!! Oh, and I second the idea of H.A.C.K.S. tee shirts!
I concur.
As a member of the executive committee, I third the idea of tee-shirts and put the membership to a vote to have Mike design them. All in favor?
OK! I get it! Tee shirts!
But first, let’s get build the membership!
Tee-shirts will help build the membership, Mike!
You might be onto something there…
Oh my gosh, that is now what I thought HACKS would be about when I saw the subject line in my email. This is definitely a cause I can get behind. EL BACKO!
