Knowing them, they probably will try to put some deadly gas to come out of the smoke stack that will get rid of us.  America has to get on the ball with this and start making things ourselves again.

Looks like the Chinese are trying to poison us. 

   First the dog food.  probably believe the politicians thet say Seniors have to eat dog food

   Second  the anti freeze in the toothpaste

   Thirdly  the lead paint on Thomas.

 Seems like the EPA only checks things that are made in the USA.  I hope our Chinese made trains aren't emitting some kind of cancer producing fumes!!

Our son asked where James was yesterday.  He was pretty sad about him being gone.  We told him that he was sick and had to go the hospital.

It's absolutely beyond me, that in this modern day and age that ANYONE would use lead paint, especially for children's toys.

This post is a warning about a recall that was just on the news in the SF bay area it only applys to the wood toys. the manufactor will replace just contact them. RC2 corporation. check the box for contact info. recall is due to lead paint being used.

I hope this helps remove this hazardous toy from your child or grandchilds hands before they eat some of the paint.
