The Girl Scouts, among others, have expressed disdain for Burton's new "Love" line of snowboards, which feature pictures of Playboy pin-ups from the 1970's.

“When you really think about it, it’s a young man standing on top of a naked woman’s body,” said [Nicole] Zarrillo, 38, an office manager for a nonprofit based in Burlington, also home to Burton’s headquarters.

Well... I suppose that's one way of looking at it. It's a bit of a stretch, but whatever.

I guess I just don't have enough time to get all excited about pictures on snow boards. It's just hard for me to get all excited about it.

I guess if they are going to get all offended over Pin ups on snow boards maybe they need to get all excited and offended over Pin ups being used as nose art on Military aircraft ... after all, someone somewhere is going to be shooting at that.

Bah, I think they need to find a better / more important issue. Just saying...
