MARCH 6TH: SOMBRERO, OVER THE RAINBOW...

    Ever been to a protest?  Yea, I have been to a few.  The most recent protest I went to was for the writer's strike.  It was actually really boring... they didn't have much to say ---- nicely done PK, HIGH FIVE!.  Before then, I had been at two protests in back-to-back days.  One was at the UN in New York and it was a Mexican-American rally to lower the fence.  Then, the next day, I had to go to San Francisco for a job interview.  That is believable, right?  Anyway, just go with it, it makes this rant better.  There was another rally the day after a tiger jumped over its enclosure at the zoo, and attacked two Mexican American boys.  The rallying cries were both very different:

 

'PRESIDENT BUSH ORDERS STIFFER BORDER REGULATIONS AS THE U.S. CONTINUES TO RAISE THE FENCE BETWEEN AMERICA AND MEXICO...

'TIGER JUMPS OVER ENCLOSURE AT SAN FRANCISCO ZOO, MAULING TWO MEXICAN AMERICANS.  OFFICIALS SAY FENCE WAS LOWER THAN REGULATION...'
