>>>>I have two questions about the event:

>>>>1. How many people participating in the parade made use of Fast Food establishments or Denny’s on that day? Some places were closed or understaffed. That might aggravate a person when he/she is hungry! :)
>>>>
>>>>2. How many illegal aliens were waiting to be hired while standing at the driveways of Home Depot on May 1 st ?
>>>>
>>>>Just curious! :)
>>>
>>>Was it just here in Sacramento or was traffic considerably lighter everywhere?

>>Good question. Everyone I have talked to at work had the same experience.
>>
>>I work in Fremont and live in Sunnyvale. At 0600 the traffic was lighter than as if it was a holiday for government employees! It was such a nice commute! Now if it would be like that everyday, we could go back to having hiway 80 and 101 with only two lanes! :)
>>
>>Let me see – if the illegal aliens are expelled it will shut down the United States. Iran and North Korea are going to nuke us. There will be no more gasoline at any price. South America has threatened us – specifically Venezuela, Bolivia and Argentina, with Peru climbing on board. The pandemic will kill half of all Americans (legal or otherwise). There will be no Medicare or social security for baby boomers.

>>Would you believe these stories from Fox News? I did not make them up. It is just the paranoia we are fed. Well, it is all over so go ahead and die! :)

>These stories are on all the news wires. Here's a few more.
>
>Child predators are everywhere! Lock your kids up tight!
>Global warming is going to flood the world! Stop driving!
>Natalee Holoway is still dead! Feel really bad!
>
>How about some hits from the past?
>Global thermonuclear war could start at any time! Duck and cover!
>Global cooling! Its another Ice Age!
>Japan is buying up America! Buy "Made in the USA"!

I went to the store to buy everything made in the U.S.A. and thus save our nation! I found nothing! Everything is made in China.

More media...

Wal-Mart is bad. They sell things made in China. Buy American and reduce our trade deficit! Sell more U.S.A. manufactured goods to China to reduce the deficit.

The television commercials are great – it is the tv news that has a problem. :)
