The guy with the sign that draws parallels between our jobs, bucks, and troops talked about being unemployed for four years. His job was one of the many that went off to India or China with all the other technical work that used to be done by people like us around here.

That picture of Bush is really a collage of pictures of soldiers who have died in Iraq. The caption reads "In memory of the soldiers who gave their lives to fight Bush's war in Iraq. May they rest in peace." To give you an idea what it looks like up close, I've added some detail from Bush's temple to her right. Thinking about it reminds me of the time a guy told me "Presidents sometimes kill a lot of people when they sign something."

     



  

     

  

    

Channel 7 interviewed Lenny and took some footage of everybody having a great time getting cars to toot their horns as they went by. 

  

After we rallied on the corner of Fremont and Mary for an hour or so we marched down to the recruiting center and ceremoniously "DON'T DIE FOR A LIE"-ed the place.



  

The original plan called for taping this sign to the recruiting station's front window, but the cops said "don't do that".  The Custers held it like that while Lenny gave a speech. He pointed out that this war was based on the thinnest excuses, and called on young people to not join up with the U.S. Army, Navy, Coast Guard, Air Force, or Marines. Then he urged the Sunnyvale residents among us to get together and form a "Sunnyvale Voices for Peace" group. Rob and Roy recorded it all for their cable TV shows. If I find out where and when the tape will be broadcast, I'll update this paragraph with that info then.

       

  



Through it all this Sunnyvale Police Officer watched us from the far side of the parking lot.
