We were there, a very nice protest with a great response from passing cars and pedestrians!

Come on mothers throughout the land
Pack your boys off to old Iran
Come on fathers, don't hesitate
Send your sons off before it's too late
And you can be the first ones on your block
To have your boy come home in a box!
Come on wall street don't be slow
Why man this war is a go-go
There's plenty good money to be made by
Supplying the army with the tools of its trade
Let's hope and pray that if they drop the bomb
They drop it on Esfahan
CHORUS
Come on generals, let's move fast
Your big chance has come at last
Now you can go out and get rag heads
Good Iranian is the one that's dead and
You know that peace can only be won
When we've blown 'em all to kingdom come
CHORUS
And it's one, two, three, what are we fighting for?
Don't ask me, I don't give a damn, next stop is Old Iran
And it's five, six, seven, open up the pearly gates
Ain't no time to wonder why, whoopee we're all gonna die
My updated version of Country Joe's famous song:
The Fish Cheer/I-Feel-Like-Iβm-Fixinβ-to-Die Rag
Come on all of you big strong men
Uncle Sam needs your help again
He's got himself in a terrible jam
Way down yonder in Old Iran
Put down your books and pick up a gun
We're gonna have a whole lotta fun
Very nice!
I met the fellow who runs the Threat Advisory Report Network today at an anti-war protest, and it looks very interesting! He used to work in the intelligence community and applies those fact-finding and source researching skills to today's hot political issues.

Four images showing graphics for "50 protests / 50 oppressed States" events scheduled for February 5, 2025.
Does anyone know what organization is setting up these 50 protests / 50 States events? A huge national protest failure, possibly turning violent, would discourage further protests as well as provide the GOP with lots of great press.
I'm not looking for guesses or political posturing. TIA.
Mark your calendars for May 8-11, 2025 for the annual Big Lagoon Messabout!
We had a wonderful time fighting you Spaniards! <3
At the Apple Store on 4th St in Berkeley to see about a buzzing AirPod. May the Steve Jobs be ever in my favor!
Aaand it's that time of year again! Starting early with a cold and no voice, but hoping I'll be able to talk and perhaps even sing by the first weekend == Nov 23-34. Off to the Palace du Moo for a bit more build today.
