After the Cubbies game, we'll be jamming the open mic with new pals Scott & Paul. This is a borrowed acoustic

Peace Vigil to close SOA/WHISC
|
Over 10,000 people will converge on this fort at the end of 185S with hopes to shut down the
School of Americas (now known as Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation- new dull name for same killing
methods). The SOA has trained soldiers who go on to become murdering & raping machines who overthrow democratically
elected governments in latin america for the benefit of US foreign policy. Really, this is no joke, Manuel Noriega is
one- check out School of Americas Watch on the internet. We will have a funeral procession for all those who have died
or disappeared b/c of this terrorist institution and some protestors will be arrested for stepping on to "their private territory'.

We haven't decided yet, but I'm sure it'll be loud and annoying, non-violent and peaceful.
I`m sure it will only be snapping a photo (of all the tourists there gauking at a rich man`s loaner house) because we are
easily intimidated by the men carrying huge black guns.

A friendly voice answered the phone and asked if I was from Canada. The next thing we

It`s only fair after visiting the White House & being in the capitol city of Canada, that
we see their parliament buildings. Not so many men with black guns roaming around...The only building that is fenced
in & unwelcoming is the US Embassy.
