accidental peace action

Friday from 5:30 6:30, Mountain View (CA) Voices for Peace has a "vigil" at the intersection of El Camino and Castro. Last weekend I showed up with my electric peace sign, visible blocks away. Tian posted his picture of it from the Dec 6 protest in downtown San Jose. I always forget to bring my camera to these things.

Afterwards, we strolled down Castro Street for dinner at Queen House mom & pop chinese. Merriam had her big IMPEACH BUSH posterboard because her car was out of the way. So here we were walking through the restaurant district on a chilly Friday evening with a big IMPEACH BUSH sign.

A guy crossed the street to ask us for a picture. He was from Brazil, visiting Google because of one of their Summer of Code projects. People were honking and waving. We'd almost passed a crowded yuppie bar before we realized everybody inside was waving and clapping.

Sometimes things just happen.
