Hi Chris,

Have you heard of ultraman? How is Jupiter doing? Why do you want to be a trash bag head? What are you going to march for?
Bye Chris,

boulder Joe -- I haven't heard of ultra man? Who is he? How do I meet him?

Jupiter is doing great. Right now he is snoring...very loudly. We saw a hawk today at the park....it was sitting in a tree watching the field for something to eat. I was worried it might try to eat the dachsund (weiner dog) that was trying to go down gopher holes.

I want to be a trash bag head so that I can look just like you.

The march is to try to end the war in Iraq. Bush wants to send more troops over to Iraq because he thinks it will bring peace. But then next time we try to withdraw the troops, the same thing will happen -- the people in Iraq are going to fight over who gets to be in control. I don't think guns bring peace. I think acting in a peaceful way, talking and trying to solve problems brings peace.

I think Bush should learn to use his words instead of fighting.

So the march is a way for lots of people to show that they don't think that more guns will bring peace. Martin Luther King used marches to show that it was time to let African-Americans vote. They had lots and lots of marches ...it took many years for Martin Luther King and the other people in the civil rights movement to make our country more fair. It's called non-violent demonstrations.
