donderdag 1 mei 2014 Up with The Whispers - Rock Steady. Yeah! Neil deGrasse Tyson is a lead singer. Watch KING 5 News. It's Maaaaaay Day! Small businesses, police brace for May Day marchers. Socialist City Council member Kshama Sawant said she’ll join the march for immigrant and worker rights to promote her campaign for a $15 minimum wage. She urged marchers to remain peaceful. For myself, on this day, I really wonder who will advocate for the downwardly mobile. I'm tired of the austerity mentality. Frozen wages. Global economics. Who's Got the Political Will to Save the Middle Class? Watch video of May Day Mayhem 2013. Wow! It got pretty rough. Up to Denny. #62 bus to Mercer. Hang out a little while in SLU Park. It's already 67 degrees. I bet that we beat a record. I'm with the Trailblazers. I love to draw. "You really stay inside the lines, Mike," comments my friend Finn. Behold! I think that it's TC-14.

Back with the Dolphins. After playing outside with spray bottles, they head inside and play with felt boards. Nice and cool here. We read a book - A Band Of Coyotes. Lunchtime is a little crazy with the Sea Otters. What's goin on? Nap time is quiet... Thank heavens. Streetcar to d'town. I notice something odd. The Starbucks in the US Bank is almost empty, but it's open. More than last year, businesses have closed and boarded up early for May Day Mayhem. It's International Workers' Day! That's all. Nobody wants to work in that Starbucks store anyway. Meh. The marchers are coming.

At lest 7 arrested in Seattle anti-capitalist march.
