I thought it might be inspiring. It is becoming quite fitting considering what is happening there now.



Probably should skip the knives though.

1. That was a good movie.
As goofy as some of the ninja stuff got.

Too bad we don't have an Americans for Prosperity astro-turf group supplying unlimited funding. It would be great to have 3 or 6 or 60 thousand people show up in V costumes, like the end of the movie.

2. Yes. Big rallies planned, including a tractorcade.
I'll find the info I've been given, and post it here.

4. Saturday rally
Rumor has it that 14 Very Special Legislators will be there. Willie Nelson may make an appearance also.. Should be worth the trip.

3. Here's rally info:
There will be organized rallies at noon and 3 p.m.


If you are driving to Madison, there will be shuttle buses running from the WEA Trust parking lot (45 Knob Road, Madison) to the Capitol and back beginning at 10 a.m. with the last bus returning from the Capitol at 8 p.m. The buses will run continuously with no specific pick-up or drop off times as traffic varies the travel time throughout the day.

Also these shuttles

Madison Bus SHUTTLE (Kobussen School Bus)
>
> Start Time: 11:00 am
> Stop Time: 7:00 pm
> 1) Westside 2 buses: AFSCME
>
>
> 2) Eastside 4 buses: East Towne Mall (In Lot By Dick’s Sporting Goods)

The problem with these is that the tractorcade is starting at 10am. If you want to get there to see it, the 11am shuttle will get you there a little late.

If you want to take your car downtown, I did hear that Monona Terrace had parking last weekend. It's not all that cheap, but it's a block and a half away from the Capitol on John Nolen Drive. WARNING: John Nolen is on the route for the tractorcade. You probably want to plan on getting there before 10am or after 11am if you want to avoid the traffic jam this will create.

There are also parking ramps scattered around the capitol for several blocks and more toward the university at the end of State Street. If you're there early enough in the day, you should be able to get something there.
