The official WAR OF THE
WORLDS disclaimer
Once upon a time, (Oct 30,
1938) famed actor and director, Orson Welles, staged a radio play (no television back
then) Based on a novel by
H.G. Wells, WAR OF THE
WORLDS was broadcast as a
real-time report of an invasion
of the earth by Martians. Despite the fact that the radio station had broadcast a disclaimer
before the story went on the
air, and repeated the disclaimer during the show, many
people thought the invasion
was real.
Fast forward to 2016. The Martians are
not invading, the U.S. is not offloading
blue-helmet troops in the forest to impose
Agenda 21 on Pollock Pines, and the
THUNDER IN THE PINES RACING
CIRCUIT is not really under construction., the PONY EXPRESS 1900 ENDURANCE RACE will never be run,
and the FOOTHILL AREA RAPID
TRANSIT railroad is not being planned.
There, you’ve been warned.
HAVE YOU MISSED GOOD SIT-DOWN MEXICAN FOOD?
Just a couple of pages of their Mexican food options. Available Wednesday-Saturday.
Yeah, you see that right. Dinner too!
We will show more pages in other issues. Or just check it out yourself!
