Mother Goose cries ‘Fowl’

   http://www.eastcountygazette.com  

Mother Goose’s feathers are ruffled at the news that the San Diego Chicken will be a guest at this year’s Mother Goose Parade. Many San Diegan’s remember the San Diego Chicken as the KGB Chicken and then as the San Diego Padre’s Chicken. This ‘fowl’ feathered friend is just one of many surprises in store for this year’s Mother Goose Parade. This year’s parade theme is ‘A Centennial Celebration,’ in honor of the City of El Cajon’s 100th Birthday. El Cajon’s Mayor Mark Lewis is Grand Marshal and the parade will be split into decades of time over the past 100 years. The Mother Goose Village will be fun for all, with a Rock Wall and a bouncy house for children as well as many vendors for early Christmas shopping for the parents. The Mother Goose Parade is always the Sunday before Thanksgiving and this year’s event falls on Sunday, Nov. 18. Parade steps off at 10 a.m. The parade draws a crowd of 250,000 people each year. See you at the parade!

Argo – a not to miss film
Review by Diana Saenger


Hollywood is the land of far-fetched ideas, big dreams and implausible situations. No one could have dreamed that one
of those ideas would be used in coordination with the U.S.
Government to rescue six hostages captured by Iran in
1979. That’s the basis of Argo, Ben Affleck’s thriller based on
true events.

  ‘Killer Joe’ – not available at most theatres for a reason
by Diana Saenger

The Jerry Springer Show has finally made it to the big screen. Only they’re renamed it Killer Joe. At least that’s what this William Friedkin (The Exorcist) film feels like before it even gets far into what they call a plot.

2012 Scion iQ — gas sipper 

 by Dave Stall

The world of little cars is upon us, every manufacturer is coming up with their version of a small urban economy car. Scion has jumped into the ring with the Scion iQ, a cute little gas sipper that is designed for urban travel. It is the smallest four passenger micro subcompact that is not even 10 feet long, which makes it the smallest four passenger in the market.
