Submitted for your review:
Rachel Corrie Pancake Breakfast

The Rachel Corrie Memorial Committee of Victoria Invites you to a pancake breakfast at Denny's Restaurant Sunday March 12 , 2006 10 am.

The Public is invited to a memorial pancake breakfast at Denny's Restaurant on Douglas Street near Finlayson, 10 am, Sunday March 12, 2006 to celebrate the life and untimely death of Rachel Corrie, Peace Activist with the International Solidarity Movement.

There will be a reading of selections from Ms. Corrie's letters and diary, followed by a ceremony at Topaz Park, where a stone cairn will be erected in her honour.

Attendees are encouraged to wear their keffiahs, and to dress in black.

No weapons, drugs, or alcohol please.
For those of you with a short memory, Ms. Corrie was the young woman who was protesting the Israeli policy of knocking down the homes of the families of Palestinian terrorists. She died under an Israeli Caterpillar bulldozer.

I know that Corrie got flattened like a pancake by a Killdozer, but is this real? this seems way way way too funny to be real.

I saw it in Monday magazine and posted at UVIC and Caosun

Leave your AK-47's at home. No need to startle The little leaguers and soccer players who will be sharing the park at the same time.

I guess it's OK to burn tires though.

Can I get strawberries and strawberry syrup on those pancakes?

A very fitting tribute visually :D
There's more. There's much more.
