Hi All! Well, I went to the party for the debate held at Cal Expo (the state fair grounds). I shook Maria S. hand that was nice, but well, I really went there to get the skinny on Arnold. After Arnolds brief speech and watching Vladie DeVac (sp), the Sacramento Kings forward, fall down on the run way, I decided that wasn't enough excitement. I was wearing my shirt that says on the back "FERRRET LOVERS UNITE" in an arch around a big ferret, then below the ferret it reads "ELECT ARNOLD" then in smaller print "RECALL DAVIS, ELECT SCHWARZENEGGER" I have certain "privileges" at Cal Expo so I park in the back. I decided to see if I could talk to Arnold as he was leaving. I was successful! First, I asked him if he would sign my shirt and he did, right above the word "lover". Then I asked him "do you support SB89, the ferret amnesty bill?" he replied "you bet" then I asked him "if SB 89 reaches your desk as governor would you sign it?" His response "you can count on it"! I was so excited I just turned around and left. After I was about 15 feet away I realized I hadn't even thanked him! So back I went. He rolled down his window for me again. I said "I forgot something, can I shake your hand?" With a big grin on his face, he said " do you always do things in two parts?" I said "well yes, most of the time, Thank you so much for your support of the ferrets" and I shook his hand. I was on cloud nine! All excited and acting like a kid all the way home. So now California, you have your answer. He will sign the bill. We just have to get off our a** and on our feet and get him elected. Call every voting age friend and relative and ask them to vote for Arnold. Tell them you are tired of living as a criminal and they can help. Have each of them call others. If you won't be in town get an absentee ballot. If you aren't registered I think it is too late, but you could still make the phone calls. If you live out of state and know people inside of California help us out and give them a call. Ask every person you speak to, to make at least 10 more calls. Time is SHORT! Come on! No more talk, it is time for action!!!!! Do it for the love of our fur children, act NOW! Just a bundle of nerves, Mary Jo Get more from the Web.
