Did you know that Paul Wellstone....
Died in a Bus, with his wife and daughter, because they were shot down while flying over North Vietnam during the Vietnam war?

I am not even making this up, that is what I was told last night by a homeless guy...

When I questioned what Paul Wellstone was doing in a bus, over north Vietnam, with his family, he insisted he was right...

2. Have you been hanging in GD: P again?
(btw, I knew Paul Wellstone. I was a Wellstone delegate to the 1990 DFL state convention, and worked with him on a campaign in 1988).

5. I wish I had been lucky enough to have met him
From what I have heard anecdotally and read, he seemed like a great person to be around.

4. A flying bus?
So we were secretly fighting the Vietnam war with FLYING BUSES?

And if he died in the Vietnam war, which ended in the 70's, that means that all through the 80's and 90's...

HE WAS A ZOMBIE!
