A very news media Christmas

Saturday brings the Pomona Christmas Parade, which will wind through downtown from 10 a.m. to noon. Now, you might be going to see boxer Sugar Shane Mosley, the grand marshal, or to see the marching bands, drill teams, community floats or veterans. (You probably aren't going to see the politicians, but as in any self-respecting parade, they'll be there.)

But don't forget that yours truly and KPCC-FM "Morning Edition" host Steve Julian, who is a Pomona native, will be there too. We're set to share a ride in a vehicle with a sign that will brand us as "news media." Don't hold that against us! Come out and wave to us. We'll wave back.

Hey David, I put in a good word for all you parade people "up here" with "you know who"...I promise no rain and no wind for this great event. I always appreciate the support you show for my old ranchero, and I really like it when you goof on the people who deserve it the most. Vay Con Dios!

Glad I saw you in the parade; but why didn't you deserve big burly bodyguards (like Sugar Shane Mosley) too?

I didn't know you was in the Parade - I would have introduced myself!
