Well yesterday I woke up at 3:15am. It was Kid's Day again, and so I was in charge of reserving our intersection. Kid's Day is one day a year where The Fresno Bee newspaper dedicates all the proceeds of newspaper sales to the Children's Hospital here in Fresno. So what happens all over Fresno is groups get big stacks of newspapers and sell them to cars as they stop at red lights. It is a very interesting experience to drive anywhere in Fresno on this day, because at seemingly every intersection there are a bunch of people trying to "sell" you a newspaper. Most people give a dollar (which is the recommended donation), but there are a lot of people who will give a $5, $10, or $20, or you'll see people with a stack of 5 newspapers, just because they've bought one at every intersection they stop at. It is very cool. This was my second year helping with Kid's Day.
