Yeah, things got a little wild Halloween night at the Taco Bell on 41 in Ft. Myers. Here, a tomato picker who has grown old before his time picking at the same piece rate for over twenty years howls his lament about sub-poverty wages in the fields.

He was joined on this night by a gang of ghouls and goblins hellbent on awakening the Ft. Myers fast-food zombies that roll into Taco Bell without so much as a moment's thought given to the human misery wrapped inside every chalupa.

Of course, Death couldn't stay away from his favorite fast-food joint, protest or no protest. And he couldn't keep his icy cold hands off Lady Liberty, either. "If she does not step off Taco Bell property right now, Liberty must die!" he moaned menacingly.

Here we see Death in a more lighthearted moment, catching up with his old friend, the Marlboro Man. The stories these two could tell! Like Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen, or Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger for you non-sports buffs, these two have set the standard for teamwork for years...

Of course, teamwork only goes so far when the Marlboro Man gets pulled away by this pretty lil' Mariachi...

And speaking of attractive couples, this pair certainly set tongues wagging Halloween night!

But let's turn the page for a moment to those for whom Halloween fun is truly meant... and this is not an optical illusion! This beautiful young lady barely reaches the nose on one of the biggest, most evil looking tomatoes Ft. Myers has ever seen.

 

 

 

 

 

And here...Oh, why can't we even have a few moments of innocent fun? Just as the kids were getting their time on the site, this guy has to stick his nose into the picture. Hey wait, who is that? Why it's Resident Bush, joining the protest all the way from Washington, DC!! And what's that sign he prepared specially himself for the event? "What's good for farmworkers is good for America"?! He doesn't really mean that. Some politicians will say anything just to please the public. Good thing Lady Liberty is keeping the children safe from this mendacious man.

Well, he can't be all that bad... here he's trying to help convince a particularly nettlesome police officer that this is indeed a patriotic protest. Either that or he just doesn't even know what his own sign says (a far more likely explanation...).

*** ...We interrupt this report to apologize for the partisan and, frankly, disappointingly meanspirited tone that this website has taken in the past two frames. We have corrected the problem and return you to a more appropriately crafted report. Thank you for your patience -- Your Office of Homeland Security at work... ***

 

 

Here we see some more darling children join the fun!

No really, these kids were on their regular trick or treat route and passed by the protest. When they heard the message they stopped collecting candy and started dispensing wisdom to Taco Bell consumers about the injustice in Southwest Florida's tomato fields. If only Florida's adults always had such good hearts and open minds...

 

 

 

OK, two last shots -- one obligatory scary photo... yeah, Death... Taco Bell... whatever... It's a great photo, so we had to include it, but you probably get the point already...

... and one unbearably cute photo of the kids that joined us for a Halloween they will undoubtedly remember for years to come!
