Since this thread is going nowhere...
Does anyone remember a sketch from the original 70s era Saturday Night Live... I think John Belushi played a kid who didn\'t want to go to school. His dad got pissed at him over breakfast, and said he wasn\'t going to work. Then he started calling all his coworkers to tell them they shouldn\'t go to work either. Eventually the word spreads, and the entire country stays home for the day. The sketch ends with the Russians invading the US, and rushing into the kitchen to steal the kid\'s breakfast at gunpont.
I always thought that was funny as hell for some reason.
