A mock let ter from ÎFleece Boston', will send up the gigantic merger of BankBoston and Fleet Bank, which already promises layoffs of more than 5,000 workers..

Back North, Eugene, Oregon will have a party and finance tours around downtown, stopping at particularly "bad" institutions. Also planned are music, games, and murals Further down the coast, The San Francisco Bay Area is bubbling with excitement as J18 draws near. Planning is focused on the ten worst locally-based multinational multideath corporations. 2500-5000 flyers have already been printed for SF.

The Sydney J18 Collective say: 'The J-One-Eight Public Holiday will definitely be 1999's biggest anti-globalization event - a carnival, a direct action, a street festival.'

Mobile and bold squads of activists will be able to create a sense of mass agitation and excitement. There will be banner hangs on main arterial roads to Central Business District, street theatre on expressways to the city, autonomous actions targetting individual corporations, a lunchtime mass action "Anti-Business Lunch", and a 'Scumbags Tour" of corporate HQ. Also planned are a mass "Friday Night Office Party" street procession at peak hour and a special J18 Critical Mass bike ride through the business di strict.

In London the day will begin with Critical Mass cyclists riding into the heart of the beast in the City (the financial centre of London), followed by pickets of Reed Employment Agency, Smithfields meat market and McDonalds. Meanwhile autonomous groups will be hitting targets all over the City. The Association of Autonomous Astronauts are calling a protest against the militarisation of space, and International Solidarity with Workers in Russia (ISWoR), are doing actions against Gap Clothing. At midday debt cancellation activists will start off a global chain reaction - a human chain around the Treasury in Whitehall, and then thousands of people will come together for a powerful Carnival of Resistance in the financial Square Mile organised by London Reclaim The Streets!

The J18 network is working on ideas such as :
- a spoof trade fair
- banks for the poor outside the banks, where they can deposit misery and unemployment. Invite rubbish workers to deposit their rubbish (their capital!) in these banks, and block the streets with their carts.
- posters and flyers, designed like cheques or dollars.
