Watch where youre going, stupid but the very real violence of road rage is no laughing matter. What is it about driving that makes some people just so angry . One of the biggest things is, its just stressful. The day of taking a leisurely drive have gone. Now when youre driving youre going to get to a to b. Just the trip itself is very stressful. Mike is an expert an aggression and professor of psychology. Is there something about being in the car that makes feel more comfortable. You dont see people screaming at each other in the expression story. You see people lose their minds. It afford us a certain level of safety. On the road you feel like were our only cocoon. He says, millions of us will be driving angry. Statistics suggest one in three people engage in some form of road rage. Thats a lot of road rage. That is relatively minor. Its the honking of horn loud, flipping someone off. Trying to run people off the road, trying to attack people. Do you think about the drivers when youre riding now . I do. Thats the kind of rage evan ran into in 014 when he was cycling home in washington, d. C. It was like the wall offing aer from this guy. Coming at me. Evan was riding legally when this pick up cut him off sending i am crashing. Thats when the driver became irate.

When youre in the car, someone does something, driving too slowly. One of the simplest thing, it sounds trite, take a deep death. If nothing else it buys you some time. Unless you do something.

Because i think if if any of boo have done that, anybody may charlie would still be here, made id still be walking, one thing i would i would have done. Osgood ahead. Last five years included 35 . Chron the trail through Zion National park. Osgood a summertime visit to a National Park is an american tradition moving into its second sentry. Conor knighton takes the measure of park tourism, then and now. Thousands of tired, nerve shaken, over civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home. That wilderness is a necessity. National john muir published those words in his 1901 collection. Since then a few more people have found out abut the parks. Thats how like 30 million. At the National Park service in 2015, a record breaking year. And all signs points to this year being even more popular. Are you excited for summer. Are you nervous . Well, we have nervous excite four of the past five summers have set park visitation records. Not exactly the typ type of scee john muir might have envisioned. Weve increased 35 which is nearly a million people. Zion is one of five National Parks in utah. The mighty five. Picture this. Five National Parks. In 2013 the state of utah launched campaign to promote its National Parks. And boy, did it ever work. Couple with slow gas prices, helped visitation soar. Youll of the mighty. From pennsylvania. To see these . The parks have become bucket police destinations. The the surge in vie visit takes left some scrambling to deal with crowd control. Also memorial day it not so bad they shut it down. Cars arent even allowed in the most popular. In 2000 they instituted shuttle bus. Lines can be well over an hour long. The shuttle system reached capacity . In a way it has. The Seating Capacity is 68 people often in the peak Season Running loads of a hundred people. So what happened when a National Park gets too popular. Its a question frequently key baited at an office park. You ask people, do they have a good experience, they are largely going to say yes, because they got got to see the grand canyon. But when you dig deeper you might find out. Kerri is branch chief of the Park Service Planning division. To develop Long Term Plan for managing the crowds. The National Parks is not just about cramming in as many people as people its about making sure they are everything the best possible experience. At this point everything is on the table. Even the possibility of writing permits. Certain locations that might be very effective and needed tool to ensure that people are having those great experiences and that those resource are protected. I know some portapotties. They are knew for this year. Were going to measure the times those doors open and close and each time they are pumped out well have a volume measure arrive early enough, wander far enough its still possible to escape the crowds. And if you are end up having to wait a bit, well, there are worse places to be stuck in traffic. Came out today thousands of people to run the race for retirement. So we asked them. Are you completely prepared for retirement . Okay, mostly prepared . Could you save 1 more of your income .

For a healing nights sleep. Osgood and now a page from our sunday morning almanac. May 29, 1914, 10 years ago today. The day the largely overlooked maritime calamity. For it was in the predawn hours of that day that the liner empress of ireland collided with another ship and sank on the st. Laurence river. Just hours out of quebec city enroute to liverpool, england, spotted the lights of a norwegian coal carrier, the storstad. A thick fog obscured each ship from the other hes view. Just minutes later, at roughly 2 00 not morning the storstad crashed into the em press. Immediately the empress listed allowing water to enter not only the gash but large number of open port holes as well. The empress of ireland sang in just 14 minutes. Although theres no clear verdict as to which ship was to blame theres no doubt about the toll. 1112 people lost their lives while just 46 people were saved of the 138 children on board only four survived. The the empress of ireland disaster is barely recalled here in the United States. Thats because its been over shadowed in popular memory by the sinking of the tie tan particular two years earlier and the both with larger losses of life. Still, the sinking ever the empress of ireland is tragedy worth remembering. And mourning. Still to come. Flags of war. Symbols of peace. But next the flexible, flexible, Jane Krakowski. They go ooh ooh. Hey hey they go ohoohooooh. Sitting, watching, waiting, wishing. I tell you one thing, you never knew it. At the back of the bus there is so much to give, so dream big. Yeah.

Jane has been earning rave reviews as ilona ritter, the slightly shop worn and very lovelorn Perfume Store worker in a revival of the 1963 broadway show, she loves me. Tough and sweet at the same time. Yes. Smart but she doesnt always make smart choices. Ive come to adore her. And why not. Shes got a show stopping dance. Now, me, leaping in the air and to split on to the ground and being dragged across the entire stage. At 47, Jane Krakowski seems to be at a very fine time in her life. She also featured in a hot netflix series, the unbreakable kimmie schmidt. You want a water . Its janes second project with tina fey of aer is six seasons on 30 rock. I need someone who has little going on in their life. Thank you. I just got it cut. They needed a girl that was blonde and hair color and spirit. And they needed her to be the opposite of tina. They hired me. I walked in and they said, youre it. Shes still it. Jane krakowski. She had just earned a tony tomorrow nomination. Whats that like when you hear that call come in . Its a relief. V. A. Im slight flabbergasted by it. Its such a joy. The baud way stage is just a few miles but a world away from where it all began. This is so it looks exactly the same. In new jersey, near janes hometown. Her dad was a chemical engineer her mom a teacher. By night, they much here, on stage. And instead of getting babysitters, my parents would take me to the theater when they were rehearsing for their plays. How old were you when you first appeared on stage . I think i may have been flee or four. I was a nonbilled cratchit child. I worked my way up to tiny tim. Her daughter was a born performer.

The knicks lifeguards who, for this unofficial start of summer, officially get to work.

So as you pack for the beach this weekend, dont forget your sun screen and remember the lifeguard perched on that chair. Shes there for you. Ahead. Going home. Osgood president obamas visit to hiroshima this past friday is one indication of how the legacy of the war with japan has come full circle. The growing number of war time flags returning to japan is another. Here is lee cowan. Opposing sides in war, share little, other than perhaps a battlefield and the longing to go home Glenn Stockdale of billing, man man, did come home he fought the japanese in the pacific unfill 1945. As a young Staff Sergeant he saw things most of us cant even imagine. And until the day he died at age 84 he kept most of it to himself. Never talked about the war. Just locked it all weigh way. Thats his son. What he knew of his dads service came mostly from rummaging through his fathers old foot locker. Among other things terry found a japanese flag. Carefully folded, stained with blood and covered in writing. Then he found another. And another. They were memories of the war, a trophy. Spoils of war. Collecting them was common place. Pictures abound of u. S. Servicemen posing with the fla flags. Known as yosegak,i they carried them. Good luck charms of sorts with wishes from families and frien friends. S keep capes in battle. But in his foot locker the gloss had become just ghosts of a long ago enemy and nearing the end of his fathers life, terry suggested it was time the flags go home. What did you say . I asked him, it would be nice to send them back. He said, no. Because must be i dont know what that does to individuals. Ive never been there. Thats where things and flags sat. For more than a decade. Until terry heard another world war ii vet speak of the flags. His name was lelann bud lewis. He was in the same infancy division. They never met. Bud was behind the front lines. Something that at age 895, bud still doesnt take lightly. I provided all the ammunition that killed all those folks. And im not exactly totally happy that i did that. But at the time that was my job. I couldnt question that. Why now . Why is it important to return the flag now . Well, its closure. You cant keep hating people. Inspired, Terry Stockdale packed up one of his knits flags and mailed it to the only place he thought could help. A home in a small town along the Columbia River in washington where the flags are celebrated. This is not the flag. It is the spear lit of the soldier. We are wishing that he can find way to find family in japan. Keiko and her husband run the nonprofit called the obon society. Its a festival honoring the spirits of an ancestors. Turned their attic into a war flag research center. When we started out we thought we were just helping japanese families receive heirlooms. Then as this progressed we realized we were connecting these families. Many signatures. Her own grandfather died fighting in the pacific, but his grave is empty. No bone, no remaining. Nothing came back. But one day, his flag did. We all thought that the spirit of the grandfather finally wanted to come home to see us. And it had such a profound effect they wanted to see if he they can identify more soldiers flags. Once word got out, they were stunned. The flags were veterans or their families started arriving weekly. Sometimes they include photographs of their father as a soldier or family pictures now. It is this connection of this family to this family. Brought together through war. So far they have reunited about 60 flags more than 100 are still researching. All at their own expense. I mean, you guys have spent your lives savings to do this . Its just a very important thing to do. Terry stockdale waited and hope and then came word from the obon society had traced his flag back to a man, a young soldier who kissed his wife his 7 month old son and 2yearold daughter goodbye and never saw them again. Those children, mararu now 73 and his cities tore both live outside of osaka. They knew little of their father until the phone rang. When i got the call, i thought, this was impossible. My mind just went blank. After 70 years i never dreamed something of my fathers boo surface. They found out terry not only had their fathers flag but he wanted to come to japan to deliver it himself. Anxious, they het met terry. What happened next says it all. I mean, yeah, its just beyond comprehension what it meant to them. It wasnt just a souvenir, it was their father coming home. Terry officially handed it over at a formal ceremony and then stepped back to watch two people who never knew their father unfurl his flag together. We dont know the warmth of his hands, the sound of his voice. I cant remember a thing about my father and i said, im sorry, dad, to that flag. Im so sorry. Now, where mr. Kishi prays sits a framed photo of terry a captured moment, a generation in the making. The old saying, its better to give than receive. It seals so good. For his own father, terry hopes that Staff Sergeant Glenn Stockdale is also finally at peace. Hed be proud of me. He would know its the right thing to do. I was put in a body bag, cane to the morgue. Coming up, back from the dead. Osgood memorial day has special meaning for one vietnam war veteran. Steve hartman. There are 58,315 names on the Vietnam Veterans memorial. This the story of why theres not one more. A story about a soldier what came as close to dying as any man alive. Ive never heard story like this. Its the kind of thing nightmares are made of. Or blessings. John colones blessing of a nightmare began on february 19, 1968. His Army Airborne platoon was on patrol when he and his men came under intense enemy fire. All hell broke loose. John was shot four time. I heard guys say i was dead. A loan is dead. Leave him alone. You heard people saying that . Oh, yeah. Was put in a body bag. Toe tagged taken to the morgue. He came in as a doa. Lieutenant Curtis Washington was a officer. Worked at the morgue. It was a job he took so seriously that just to make sure he never sent a live soldier home april box on his own he used to open up each body bag take a pen to the feet. So i he was testing. I did that. He went i did it again. And he went and i said, wow. That is how john colone came back from the dead. Which job says is a mixed lessing. He lost his life. He lost his life. Eight soldiers, about a third of his platoon died that day. He still wonder why me . Even today you keep asking that . Absolutesly. Why did you survive . It is a hopelessly rhetorical question. But as we walked through the cemetery where he would have been buried, john shared what may be part of the reason. Thats when i thought, lets do something. A few years ago he started sending flowers on memorial day to the graves of all the men who died in that battle. Later he expanded to everyone who died in his battalion during the whole war, more than 8o. For San Francisco 0 graves knew calling you to adopt a vanderbilt rans grave on memorial day. To clean it up and lay some flowers so that eventually every vietnam veteran can be rightfully remembered. I hope im around to witness that. Maybe that will answer that question, yes. Certainly something to live for. Osgood next. The monkees. Nice to meet you welcome, welcome today im going to show you the allnew 2016 chevy cruze and ask you what you think. But heres the catch.

Osgood how is that for a blast from the past. Pleasant valley sunday by the monkees. They first swept on to the pop music scene 50 years. The others are still very much with us and talking with Anthony Mason for the record. In the fall of 1966, four mad cap musicians made a mix of the beetle and Marx Brothers made their debut. For the next 58 episodes the monkees would turn pop culture upside down. The idol of millions. A small minority . Half a century later does the big 50 mean anything to you guys . Mike nestmith, micky dolenz and peter tork are still monke monkeying around. The monkees would out sell the beatles and the stones in 1967. Their first four albums went to number one. A made nor tv band, they were assembled by the shows producers who put this ad in variety seeking four insane boys. Mike nesmith was playing at the troubadour when a friend you should try out for it. So i did. I got the job. He went to the audition in the same knit cap hed wear for the show. I didnt go to the cattle call, id already had series, you see. You want to be musician. He had a lead in a show called circus boy. Peter tork, a folk singer, heard about the audition is from his friend, steven stills who had been passed over. He had so settle for scrays bee stills nash and young. Hes never forgiven me. Davy jones a british actor who already had broadway experience completed the cast. Did the four of you connect pretty quickly. Instantly. It was scary. There were no duds among us. Except me. But i wasnt really a dud. I played one on television. Record in stereo. He said, hired any guys. You hired us four. Any four guys could do what you are doing. We brought the force of our character to it. The boys would butt heads with the snows music producer who duesed outside session musicianss to make the hank keys first records. I thought they wanted me to play for them. No . I was mistaken. And how did you feel about that. I was mortified. They were doing clarksville and and i wrote a counterpoint. I had studied music. I said, no, peter, you dont understand. This is the record. Its all done. We dont need you. Is it true that dvyy jones dum dumped cocacola on his head . Did you that . It was me. You enjoyed it too much . I lost it. I it maust made him, like, no, theyre laughing at me. We are. Those silly monkees. The fictional band became such a phenomenon fans wanted to see them live. It was like, well, now what . The producers finally allowed them to play. And their third album, headquarters, was entirely their own. But critics had already branded the monkees the freefab four. It was a, you guys arent real. Its like, so define your terms. You were a fake band that became a real band that wasnt really real . Now youre november. I dont know the answer to that question. Mick doesnt know. You felt like a band . Well, you know, its no. Yes. Maybe. Ive often said its like Leonard Nimoy really becoming a vulcan. The series ended after just two seasons. And the monkees eventually went their separate ways. I always feel blessed to be part of this. Dolenz became a tv producer and director in england. So did tork, who settled in connecticut. But reruns have kept reintroducing the monkeys to new audiences. To mark their 50th anniversar anniversary, dolenz and tork have headed out on tour gibb. And the monkees have new album. Produced by fountains of wayne front man adam, a long time fan. He reached out to other indie rock stars who loved the band. Ben gibbard of death cab for cutie they have all written songs. A pretty impressive list. Its a great list. Isnt it. And again, me, lucky. They also unearthed an unreleased vintage monkees track that features the late davy jones who died of a heart attack in 2012. Davy was something. His loss was completely onyx peck to you guys . Uhhuh. The youngest of us to go first. When you first had to go out there without davy how did that feel . Micky said, how am i going to sing day dream believer and i said, well, you cant. It doesnt belong to us any mo more. It belongs to them. You think this could be your last tour . No. Were going to tour again next year . You are . Absolutely. Well tour until one of us drops. Then the other will go on as the monkee. [ laughter ] hey, hey, its the monkee and people say, i monkee around. Hey, hey, its the monkee and people say, i monkee around. E ned suspension.

But i wont play anything less than my best. So if theres Something Better than warfarin, im going for it. Eliquis.

Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. I accept i dont play quite like i used to. But im still bringing my best. And going for eliquis. Reduced risk of stroke plus less major bleeding. Ask your doctor if switching to eliquis is right for you. Osgood Senate Republican leader Mitch Mcconnell has his critics on both sides of the aisle. He tries to make himself herd over the partisan din. Mitch mcconnell. Told president obama. Thest obstructionist, bill blocking a waste. To many condition ken senator mitch mccontinental is the face of obstruction. Well common cause used to call me darth individualer. Does that bother you . Let me tell you why. You accept the fact that you cant make every happy. He made clear his intention to block the president s agenda in 2010 when he told auto reporter the single most important thing we want to achieve is for president obama to be oneterm president. But there was a second part. Which was, that in the meantime we needed to see what we could do together and make some progress for the country. Which was snipped off. By my political opponents. People call me obstructionist overlook some inconvenient facts. Just ask his conservative tea party opponents. They think im an obama m enabler. The Senate Majority leader responds to his critics hen his first book. Ive been around awhile. And second, it took me a long time to get where i hoped to get. Most of us success is road. That has taken him a long way. His mother drove warm to warm springs, georgia. After two years the nurses told mcconnells mother her son would walk without a brace. He would have ha normal life. Then, at 13, mcconnell moved to louisville. Does it feel the same . It looks very similar. It was very intimidating. He was underdog for Student Council president , trying to out maneuver his opponents. I would slide the pamphlets through here. I said, join us, vote for Mitch Mcconnell for president. And it would list the Football Players and the basketball players and the cheerleaders and the homecoming queens. How did you get the most popular kids to endorse he won, mcconnell, a pack rat. Saved his mementos from that race and every other throughout listener ly 40 years in elected office. Switch to mitch for president. Much of it on display at his alma mater. Which houses his pears.

Contrasts with his mcconnells wonkier, side, an immigrant from china, she came to United States when she was eight years old. She spoke about her immigrant experience apt the 2000 republican convention. But when asked about this years Presumptive Republican nominee she avoids the question. Its not about me. When you sit down with mccontinental hes hardly more forthcoming on the subject of donald trump. Do you think donald trump can win . I do. Are you going to support him . I am. Does it cause you pause to think about how divided this country s. How he is causing some division . Republicans in your father are saying, never trump . Im call about is that this is no where near the most divisive period. But what protects us in this country against big mistakes being made is the structure. The constitution. The institutions, no matter how unusual a personality may be who gets elected to office there are constraints in this country, you dont get to do anything. You want to. So im very optimistic. Im not depressed about the nature of the debate. Since becoming majority leader in 2015, mcconnell struck deals with the administration on major transportation, education and cybersecurity bills. Owe has warm words for joe biden, but says the president can be a challenge. I had meyer his intellect. It is a little bit grading. Grading . To kind of be lectured to. Ive heard this complaint from democrats as well. This is not a partisan observation. I pretty much know what he thinks, he ought to know what i think im interested in how he figured the way forward rather than listening to extension. One area where m mccontinental will not budge. Merit garlands nomination. No waivering on that . None. He will be on the Supreme Court if Hillary Clinton wins. If hes on the Supreme Court hell nominated by the next president. Regardless of what happens in november, the 74yearold mccontinental made it clear. Hes playing the long game. Americas a land of second opportunities. Everybody has barriers to overcome, some more than others. Ian to act like im all that unique. America is full of stories like mine. This is a special country with enormous opportunity for those who dont twit. Legalzoom has your back.

Osgood so whats worth see can as the summertime movie season begins. Turns out to be a tough question for our david old steen. Memorial day weekend is a great time to see movies. But, wow, theres not a lot out there. My local multiplex has alice through the Looking Glass on three screens. And its a big nothing burger. On the other four screens, xmen apocalypse. I actually loved that one. Its moving, its scary, it captures both the pain of being an outsider, a mutant. And the ruinous temptations of super power. But, you do need to have seen all five, six . Nine . Other xmen movies. And theres a nasty little futuristic satire called the lobster with Colin Farrell as a guy who needs to couple up in a few days or hell get turned into an animal. Have you thought about what animal . Youll either love this or send me fourletter tweets. But there is another choice. The punch line is true. In theaters and on demand the terrific, behind the scenes documentary weiner which charts the 2013 mayoral rub of former new york kong grease man on than knee weiner. Whats an apt metaphor for the movie . Car crash . Too modest. More like, the titanic. You see that iceberg coming and you know its horrible. But you got to watch. Youll recall in 2011 weiner got caught texting pictures to women of the very part of his not me from which he spent his lifetime to skills associate himself. He and his level posed for New York Times magazine cover and phase two, the come back was on. The directors had incredible access. And the weird thing is, at first, despite relen relentless ridicule he looked to be covering a weiner. A mean, winner. Maybe hed now be new yorks mayor except would like to talk about its amazing weiner didnt pull the plug on the documentary when the second scandal broke when a porn actress released photos and texts he sent after leaving congress when he was, wok on his marriage. But the film crew stays and the campaign perseveres. Multiple people . Then to say i found weiner less hateful than pitiful. Hes not a confident liar. He knows well see through him. Are you suffering from an addition . To me, it speaks to the nature of modern dock u commentaries and reality shows. Oscar wilde once defined scandal as gossip made tedious by morality. If you have behind the scenes access to the people, its anything but tedious, its riveting. This is the worse. Which makes you feel, even if like me, you think its an amazing move spree. Really creepy. Osgood heres a look at the week ahead on our sunday morning calendar.
