I looked for an event in my area just for the hell of it.  I thought I'd Nadin it and be the nooz media for the day.  Got the rig, water, some sweet tarts. I'll go just for pictures and laughs.

I'm so disappointed.

There are no events scheduled within 30 miles of you. Try a search in a different zip or a broader area. Or, host your own We Are The 99% event.

WTH ???  I can't believe people here don't care !!!   This historic event and no one cares ??

My $40-50 purchase should more than wipe out any OWS shortfall for the day.

There isn't one near me, so I've created one - I'm occupying my desk at work, and using the occupation to be productive and get plenty of work done...I'm listening to Rachmaninov on my M.P.3 player as I work, it struck me as preferable to a one-man drumming circle.

Can anyone get down to the occupation for a bit? Cory is down there by himself. We need folks out there ahead of the march this afternoon. Please head down there now if possible. Thanks! -Bob

11:11 am: police rioting, using barricades as weapons against press, protestors.

11:09 am: protestors tearing down NYPD barricades at south side of Liberty Square, chanting: "WHOSE PARK? OUR PARK!" -- police outnumbered, calling in reinforcements.

11:04 am: media denied access past police blockade; coverage of mass arrests censored by NYPD

It's got everything.  A dude named "Cory."  The pathetic lonliness.  The plaintive plea.  Masterpiece! 

There was nothing in my 30 mile radius, either; I had to go up to 150 miles.  Some AFL-CIO dude is spouting off about "crumbling infrastructure."  Sounds real exciting.  Think I'll have lunch instead.

From "Occupy Augusta"

Quote
Setback in our occupation status…
Posted on November 14, 2011 by One of the 99%

We had to break down our occupation due to lack of people willing to occupy overnight or even stay for awhile as relief (one of our members was there for over 100 hours straight, much of which was spent alone). We are very grateful for the funding, donations, and support we received- including from the Richmond County Sheriff’s Office- but we could not keep it going without others willing to show up.

We still have the infrastructure ready- tents, blankets, donations- but we need other people to sign up for scheduled times before we are willing to give this another shot. Please check out our Facebook page and let us know what times you are willing to come down and stay, even if only a few hours at a time.

Please reassess your convictions for supporting this movement as a whole and be reminded you needn’t travel far to participate!

We are postponing Movie Mondays for the time being but have planned a tentative Teach-In Tuesday for Tuesday, November 22 (please RSVP). We hope to resume Movie Mondays after Thanksgiving. As our permit has expired and we have the okay to meet whenever, we will no longer be meeting from M-F 5-9/Sat-Sun 3-6, but will be meeting on an as-needed basis. If you have a proposal for meeting, please post it to Facebook.

I did my Wii Fit test, which I do most days, but skipped yesterday, so I'm going to count it.

And I answered the phone even though the caller ID said "Unknown Name" and I usually ignore those, as well I should.
