THIS PARK NEEDS A CLEAN OUTFWAH TH' CLEAN UP! - Wednesday 111116

The road (mentally) became very foggy last night late.

 

So this’nll be very short. Sometimes the keys on the computer get stuck or must take us in a wrong direction.  But anyway we pass along the news in case you were hiding out on Tuesday… Zuccotti Park (actually not all that near Wall St.) was cleared out on the much delayed order of Mayor Blumberg.

 

Most who commented thought it was far too late to be effective. But amazingly the people who demonstrated – apparently disturbed by the fog – don’t know what it is/was they are demonstrating for or against…. And say they will be back. I’m thinking if they do there will be some more scratches and bumps.  The borrowed police in riot gear according to the numbers published in the NYC papers figure the extra costs will be between $50,000 and $80,000 just for the extra overtime.

 

Then there will be all the clean up (which has been accomplished according to reports) and if the demonstrators are true to their word they may be back – or at least that was the intent.

 

The polling numbers are interesting.  Ages of the O group compared with the tea party are surprising.  A lot of things are inexplicable. So we’ll have to see if there are answers or just questions.

 

Meantime – have a good rest… I plan to be with you tomorrow.

 

Cordially IN HIM,

 

Jack
