OWS Roundup
Just in case you were not up to speed on the latest on the so called “Occupy” movement, here is a roundup.
2 deaths at Occupy protests in California and Vermont. One looks like murder and the other is being considered a suicide.
Tuberculosis Breaks Out At “Occupy” Atlanta
In New York City, the illegal trespassers who don’t know just what they are “protesting” against, are coming down with “Zuccotti lung.” in rising numbers.
Wait! It gets better!
With little sleep in cold conditions, cigarettes and drinks being passed from mouth to mouth, and few opportunities to wash hands, Zuccotti Park may now just be the best place to catch respiratory viruses, norovirus (also known as the winter vomiting virus) and tuberculosis, according to one doctor.
The damp clothing and cardboard signs wet with rain are also breeding grounds for mold. Some protesters are urinating in bottles and leaving food trash discarded throughout the campground, providing further opportunities for nastiness.
“Pretty much everything here is a good way to get sick,” Salvatore Cipolla, 23, from Long Island, told the Times. “It’ll definitely thin the herd.”
Some protesters have refused free flu shots, citing a “government conspiracy,” the Times said.
“One Percenter” J-Zay selling “occupy” themed t-shirts and is keeping all the profits. Yes, he is playing those idiots for suckers while claiming to “support” them. Lenin had it right. They are “useful idiots.”
Muir nails it.

“I just racked it, and they ran.”
Oakland property owner responds correctly to OWS rioters
Political Quote of the Day
“So we don’t know specifically what Herman Cain stands accused of doing wrong, who’s accusing him, or how to verify any of it. Other than that, this is some solid reporting from Politico.”
Bonus Quote:
“Liberals are terrified of Herman Cain. He is a strong conservative black man. Look at the way they go after Allen West and Michael Steele and they aren’t even running against Obama. They are terrified of strong, conservative, black men.”
Friday B-Movie Pick: Halloween Edition
Yup, it’s almost Halloween, so we’re going with the classics:
An American Werewolf in London
Monday Book Pick – 101 Uses for My Ex-wife’s wedding dress
101 Uses for My Ex-Wife’s Wedding Dress by Kevin Cotter
Ok, this book isn’t available until tomorrow, but it is just so mind blowingly awesome that it has to be today’s book pick. The author’s wife left him after 12 years and said to keep the wedding dress, he could do whatever he wanted with it. Word of advice darling, don’t give a man a challenge like that.
For your Halloween sugar fix…
Hard to find in stores, but Amazon comes to the rescue, Count Chocula, Frankenberry and Booberry cereal.
Oh, and you can get your plush on in all three as well.
Friday B-Movie Pick: Near Dark & Dog Soldiers
It’s almost Holloween, so today we have a double header of Vampires and Werewolves. The first is a low buget classic from 1987. A group of vampires roaming Oklahoma those recent yet far away days before ubiquitous cell phones, multiple 24/7 news channels and new media news back channels. There is plenty of blood and mayhem to go around in this dark and violent vampire flick that never uses the word “vampire.” Dog Soldiers was made fifteen years later, but has a lot of the same noir grittiness. A small group of British soldiers are dropped into the remote countryside for some “routine” training. Add a group of werewolves that “just happen to be in the area”, and you have a nice flick to get you in the mood for Holloween.
Question of the Day
Why is profiling illegal when looking for terrorists, but is considered good policy in college admissions?
