Soggy Start

I'm on my way back to Manhattan for the May Day General Strike. Yesterday I bought another children's set of noisy musical instruments - a drum, tamborine and kazoo - so I can join the 1,000 Guitarmy in Bryant Park.  I had such fun last November in the band, making a racket outside Bloomberg's house.  If you can't strike but would like to keep track of things, Media for the 99% has links.  Following is a Kat Edmonson song from 2008 that seems appropriately tinged with irony, in hindsight - followed by two other of her numbers...only because I happen to like their whimsy.  Tell your friends - don't shop today!  Rattle the cage and let the 1% know we're here - and we are NOT pleased.

  3. Gail, your brave actions in NYC inspired us to take to the streets of Boston to join several hundred others in a Capitalism Funeral March. This was after a lecture at MIT dealing with the dire impacts of climate change. The speaker said, in private remarks, that we're at least an order of magnitude beyond a sustainable number of people on Earth.
