The money part though. It’s like some big organization that is shutting down a city affecting the ability of the 99% to move around the city freely and enjoy the park and the trails, while rich blowhards who spent money on coaches, on athletic gear, hotels and air fare run around the city littering it with their Gu and gels and cups, etc.

As opposed to the money spent on cell phones, laptops, miscellaneous electronics, wireless plans, stylish clothes, multiple daily take-out meals, etc.

I’ve seen the poverty of the OWS crowd, and it makes my ganifully-employed existence look like foolish peasantry.

Hear that from Rush?
Why would Alex, Getty and Neil care about a marathon

Just summarizing what I’ve heard. Don’t shoot the messenger.

heard from where ?

I kinda hope someone does. I’m not feeling like I’m in peak shape and I’d love to make the front cover taking one out under the headline: “Occupy This!” Would make a great excuse for being 2-3 minutes slower than I hoped.

Twitter. Check out this post

Its official title is the ING NYC Marathon, making it a subsidiary of one of the world’s largest banks. Time to #OccupyTheMarathon? #ows

hardly a threat I think, four Twitter posts…

I like this suggestion,
"Tape over “ING” on your bib & replace with " #OWS “”

This thread belongs over in the lavender room now.

I heard that the pace car has been replaced by a parade of snow plow trucks that are instructed to mow down anyone dumb enough to hop the barricade.

I’d gladly drive the lead truck

I hear that Islamic jihadists are trying to destroy America. There have been twitters, youtube videos, facebook, internet chat forums, and web pages about it. Will there be enough police out there to head off this threat?

I don’t know why don’t you start a thread about it?

They hate us for our freedoms, you know.
