Has anyone visited an Occupy site for an S24O? I've been thinking of doing it.

That's a cool idea! Maybe not in Oakland, though. Rubber bullets suck..

Occupy El Cerrito, though, is substantially less...um....edgy and authentic?  Also known as: Lonely?

I was thinking about Occupy San Jose, because that's the closest for me.

What's the appropriate Rivendell to ride to an Occupy S240?

The Boldog. It's a tricycle built around a Mukluk but with studded tires and Charleton Heston spinning hub knives.

Patrick "just kidding" Moore, who has no love for Wall Street, at all, at all.

Most Riv owners probably fall in the 1%. But there is supposedly lots of free food, sex (some apparently non-consenusal) and drugs, at the Occupy festivities (courtesy of ACORN) so maybe they won't notice an upscale bike. If they do, expect it to be "redistributed."

Wow. Free food and drugs? How would ACORN be able to afford that,
considering that ACORN disbanded a year and a half ago and no longer
exists?

This thread is getting way out of bounds. I suggest ceasing and
desisting or taking it to a different forum.

hahah. The 1% mark is > $350K/year.

I can only speak for me but I own 2 rivs and I'm not even in the
BALLPARK of 350K/yr.

I don't own a car and I don't have any kids - so my expenses are quite
low in comparison to a number of people my age.

so I guess you could say I have 'bike priorities'.

lol i bought my first rivvy when i made 15k a year and was an underemployed out of college grad. i sold my car, and put most of the money into the bank. saw someone on a hunqapillar down in oakland when the cops started shooting people in the face with teargas canisters, two weeks ago. never saw an acorn, and don't know how that's relevant to this list unless we're talking about beautiful oak trees up on fine grassy ridges.

the politics of stealth camping on open public space is concurrent in my mind, whether you're on shell ridge or oscar grant plaza.

s24o, the original occupy movement.

According to the WSJ, the Adjusted Gross Income required to be in
America's top 1% (in 2008) was $380,354. If this is representative of
most Rivendell owners, I need to find another group because I'm
certainly not in the top 1%!

A big jump in income and net worth comes in the top .5% and again at .
1%, where the money made isn't from 'work,' but from the working of
money. I think the conflation of the 1% with the .1% makes it easy to
argue at cross purposes.

In my list of favorite hippie-school graduates, Philip Williamson is in the top 1%

Jim M. said "cease, desist" several days ago. I suggest we do...Anne's thread about doing an S24O lost its way a long time ago.
