OCCUPYNOLA (NEW ORLEANS)


From Occupy NOLA on Facebook:
Today marks OccupyNOLA 14th day, of peaceful, Nonviolent occupation of Avery Alexander Park aka Duncan Plaza. OccupyNOLA has had no arrest or confrontation with the city of New Orleans during this time. We continue to increase our numbers daily and garner support from our community. You are not alone, We are the 99% and the people are too big to fail.
Obviously it's possible for protestors and police to get along. I hope and pray the good relations spread to all areas which are being peacefully occupied.

  1. Wouldn't "O NO" be the obvious acronym?

  2. Perhaps, perhaps not. There's the real life Ono.

  3. Still, after all these years, continue to think of her as "Okay Yoni" (a Sanscrit noun discreetly used in Burton's translation of the Karma Sutra). The name was given to her in the 60's by the British satirical magazine Private Eye.

  4. Lapin, you so often tell me more than I want to know.

  5. Not the first time I've referred to Newsweek's 2007 Why Grandpa Says Inappropriate Things, I'm sure. Private Eye's opinion of Ms O was widely held in the late 60's. Still is by some.
