More Occupy Boston Irony

They’re getting ready for the Cold

The first guy has it right, good sleeping bag, good clothes, and a propane heater can make camping very comfortable. I know people who camp in the dead of winter and their hardest task is finding a spot to make a fire and pitch a tent where the snow won’t melt away from under them.

That being said where’s this equipment going to come from. North Face? EMS? LL Bean? REI? BTW who makes those tents they have? This smacks of the irony of people flying Chinese-made American Flags on 9-11.

I wish somebody had been smart enough to get professional film crews in here, because this appears to have all the makings of those “Let’s put a bunch of city idiots outside in the woods and watch them hurt themselves” reality programming.

Oh I found that video looking for this story.

The “Greenway Mobile Food Fest” set for Saturday has been canceled and won’t be held until the spring, the conservancy announced today.

“Saturday’s event was to include 12 mobile food vendors, many of them in large trucks. It was to take place on Dewey Square, the only parcel large enough to accommodate this type of gathering,” the conservancy said today in a release.

I’m not familiar with this food festival, but if you look at my waistline you might figure out that I think food festivals are awesome and have attended a few.

You know who you see at food festivals? Red Lobster? Olive Garden? McDonalds? Pizza Hut? KFC?

No, you see the small local restaurants, and the owner-operated chains getting out to show off their food. You know, like the EXACT opposite of big corporations!

I still think these guys as a movement are Marxists…but they’re starting to do work that looks like Anarchists. Thankfully they aren’t doing any harm that won’t clean up…well except for the harm to the Democrats that seem so enamored with them.

Keep it up you stinky hippies!
