Occupy Wall Street protest

[MdR Dave]

So did I in my early days! Lightfoot had one of the finest voices ever in his prime. There are also plenty of great Canadian singer-songwriters who don't cross the border, Dave. Try Sarah Harmer and David Francey.

I'll check them out- thanks!

I found that map funny Bella... and I know you didn't mean the stereotypes....

and good to see the Canadians being given their musical dues by all the earlier posts. it revisits the postings I made on another strand in praise of canadian musicos. I had forgotten ronnie hawks and the hawks of course.

So did I, I know she was jest funnin'.

But it's nice to put the record straight....

BTW, am I right in thinking that your current avatar isn't in fact a skinhead but one of the artists in turn of the century Vienna? I'll be so disappointed if he turns out to be a BNP supporter from Barking.....

a few others - diana krall and Michael Buble and the wonderful Madeleine Peyroux

You mean Ronnie Hawkins and the Hawks, aka The Band. This is how to play rock'n'roll, kids.

And here they are:

True true but i'd rather hide my stupidity rather than show it out in the open but that's just me.

I'm pretty sure I am!

I did read Bella's article and found this comment on there by a reader to be pretty amusing:

You are 100% correct. Wow a normal Citizen, a miracle!

Concerning Corporate Terrorism:
Any competent person sees the real numbers. The U.S. of America and the global economy is in a depression. If you work for the media or the government you can bear false witness and deny the mathematical facts.
The U.S. is going into depression that mean everyone loses.
The word is ‘Corporate Terrorism’.
The citizens of the U.S. have no representation.
Corporate lawyers are dictators, dictating U.S. Government Policies, dictating The Common Wealth of U.S. Citizens.
Corporate Lobbyists define ‘Protectionism’ and ‘The Sherman Antitrust’
‘Protectionism’ refers to policies or doctrines which protect businesses and workers within the U.S. Protectionism keeps the money in circulation within the U.S. (Circular Flow). Protectionism is the practice of shielding a country's domestic industries from foreign harm. Tariffs protect the human rights of U.S. citizens. For example Chinese women are forced to have abortions. Insects are more humane than Chinese Government Officials.
Today the money flow one way: out of the U.S. - to Slave Labor - to the Tyranny of Communist China and Oppressed India.
‘The Sherman Antitrust Act’ was instated after the 1929 Great Depression.
History repeats itself now with Globalization; one monopoly; one outsourced supplier; every U.S. Citizens labor and profession in imminent danger. International corporate lobbyists are Chinese Terrorists.
The U.S has no manufacturing and no employment.
The U.S. has no Internal Revenue.
What will happen when the U.S. government sends a Reduction in Force Notice to the U.S. military commanders? The answer is: they will nuke China so they don’t have to pay them back, justification of the Military P. P. Curve.
We the people shall try Corporate Terrorists (Executives) and charge them with crimes against humanity. Corporate Terrorism is supporting: communism, monopolistic practices, unfair trade, malice, inciting riots, police officers deaths and global instability (World War).
