The Curtis Brick fountain still doesn’t work. I went by there today on my way to a delightful brunch. Guess it wasn’t important during campaigning season. But, at least, it makes a great climbing toy for children! (sarcasm)
Whoever wins park’s board tonight is going to get a very firm request very soon…

I had to jump this cop today, his flower was too provoking!
So, I interjected in his #SacredCircle with his fellow Law & Fire enforcement officers. Think of the scene from The Commode Story in Quentin Tarantino’s Reservoir Dogs.
Can I take your picture? The flower is the message I’ve been looking for- a member of the 99%! The other’s backed-off, quickly.
He smiled, and turned to strike a pose…

I’m leaving Occupy Vancouver on my way to catch a bus home. Suddenly I’m accosted by cute suburban girls promoting a ‘talent competition’ for the next McCain’s pizza ad!
This event was fraud qubed. First, when you get inside, it was more focused on pizza marketing than talent. All the staff were as joyous as a pep rally at Disney World! They were so darned happy to be there, and so astoundingly enthusiastic about how wonderful it was to promote McCain’s pizza!
Fraud count: 2
Then, while waiting for their fantabulous pizza, I noticed fraud #3. They were using a professional pizza oven to cook the frozen pizza! No wonder their pizza was so darn tootin’ good!
So, I called out the large man who was running the show. I told him I plan to share this fraud with you, my fair audience. He responded saying “you don’t need a pizza oven to make it!” My response – “sure does taste better that way! “
If you could see the look on his face when I told him I got pictures….
Corporatism sucks!

Dear Occupy Vancouver,
Below is a list of my personal demands. I expect that each and every one of you adhere to these principles, or you will not be welcome on my side of the sandbox:
1.) Violence, including property destruction, will not be a part of the OV movement, or any OV involved movement. Ever! But, strategic use of system jamming is welcome!
2.) We will not wear ninja outfits, balaclavas or masks on the front of our faces-unless in specific situations where it absolutely necessary. Because, in Canada, masks have a history of enabling the government to embarrass our movements.
3.) That we agree any/all provocative acts should have maximal impact on ‘the system’ and minimal impact on ‘the people’.
With that, the 99% will see we are not a threat, and will grow to love us! I promise!
Respectfully,
Greg Renouf

David Eby: Got a cream pie in his face
Shortly after the Olympics, Vancouver was entertained with a type of event I’ll label ‘Ninja theater’. Two participants of Occupy Vancouver were victims of a vicious cream pie attack by Black Bloc apologists…
The attack was intended for David Eby, the head of the BC Civil Liberties Association. He was accompanied by Chris Shaw, UBC Professor, author of anti-Olympic book Five Ring Circus
Eby & Shaw share at least four commonalities- both were involved in anti-Olympic protests, both are involved in Occupy Vancouver, both have spoke out against the Heart Attack incident, and both have had to brush cream pie off of themselves after a (supposed) Black Bloc retaliation.
I wonder what they have to say about our ninjas? Chris Shaw was the first to speak-out last weekend when I asked a panel of candidates if we should use riot squads to shutdown OV. His answer was quick, and the same as the other candidates- A Resounding No!
Guys, can you throw in a word or two about your opinion on the appearance of Black Bloc at OV a couple weeks ago? Why were they there, and how do we make sure they are gone?
That’s how my eyes go too!
