I like this ~1.6%

So if your read about Occupy Omaha on this blog, then you know it went down.

According to KPTM, about 1.6% of the people who ‘like’ Occupy Omaha (on facebook) decided to show up to occupy Omaha.

This isn’t about Occupy Omaha, this is about people & their ‘activism‘ on facebook.  If 10% of your ‘fans’ aren’t willing to show up for an event, that is the culmination of your work.  Then that medium isn’t really the place to start or maintain an active group of protestors.

You need to be calling your friends & family.  asking them to support whatever cause you are really for.

P.S. You have a meeting before the public protest, NOT after.

 

Sitting on a seat

Good Afternoon & Happy Sunday.

I’m sitting on a seat at the La Vista Conference Center.  The Community Safety & Wellness Fair.  It runs from 11.00 to 16.00.  Get out here & explored the safetyness of the community.  In theory I’ll have some pictures posted.

Today is Sunday 10/09/V3.2.

It is going to be a harder Sunday than last Sunday.  But Monday will be easier so its a fair tradeoff.

The word of the day is milquetoast which means A very timid, unassertive, spineless person, especially one who is easily dominated or intimidated.

Hope your Sunday is going well.

 

Quotes from the World for Sunday 10/09/MMXI

…there is a difference between being convinced and being stubborn. I’m not certain what the difference is, but I do know that if you butt your head against a stone wall long enough, at some point you realize the wall is stone and that your head is flesh and blood.

Maya Angelou
Maya Angelou (b. 1928), U.S. author and performer. As quoted in Reel Women, part 4, by Ally Acker (1991).

Said in 1979, on giving up her attempt to be named director of the television version of the first volume of her autobiography, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings.
