A King may move a man, a father may claim a son, but remember that even when those who move you be Kings, or men of power, your soul is in your keeping alone. When you stand before God, you cannot say, "But I was told by others to do thus." Or that, "Virtue was not convenient at the time." This will not suffice. Remember that.

"Occupy Nothing's" death throes from Seattle...
I
was late coming home tonight because I stopped by in downtown Seattle, Washington
to witness 20 or so "Occupy Nothing" protesters- community college students, street kids, wanna-be
hippies & homeless types- block the main street intersection tonight about 7:00 pm PST near the
Westlake Mall by standing/sitting in the middle of the street and generally being disruptive to the evening shoppers... The
police used bicycles to form a wall and force them down the road, gave two loud warnings to disperse and
then 2 cops pepper-sprayed the crowd for about 15 seconds... total
protest time about an hour and after they got sprayed it was over and
they went away... In the end they accomplished nothing... all a bit silly if you
ask me.
