Nancy couldn’t make it. She’s vacationing in Hawaii with all of the other 1%ers.

Ah, cool. Leave it to OWS — plastic bags and trash in the streets. I appreciated that KTLA did NOT show it on their parade coverage.

***Occupiers Crash Rose Parade With Giant Octopus Float****

Using an octopus is nothing new. I have seen several pictures from the 1800s in which either bankers or Railroads are depicted as a large octopus grabbing up everything around them.

There was a novel written about that time, THE OCTOPUS, about how a greedy railroad company getting robbed by an outlaw. The Octopus wins, but the Chairman of the board dies a horrible death.

It reminds me of a Frank Zappa song. Something about a giant inverted ice cream cone with mean eyes and a 2X4 sticking out from under neath it. All that is missing is the distressed woman screaming and the guy with the skinny tie and a revolver shooting at it.

Watching them spin their “float” in front of the Norton Simon Museum, was just too funny.
