Squatter has a negative connotation and yes some squatters appropriate what is not theirs the reality is you can only own something while you are alive and then what you owned is owned by someone else…old ditty “Hare today Goon tomorrow.” / A lot of folks are losing possessions and things which do make life livable or bearable. Some are losing homes and an old American tradition is squatter rights but not unique to America it has existed from the dawn of time like “might makes right” and only “the strong survive” or the cunning move effortlessly or those that use arcane legal loopholes to turn around the turnaround of misfortune sometimes succeed. / Civil Disobedience brought down one of the most powerful nations in the history of mankind the key was “civil” or the civility to disobey without armed confrontation which boggled the minds of the super power so used to succeeding with their might makes right…a ragged skinny little man Gandhi was the spokesperson but he did not do it alone…the reality is ”when an ideas time has arrived” nothing in heaven or on earth can stop it…like “Yes we Can” or “I have a dream” it doesn’t always happen on schedule, sometimes it gets delayed and time is what everyone is really up against. / Squatters do have rights and nine tenths possession is the law still rules if you know how it works…best to get legal consul and speak to those who just might help you, like your Representative or Senator and even the mortgage holder and surprise even the banks. Like civil disobedience maybe the time has come to be civil and disobey and act today with purpose and use the law which is usually used against you if you’re ignorant of the law and the law is blind unless you see what it sees.
Old Buildings are fun to explore you never know what you are going to see.

Abstraction of the globe and money
A civilized sophisticated Chimpanzee commenting on the greediness of the Corporate “Fat Cats” who caused the economic downfall of the nation.
A Parody of another financial institute here in the UK that has fallen victim to the global credit crunch. This particular Building Society is in a pickle but they’re at odds with the UK Government over their refusal to bail them out which they say would have cost £60 million but instead the UK Goverment has forced them to sell up & its costing the UK tax payer £1.6 billion instead. / Now that’s logic for you!!!
Its in the news & its getting a lot of attention but will the gravy train ever end. Will the people behind the false claims also offer their resignations like the sacrificial lamb; namely Michael Martin the Speaker of the house. The very people who forced Michael Martin out of his job when they themselves have had there fingers in the very same pie. / If they do will there be anyone left to run the country, probably not. / If we, the common people made similar expense claims we would be arrested. We ceratinly wouldn’t simply be allowed to pay back the money & continue as if nothing ever happened. / No we would more than likely end up behind bars. Then there’s all the Euro MP’s & all the expense claims they make. / Buying this T-shirt & wearing it in public sends a message to all the politicians in the UK & Europe. / You better clean up your act because we the people are watching you all very closely. / If your a politician & you buy this T-shirt send me an email; I can send you a receipt for £60 which you can then claim back as parlimentary expenses, its ok its been cleared by the commons committee / Best viewed large, pay attention to the ‘T’
Old buildings just get better with age and become art…well sometimes
Surprising how a pretty sound international bank was loosing a quarter of its value in one day and needed financial help from the Dutch government to continue reliable operation… And for many years they were the main sponsor for marathons, included the marathon in Amsterdam, probably for the the last time! Up to you to fill in the other possibilities like fishing, failing, sleeping, disappointing, falling, fucking, stealing, counting, paying etc.
I happened upon this suburban street and couldn’t resist recording the scene.

Homeless man and his few possessions make “home” against the exterior of a Manhattan bank. To me, it spells the 2008-09 mortgage crisis in a nutshell.
