Clem Occupies

Clem and I went down to see the Occupy Boston encampment in downtown Boston today.  His sign was a big hit and we walked along the street with a few others for a while.  Several women asked in a concerned manner what is Clement's favorite flavor of milkshake, while others totally got the reference. We would have joined the march at 11:00 but Clement was sidetracked by a large group of "mailboxes," actually newspaper  boxes, so we gave up marching in favor of opening and closing boxes for a while.  The encampment was smaller than I thought it would be, but looked well stocked and had a number of informational handouts and speakers while we were there.  Clem got a big thumbs up from some duck boats!  Then home for a nap.

Clem had a fantastic Halloween - this year he rang the doorbell, said "Trick or Treat!," took candy, and thanked everyone.  Last year he tried giving all the candy back, and this year he forgot all about the candy once it was in his bucket, so John and I have been eating it.  Score!
