<blockquote><p>I first spotted you at Zuccotti Park/Liberty Square right before the   march started. You're a few years younger than me with short, dark hair   and you were wearing all black with leggings and a red handkerchief   around your neck. I thought you crushingly attractive but things got   moving and I lost track of you before I was able to work up the nerve to   say hello. I saw you again a couple hours later when we got arrested  on  the Brooklyn Bridge, and then we ended up in neighboring cells at  the  90th precinct house in Williamsburg. I'm the tall guy with glasses  and  short, dark hair wearing jeans and a tan t-shirt. I had a gray  hoodie  with black stripes on the bridge. You made fun of my shoes'  tongues  falling out because they'd confiscated our shoelaces!  Unfortunately you  were released in the first group and I in the last,  so I couldn't find  you by the time I got out. Curses!</p>
<p>I'll be looking for you hard the next time I'm down there, and I  won't  let the opportunity pass a second time. But in case I don't see  you,  know that I'd love to buy you a coffee or tea or what-have-you  (it's  cold in that park!) and hear what draws you to the demonstration.  Say  hello!</p>

<p>Hey, I'm one of the people in Occupy Wall Street. I've been looking at  big girls a lot, but I haven't had the pleasure of being able to have  sex with one, given the location I'm sleeping in. This is where the  hosting comes in. I need a shower, maybe you need a lay or a cuddle  buddy...I'd be happy to oblige, if you would like. I'm 6' tall, with  brown skin, a bald head, and honey eyes. I usually wear a trench coat  and fedora, and have been keeping clean enough (in all ways...I don't  smell, and I have no diseases.). However, washing up in a public  restroom gets annoying.  Age, color, orientation, etc. are no object to  me, as long as you're STD free and okay with having someone come over,  shower, and possibly have fun with.

<p>Are you a musician or a social worker? I am both...so between the two, we might have something to talk about.</p>
<p>I would like to participate in the historic "Occupy Wall Street" protest  that's been brewing.  At 4:30PM today, thousands of people from the  American Dream Movement will march in solidarity with the Occupy Wall  Street protesters from Foley Square to Wall Street.  It starts at Duane  St and Centre St, outside 26 Federal Plaza and the march ends at  Zuccotti Park in Liberty Plaza.</p>
<p>Do you want to meet up with me and do this?</p>
<p>About me: I recently got my MSW after several, diverse careers  (concurrent all along with being a professional  pianist/vocalist/composer). I have a hilarious sense of humor, except  when I'm not funny. I'm a good listener (well, I guess I'd better be)  and I just want something to do and someone to do it with.</p>
<p>I truly do not hope for romance/sex, so you don't have to be hetero...or even female.</p>
<p>I have never been married and have no kids but it's okay with me if you have and do.</p></blockquote>

<p>So yeah, I need a shower so I don't smell bad anymore. It's not  overwhelming, but it's at the point where I'm bothered by it. I assume  it's slightly noticeable at this point, but I try to stay clean. If  anything develops afterwards, so be it. However, I would really  appreciate just a shower. 22, 6' tall, stocky, brown skin, attractive  facial features (people say I have really nice teeth and eyes a lot),  and fairly easy to get along with. Email me?</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>7. This guy is looking for a girl with tattoos and blonde hair who has been to Central Booking. That doesn't really narrow it down, does it?</strong></p>

<p>I saw you when we were marching from the park to NYPD headquarters and  once we got to the plaza, I was about 2 people behind you.  You are an  amazingly striking blond with extremely stylish large silver hoop  earrings and a very nice outfit.  You also have peacock feathers  tattooed on your right shoulder blade.  I was incredibly taken by you  but am also rather tongue-tied around strangers.  I think you even took  my photo- I was carry a book (and dressed head to toe in black with  sunglasses) but I still couldn't open my damn mouth.  I hope somehow you  see this and reply because I would love the opportunity to talk with  you.  Obviously we share similar political sympathies.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>8. This guy is looking for a former lover that he's nicknamed "Asian Orange." Wonder why she left him in the first place?</strong></p>

<p>I saw you at the protest yesterday. Black jacket, yellow shirt. Head  shaved on one side. It's been a couple years, but you're still gorgeous  and immediately recognizable.<br />
You made a few circles and it seemed like you might be debating whether  you were going to acknowledge me or not. I'm glad you didn't. I would  have thought you were trying to set me up like you did last time we  talked.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>9. We have a feeling this is the same guy as #3, but he's gotten a tad more aggressive about needing to bang out his anger over Wall Street. Now your subject line needs to read "F*ck Wall Street" when replying, which is actually kind of clever.</strong></p>

<p>Hello,<br />
My name is Dru Cutler. I am a musician and composer and (like many  of you) I owe Sallie Mae $25,126.32 in student loans. These loan  payments are making it difficult to live, afford health insurance and  other necessities. In the past few months I have met hundreds of people  in the same predicament, therefore I am arranging musicians with student  debt to play at Occupy Wall Street on Wednesday, 5th from 2pm-5pm. We  will wear caps and gowns and display signs of the actual amount we owe  Sallie Mae (or similar companies) and play a variety of music depending  on instrumentation. I'd love to have 10+ people. Email me if you want to  fight for change.</p>
<p>All instruments are welcome, but looking for:<br />
Guitar<br />
Bass<br />
Violin<br />
Viola<br />
Cello<br />
Banjo<br />
Mandolin<br />
Trumpet<br />
Trombone<br />
Sax<br />
Any Singers<br />
Drumset<br />
Percussion</p>
<p>I'm also looking for anyone who my donate (or let us borrow) a Cap or Gown from graduation. We could use more.</p>
<p>If you read music, great! If not, thats ok too! I'll draw up lead sheets once I have an ensemble in place.<br />
Thanks for your time! See you soon.</p>
<p>Dru Cutler</p></blockquote>

<p>So yeah, I need a shower so I don't smell bad anymore. It's not  overwhelming, but it's at the point where I'm bothered by it. I assume  it's slightly noticeable at this point, but I try to stay clean. If  anything develops afterwards, so be it. However, I would really  appreciate just a shower. 22, 6' tall, stocky, brown skin, attractive  facial features (people say I have really nice teeth and eyes a lot),  and fairly easy to get along with. Email me?</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>7. This guy is looking for a girl with tattoos and blonde hair who has been to Central Booking. That doesn't really narrow it down, does it?</strong></p>

<p>I saw you when we were marching from the park to NYPD headquarters and  once we got to the plaza, I was about 2 people behind you.  You are an  amazingly striking blond with extremely stylish large silver hoop  earrings and a very nice outfit.  You also have peacock feathers  tattooed on your right shoulder blade.  I was incredibly taken by you  but am also rather tongue-tied around strangers.  I think you even took  my photo- I was carry a book (and dressed head to toe in black with  sunglasses) but I still couldn't open my damn mouth.  I hope somehow you  see this and reply because I would love the opportunity to talk with  you.  Obviously we share similar political sympathies.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>8. This guy is looking for a former lover that he's nicknamed "Asian Orange." Wonder why she left him in the first place?</strong></p>

<p>I saw you at the protest yesterday. Black jacket, yellow shirt. Head  shaved on one side. It's been a couple years, but you're still gorgeous  and immediately recognizable.<br />
You made a few circles and it seemed like you might be debating whether  you were going to acknowledge me or not. I'm glad you didn't. I would  have thought you were trying to set me up like you did last time we  talked.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>9. We have a feeling this is the same guy as #3, but he's gotten a tad more aggressive about needing to bang out his anger over Wall Street. Now your subject line needs to read "F*ck Wall Street" when replying, which is actually kind of clever.</strong></p>

<blockquote><p>March in protest of our corrupt financial system with me. Maybe  afterwards we can take out any left over frustration on each other at  your place. I'm 5'8" 180lbs white, dark hair, blue eyes. Not bad  looking. So if you're interested hit me up with "Fuck Wall Street" in  the subject line of the email. March starts at 3pm.</p></blockquote>

<p>Hello,<br />
My name is Dru Cutler. I am a musician and composer and (like many  of you) I owe Sallie Mae $25,126.32 in student loans. These loan  payments are making it difficult to live, afford health insurance and  other necessities. In the past few months I have met hundreds of people  in the same predicament, therefore I am arranging musicians with student  debt to play at Occupy Wall Street on Wednesday, 5th from 2pm-5pm. We  will wear caps and gowns and display signs of the actual amount we owe  Sallie Mae (or similar companies) and play a variety of music depending  on instrumentation. I'd love to have 10+ people. Email me if you want to  fight for change.</p>
<p>All instruments are welcome, but looking for:<br />
Guitar<br />
Bass<br />
Violin<br />
Viola<br />
Cello<br />
Banjo<br />
Mandolin<br />
Trumpet<br />
Trombone<br />
Sax<br />
Any Singers<br />
Drumset<br />
Percussion</p>
<p>I'm also looking for anyone who my donate (or let us borrow) a Cap or Gown from graduation. We could use more.</p>
<p>If you read music, great! If not, thats ok too! I'll draw up lead sheets once I have an ensemble in place.<br />
Thanks for your time! See you soon.</p>
<p>Dru Cutler</p></blockquote>
