Telling ticker tape

Yankees Ticker Tape Parade 4, originally uploaded by Daniella Zalcman.

As you can see from the above picture, today's version of ticker tape includes whole pages of paper flung from office windows. I noticed that pages floating around me during my short drop-by at the Yankees parade in the Financial District looked like pages from a law reference binder, so I checkout out the text:

The law regarding judicial administration of corporate bankruptcy. At the same time, the crowd was shouting "Wall Street sucks!"

The experience of hundreds of people pressed together in a small alley was for the most part Hobbesian, but I gotta admit I laughed when the little kids standing next to me heartily joined in that chant.
