(Upper East Side-WABC, August 18, 2004) — It is one thing to picket City Hall, but the stakes are upped measurably when you camp outside the mayor's bedroom window.
The cops weren't called to the residence this morning-- they arrived on their own at 1:00am, as did firefighters. Both unions are looking for new contracts and a new way to get under the mayor's skin.

Protestors: "We are desperately seeking a contract and we are trying to get the mayor to come back to the table."
That desperation has led to escalating protests. Over the past couple of weeks, union members have followed mayor Bloomberg all over town with pickets and demonstrations. So far, Bloomberg says he won't back down.

Full story.
Hope they keep the little bastard awake for a week or two.
