[EVERGREEN VERSION]
It’s the best of part of any international summit conferences.  This is Dave Ross.  On the CBS Radio Network.

From time to time, the leaders of the big industrial nations gather at some picturesque palace and eat fancy food while discussing matters they have no clue how to solve, like Global Warming and African poverty.

But  the real action at these conferences has always been OUTSIDE, thanks to that unique species of protestor, the migratory anarchist.

There are many subspecies of the migratory anarchist – one of the most colorful ones is the "clandestine insurgent clown rebel army,” distinguished by their military fatigue plumage and bright red noses, and notable for their unpredictable behavior patterns, such as the one who appeared as an enormous rabbit, waving a giant carrot at police horses.
Their favorite prey is the Starbucks outlet. You will frequently see them swarm a Starbucks, marking territory, and occasionally liberating merchandise.   They are born with this instinct, and a good thing too, because were it not for the migratory anarchist, the ecosystem would be overrun with marauding latte franchises.
Although flightless, the migratory anarchist is able travel thousands  of miles and easily adapts to almost any urban surrounding, using whatever is available – beer cans, paving stones, park benches -- to defend against their natural predator, the helmeted riot police.

They are beautifully adapted for that challenge, equipped with capacious lungs, an amazingly obscene vocabulary, and a remarkable ability to go limp at will.

And the best part is, you can easily attract a flock to your own city -- simply host a big conference and include the word “summit” in the title.  And then prepare to marvel at nature’s diversity!
