Improv Everywhere in a L.A. food court

One of the benefits of the Web is that you can serendipitously find something while looking for something else. I suspect many have seen this but for those who haven't:

Thanks for the link--that was way beyond improv!

Also, January 10, 2010 was the ninth annual "No Pants Subway Ride" day for Improv Everywhere in New York City. Here is a quick debriefing.

There were over 3,000 participants spread over six meeting spots and 10 different subway lines. Beyond NYC the "No Pants Subway Ride" this year spread across 44 cities and 16 countries around the world from Stockholm (not sure of the temperature but the 8 that participated got a lot of news coverage) to Buenos Aires (88 degrees and some non participants had even less on). An estimated 5,000 participated in total, so NYC beats the pants of the rest.

Nothing much to uncover except that everyone seemed to have a good time and plenty of revealing stories. No one seemed to get their knickers in a swivet except Cleveland where 10 participants road a couple of stops before the subway was halted and 4 policemen threatened to arrest them. How come Cleveland is so funny?
