I meant to post this closer to April 1st, but I got a bit caught up with the whole MGS4 review (which was a complete lie, in case you didn't catch on. I WAS asked to do that review... But for an April Fool's Joke. Apparently I'm good at acting like a crazy person) and other online pranks.
Then I developed a bit of an unhealthy obsession with The Miley and Mandy Show, so that's what any YouTube time was spent on. It's just, you know... If I'm gonna choose between watching two extremely attractive, strong Christian girls make ridiculous videos, or some kid wave a fake lightsaber around... I choose the ladies. Now, if only they would response to my messages...
But anyways, I've mentioned the ImprovEverywhere folks before, but I was shown this video by a friend recently, and I thought some of you (particularly my sister) would get a kick out of it... You know how in musicals, everybody just busts into song and dance in the middle of random public places? What if that really happened? NOW IT HAS!
Anyone wanna help me do something like this in Lubbock or Dallas? :-P Maybe not a musical, but SOMETHING, dang it!

Frozen Grand Central
Maybe you've heard of Improv Everywhere... They've become pretty popular, especially lately, and many news sources (including the Associated Press) have covered their antics. Essentially, they're a group of people that collectively get together and pull huge pranks, causing scenes of "chaos and joy" in public places.
One of my favorite "missions" of their's (so far), I think, is when they infiltrated Best Buy wearing the traditional royal blue shirts and khaki pants. This was actually the first time I had really heard about them, and I laughed very hard at the videos and testimonies from their "agents". They've also looped time, which I imagine was great to watch.
Recently, they all decided to gather in Grand Central Station in New York, scatter, pretend to mind their own business, and then FREEZE all at the exact same moment, for the exact same amount of time.
The results, as expected, were hilarious.

As usual, employees don't know what the heck to think, but I think my favorite part is the people that are almost freaking out, apparently wondering if space aliens invaded and decided to freeze half the population or something. Pure gold.
And cheering when they finished? Fantastic.
Anyway, check them out if you're into improv/humor. There's some great stuff on there.
