Improv Everywhere

You’ve probably seen this by now, but it has just come in front of my path.  I’ve seen a couple of these on their website, and this one is GOOD.  It makes me want to live in NY and be a part of this.  How fun would it be to come up with this stuff?

Where’d they go?

I’m looking for 10 simple calories.
I’m trying to lose weight (again) and I’m following a weight watcher’s kind of diet.  I was reading the label on my Smart Pop 1-serving size Kettle Corn and noticed that there are 110 calories in the unpopped popcorn and 100 calories once is it popped.

Cameron scores in about every other game.  His first season, he maybe scored once, a few times in [...]

You know what? Life kinda sucks sometimes.

I’m on an emotional edge lately, and it just seems to be all about the sadness around me. Life is just plain unfair sometimes, and it is so hard to see the heartache that some people in my life are facing.  And I’m powerless.  I can’t stop it, I can’t make it better, I can’t [...]
