    PR is a good sport. He got compared to Seth Green a while back and was a good sport about it, I imagine he's laughing at the Geraldo comment.

    It's funny to watch cops make gestures to a crowd to move along and nobody moves...and the cops don't seem to really try that hard either or actually care

    I do give them the finger tho if I happen to be watching while I ride by on the bus lol they didn't seem to care about that either

    the ones i love seeing the most generally involve a lot of rehersal and preperation before hand, and are actually sort of staged to seem spontanious.

    one evening when i was living in seattle for a couple of years in the mid 70s, i was on the U of W campus. i used to hang out at university libraries all the time, especially the science and engineering libraries. (yes reading books).

    and any way, i think i was on my way to or from the campus chow hall they had there at the time, and the monkey dance, complete with, what do they call those belanese orchestra with the kind of marimba like instruments, the name is on the tip of my old timer's brain fart, anyway, these were people from there and it was like the first time it was performed in the wastern hemispher or in the u.s. or something. well anyway there was this big paved space between the libaries and the chow hall, i wouldn't exactly call it the quad, but near there, anyway, all around me it started up, and there are like a lot of really obvious 'chorus' parts anyone can join in on, or at least i did anyway. so it was a lot of fun.

    they were like maybe a third of the crown or a quarter of us, dispersed throughout. and i guess its like the story of "going to the west" or something. you know like the story of the monkey king? anyway there's a lot of repetitive chanting that wasn't hard to pick up on and anticipate the changes and know when to come in on and when to improvise.

    that was a long time ago, and i was a lot smarter about such things then.

    but i really like seeing a concert orchestra show up some place, one instrument at a time. and the each kind of show up just in time to hit their marks and be in the grove.

    i've seen a bunch of videos of those and they're amazing. i haven't been where one of those happened yet though.

    there's also, sometimes the furrys organize something like that too.

    I really want to get into doing flash mobs...I was actually going to create a meet-up group for that. Totally on my bucket list for this year.
