So we've all gone our separate ways, and its harder to meet up as we used to.

If you call NOW~ we'll even throw in the trash talking from Ani for free :)

Quotes of the New Year
"Donald Trump is a cornball bling bling TV showman, he's like a poor guy's comic-book version of a rich guy. Everyday modern super-rich guys tend to be glum and somewhat cheerless Type A overachievers, very dedicated and focussed. They're kind of a drag to be around, frankly. "
"Climate change is not gonna be combatted through voluntary acts of individual charity. It's gonna be combatted through some kind of colossal, global-scaled, multilateral, hectic, catch-as-catch-can effort to stop burning stuff, suck the burnt smoke out of the sky, and put the smoke back into the ground. That's not gonna get done a little green teacup at a time, because we've been doing it for two centuries and we don't have two centuries to undo it. ."
-- Bruce Sterling.
Bruce Sterling's "State of the World" address on thewell.com is up and on-going. If you haven't readany of hsi stuff, I strongly recommend it. Check out the address here.

Fwd: The Sixth Annual No Pants Subway Ride
Improv Everywhere is ALWAYS a blast and you guys SHOULD definitely, and I mean DEFINITELY go do this if you can.
Unfortunately I will be in California during this stunt, but GO - and take your pants off.. You can wear long underwear underneath. Last year people showed up with 8 pairs of underwear underneath their pants and it STILL rocked!
===============================================
Agents,
All are invited to participate in the 6th Annual No Pants! Subway Ride. The event will take place at 3:00 PM on Saturday, January 13. Everything you need to know is in this email. Please read it carefully!
REQUIREMENTS FOR PARTICIPATION
1) Willing to take pants off on subway
2) Able to keep a straight face about it
**THIS IS A PARTICIPATORY EVENT. DO NOT SHOW UP UNLESS YOU PLAN TO TAKE YOUR PANTS OFF. THIS INCLUDES NEWS MEDIA**
DETAILS
When: Saturday, January 13 at 3:00 PM, Sharp! (Over by around 5:30)
Where: Meet at Foley Square at the black sculpture/fountain. It's near the Brooklyn Bridge 6 train stop, between Centre and Lafayette, just north of Duane.
MAP: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=foley+square,+ny,+ny&btnG=Search
Bring: A backpack and a metro card.
Do not bring: A camera (don't worry we are taking pictures)
Wear: Normal winter clothes (hat, gloves, etc)
HOW IT WORKS
We will assemble in Foley Square at 3 PM. Please be on time. Feel free to be early.
When we're organized, we will all head down to the Brooklyn Bridge 6 Train stop together. Do not talk to others once you enter the subway system. No one knows each other. We will wait for a train to arrive on the uptown side of the tracks and all board our assigned cars (follow your team leader). A man with a megaphone will confirm that it is time to board the train. We may let one train go before entering to make sure everyone is ready.
Sit in the car as you normally would. Read a magazine or whatever you would normally do. Your team leader will have already divided you into smaller groups, assigning your group a specific stop where you will depants. Sit near your group.
As soon as the doors shut at the stop before yours, stand up and take your pants off and put them in your backpack. If you'd like to use a briefcase, purse, grocery bag, or whatever instead of a backpack that's fine too. You are responsible for your own pants and they should be with
you at all times. If anyone asks you why you've removed your pants, tell them that they were "getting uncomfortable" (or something along those lines.)
Exit the train at your assigned stop and stand on the platform, pantless. This is a new change for No Pants 2k7. You will wait on the platform for the next 6 train to arrive. Stay in the exact same place on the platform so you enter the next train in the same car as you exited the last train.
When you enter , act as you normally would. You do not know any of the other pantless riders. If questioned, tell folks that you "forgot to wear pants" and yes you are "a little cold". Insist that it is a coincidence that others also forgot their pants. Be nice and friendly and normal.
We will exit the train at 125th street. Pay attention so you don't miss this stop. We will then repeat the mission back down to Brooklyn Bridge.
You can wear fun underwear if you like, but nothing that screams out "I wore this because I'm doing a silly stunt." Wear two pairs of underwear if it makes you feel more comfortable. Avoid wearing a thong or anything else that might offend people. Our aim is to make people laugh, not piss them off.
If you haven't already, please take a moment to read the previous mission reports for the last five No Pants rides. They are located on the"Missions" page: http://www.improveverywhere.com/missions.php
This is always a blast, and I'm really happy that you are taking part in it. You may bring along friends if you like, but make sure they get a chance to read all of these instructions.
Please don't reply to this email. All questions will be answered at the meeting point.

My New Favorite Theme Song
It used to be "Life keeps bringing me back to you" from Just Shoot Me.
But now its :: I'm No Superman.
& yes I'm aware how little everyone cares about this.

It's interesting as well as pointless.

New tax collection scheme
Check out what the Bihari babu's came up with to boost their tax collection revenue!
Dead woman wins county race
This is funny and goes to show how dumb/ignorant/stupid people can be. Also poses some questions on the electoral format. This woman had been dead for nearly 2 months prior to the elections and no one decided that a replacement was in order? And if people knew that she was dead why would they vote for her? Was the other candidate such a sucker!!!! AMAZING!!!
r u ready?
rutgers is no longer a footnote in college football as just the birth place of the game. it has played well enugh to be actually ranked nationally ... 13 for now !
