Happy clouds and men in leather
Saturday:
I did this with friends. I entered alone into Central Park, joining with approximately 150 other people, all wearing headphones and mp3 players. After a slight delay, our MP3 Experiment III host floated towards us. That is not cellulite.
The experiment consisted of an MP3 track that all of us were listening to individually but experiencing as a group. We had to play a weird game of Simon Says and then follow our guide on a search for Steve. Who was Steve?
Steve was a holy being who decides who will be element of the year. Would it be our darling but single cloud, another group's snowflake, raindrop, or sun? It came down to all of us converging upon some rather panicked park people, who suddenly had an elemental wrestling match going on.
Sadly, my elemental was the first to fall, followed by the snowflake, then the raindrop, leaving the victorious chicken-legged sun. All four groups numbered around 500-600 people, cheering this on, finishing with a giant conga line. I opted not to touch the gross sweaty back of the large man in front of me, but otherwise thought it was grand.
Tomorrow I'll talk about Folsom.

It was more fun than lying around at home whacking off to fantasies about Wilmer Valderrama, but not as much fun as fantasizing about Jake Gyllenhaal.

Sometimes I am so jealous of you New Yorkers! Nothing like this ever happens in DC! Very interesting to say the least!

While this sounds similar to things I tried to organize in high school, I never got 600 people to participate - New York certainly is a magical place.
