Just Goofing Around..

hello again!
I was reading the paper recently and there was an article about young people doing different kinds of pranks across the country. It just cracked me up! Some of the pranks being done were really funny. In one of them there were people lined in a subway car mirroring each other. Another prank was a finish line put up with people cheering along the sidelines, while unsuspecting bikers/joggers would find themselves caught in a marathon race. There were so many other outrageous ones too, but what I found was really cool was that the people pulling off these pranks were just trying to spice up the world a little. Get everyone out of their old boring routines. I think that's important for our world today. Some people our too caught up in what's going on they don't take the time to laugh a little.
Another thing I was thinking of when I read this article is what it would be like to have that happen to you. So your just walking down the street and out of nowhere strangers burst into song and dance around the streets as if no one is there but them. How outrageous would that be? If it happened to me, I would probably have to join them!
Have you ever thought about doing something crazy like that? I mean besides the fun, spontaneous things you may do with your friends, but getting a huge group of people, most of whom you probably don't even know, and acting totally crazy! I think it would be so much fun! I'm sure you might get some pretty strange looks, but isn't that half the fun of it? So, next time you see someone walking down the street looking pretty gloomy, try and brighten their day with something as simple as a smile.
