Good News

With a number of cherished celebrities dying recently, rising unemployment, and other melancholy events usurping the headlines, it was very refreshing to see some good news.

Random acts of kindness will get us through times of peril, and this New York group Improv Everywhere creates scenes of chaos and joy in public places. One of their best missions was adding a little jazz to a mundane little league game.

When I was much younger, I did such things, not quite so elaborate as these skits, but little impromptu scenes with my friends that most onlookers would view as weird or amusing. The satisfaction of doing that was so much fun, I'm now thinking of how to do that again.
