The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Vermont! [link]

I KNOW!

It's the first state where it didn't come from the courts too! (since we know how well that can turn out).

Hurrah for Vermont!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

sara, when we moved, I ended up with a ton of bruises. And we didn't even pack ourselves. I am naturally clumsy, and when you're running around doing a ton of stuff, the chances of bruises increase. I fell on the stairs, I stopped a dolly with my leg, etc.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

The NYC pillow fight went fine, several friends were there.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I think the pillow fight issue is that, if pillows break open and feathers fly out, they're an enormous pain to clean up. Usually for big gatherings, cleanup costs are absorbed by permit costs, but something like this doesn't have a permit, usually.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

yep Hil - interesting how you never hear of flash-mop clean-ups or facebook/myspace organized hipster trash removal with synchronized ipod soundtrack.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

organized pillow fight at a downtown park.

The bout was part of a worldwide event organized on social networking Web sites.

So THAT'S what that was! Our neighborhood's e-mail newsletter had a one-line cryptic note that said "Pillow fight, 2 p.m. Saturday, [name] Park. Bring your own pillow."

I googled it, but I was really specific in my search terms, using "pillow fight" and the name of the park. Which explains why I didn't find anything about the worldwide event.

(No, I didn't participate.)

We should totally do that. With loud music. Like a dance-a-clean-a-thon.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

A co-worker went to the LA pillow fight. I have no interest in a pillow fight with strangers. Sounds like my idea of a nightmare. Kind of like Cuddle Parties (shudder), which another co-worker attends [link]

Weird co-workers!
