Absurdity and "They're Just Now Thinking of This?"

Absurdity

There is an organization call Improv Everywhere.  Their mission is:  a celebration of silliness.
As proof,  I tender this tidbit.  Sunday was their promotion of Sunday No Pants Subway Ride" wherein volunteers went to subway stations in New York, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, London and Moscow and there, removed their pants/skirt (this includes males)  and got on a subway in their underpants.  The people pictured in the shots I saw seemed composed, if a little nervous. 

A Long-awaited Afterthought

The Tournament of Roses Association will meet in February to decide the amount of the fines to be assigned to those floats  who disrupted the parade by having to stop due to a flat tire, engine fire or other disaster. 

In a fit of giddiness possibly inspired by finally thinking of it, the Tournament of Roses Association will be sticking it to offenders with fines ranging from $1,000 to $80,000 and (sinisterly) up.
