No video exists to my awareness. Heck, I think the pictures were frowned on, but my friend took them anyway.
You'll just have to come and watch. :)
Yeah, it's generally not considered kosher to film improv shows.

Congrats, Ezee! I always thought improv comedy was extremely difficult. I never really felt successful at it.
It's Friday evening. People are coming home from work, walking their dogs, meeting friends for drinks, going out to dinnner, whatever.
Outside just now I passed a woman with a full grown pig. She was walking it on a leash, as if it were a dog.
I've lived in cities my entire adult life. I've seen a lot of random, weird shit in the streets but that's the first time I've seen that.
Ha. Somewhere, sometime, someone said that pigs have as much personality as a dog. Since then, I've heard of way more people getting them as pets.Quote:

They were intelligent. Too intelligent. They were smart enough to make trouble-- getting into things they shouldn't, making messes, playing games with each other that caused problems. Their snouts are super strong, and one night they straight-up dug through the drywall in the hallway. hey would also push their snouts into me as a sign of affection, and it was so hard that I had bruises up and down from it.
They were very sweet, but I don't think I would actually want one as a pet.
I would totally love a pet goat, but I would keep it as an outside friend.
A friend of mine who visited a farm the other day talked about goats and when they were kids, they were the sweetest things ever. She returned a year later and they were the biggest jerks around. Impossible to control, headbutting her and any other animal around, and always escaping. "They would be horrible pets." lol.Quote:

Good for you Winston. I've been meatless for for about 16 months now. I get a lot of good-natured ribbing at work, but I'm very comfortable with the lifestyle choice.Quote:

Haven't tried fake meat yet but probably will now bbq season's starting over here. Tofu can be really nice. I like the Japanese style a lot.
Have you given up on animal products like fish sauce, hockey stock etc? I'm not going that far.
I mainly avoid animal meat, ie. I'm not vegan. So, I stiil do milk and cheeses, and I draw the line at eggs.
I still do eggs, though I have and will always buy free range ( I think anything else should be illegal).
This is actually a great idea -- our city allows residents to keep chickens inside city limits, so we've been thinking about investing in a chicken coop and a couple of hens. We've got a fenced-in back yard and an Irish Setter, so maybe it could work...Quote:

Most of our eggs come from friends how have chickens and can't give away eggs fast enough.Quote:

1000 pound pig? That's some good bacon.Quote:
