that was funny, but I can see that certain types might be endangered.

If they tried that here, people would just ignore it.

You got that right. Just don't make eye contact.
 
I shared an elevator today with a woman in a sequined opera cape and matching cat-eye glasses. Older lady. I guess it's here personal fashion statement. Note that we are nowhere near halloween.  Then there was the guy in a camouflage kilt.
 
I figure as long as they don't try to bum any money from me, it's alright.

I got so engrossed in some of the other clips I forgot all about the elevator and the girl with the doll.  Call Sky to interperate, then he informed me they were not speaking Spanish, but Portuguese.  We cracked up with the one in the Car Show Room.  Thought that last gal was going to put a hurting on the guy she was with, or the salesman.

A 'Veteran' -- whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve -- is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.

Ah yes I watched the skit in  the car show room too! ;)   Not that I was paying close attention to the dialog but I didnt think it sounded like spanish.

That is fascinating. I watched the whole thing last night and was amazed. This was a cruel prank but it does give a lot of insight into how we respond to things like this. We like to think we'd be somehow heroic in odd situations like this, but when real situations emerge, our true reactions take over.
