The start of 2009 brings promises of many exciting transitions and sacred traditions. Good times and hardships are looming ahead. Many look forward to Obama's inaugurational speech coming up tomorrow. His presidency represents an exciting transition: a change in America, not only in the way its governed, but in who is governing it. As for sacred traditions that the start of a new year brings, we turn to the famous No Pants Subway Ride. Oh yes. ImprovEverywhere celebrated their eighth year of the subway ride, during which volunteers, or 'agents' removed their pants while on public transportation. You may remember my mention of it in this post where I introduced you all to the wonderful world of ImprovEverywhere. This event occurs on the same day every year, and was this year joined in by 1,200 agents, male and female, in 24 different cities across the globe. Young and old removed their drawers in the freezing cold for the sake of comedy. For just a little taste of the fun of this project, watch this video.
