anyhow, here are a few interesting little things. i am not one for sending the group email...but if i were, i would definitely send you this.
i used to work in the met life building and would pass through grand central every day on my way to work, and i can tell you first hand, there is always some kind of kooky shit going on in there. and there are always a bunch of overwhelmed, occasionally lost tourists to witness it. it is a great combination.
this definitely takes the proverbial cake, however. way to totally freak a whole bunch of people out! they will take that shit home to connecticut and tell their neighbors about it for days.

among the not-as-freakish-but-still-cool things that have happened in grand central:
a) i once almost ran straight into the camera guy who was filming bill maher and whoever was interviewing him as they walked through the terminal. like a true new yorker, i didn't even realize that someone famous was afoot until i happened to realize that they guy who almost collided with me was pointing his gigantic video camera at someone. and i probably still wouldn't have been able to tell who it was, except that bill maher's head is the size of a medicine ball. or for those of you who were born in the 20th century, a really fucking large pumpkin.
b) my friends, mike simon and megan lyles, got married at grand central a few weeks ago, on the sly, showing up at 11:30am sharp with his parents, her grandpa, a photographer and a dude to perform the ceremony. they just stopped and got married, and then went to lunch at metrazur.
c) there was always endless amounts of fun in watching hedge-fund dudes with expensive suits and starbucks trip up the escalator in the morning. they get REALLY mad about that kind of shit. i think it brings them back to being ridiculed in high school or something. good times.
