It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

From Nerve.com:
If you're like us and didn't have nearly as much fun at your high school's expense as you think other people did, maybe you can live vicariously from this classic stage invasion during the Saratoga Springs High School graduation...
At the ceremony yesterday, Calvin Morett, who graduated from the New York State-school in '07, "streaked" across the stage in a full-body penis costume while diplomas were being handed out. On top of that, Morett fired "silly string" into the crowd, which must have caused a total freakout from the nastiness of it all.
Anyway, the best part of the story is how they busted Morett, who actually tried to outrun the cops that eventually busted him for disorderly conduct:
"Once I stopped laughing, he was pretty easy to catch because he was tripping on the lower portion of the costume,' said [Sgt.] Briscoe, who made the arrest.
Ah, Sgt. Briscoe, you took the punchline out of the joke-- he was tripping balls! He was tripping his balls off! Dude, he tripped over his balls and was captured by the police.
Anyway, thanks for making our day, Calvin, you fearless kook...

In another story about the incident - the police came up with a great line.
When asked if police were looking for accomplices, Briscoe joked, "We believe the gunman acted alone."

Posted: 6/27/08 at 11:45amWhere do you find a full-body penis costume, and how much would one pay for such a thing?

According to another article:
"Police said the penis outfit was a commercially-purchased inflatable device that came with a battery pack."

Sounds like a guy I dated once.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

I know a lot of people who should have the fact that they are enormous pr#cks emblazoned on their permanent record.

Posted: 6/27/08 at 12:55pmthat costume doesn't look like what it's intended to look like. My first thought was that it is an homage to the Big Bird costume creator.

Posted: 6/27/08 at 8:42pmI really hope that happens at my graduation. That's hilarious.
"You have two kinds of shows on Broadway – revivals and the same kind of musicals over and over again, all spectacles. You get your tickets for The Lion King a year in advance, and essentially a family... pass on to their children the idea that that's what the theater is – a spectacular musical you see once a year, a stage version of a movie. It has nothing to do with theater at all. It has to do with seeing what is familiar.... I don't think the theatre will die per se, but it's never going to be what it was.... It's a tourist attraction." Stephen Sondheim
