In every decade, there comes a Microsoft ad so bad, so horrible, that twenty years later nerds gather around and get all riled up about how horrible a company Microsoft is.  (For an example, here is the 80′s Microsoft commercial, which I posted about earlier).

For 16 weeks I’ve been taking a series of Improv classes, aptly titled Improv 101 and Improv 201 at Jet City Improv.  As an added bonus, at the end of Improv 201 you get to do a live showcase.  And as such, some Youtube is now needed.

Those are the parts I’m in, but if you’d like you can always check out the entire playlist for our whole showcase.  I was fortunate to sign up into a class of absolutely fantastic and creative people.
