improv spirit animals

Post by Rev. Jordan T. Maxwell »

all right...so if Kevin Miller is a bear, Ruby is a giraffe, Dana is an owl and Jeremy is a lamb (bearded, sweet or otherwise), what do you think is YOUR improv spirit animal, or the improv spirit animal of others in the community?

obviously, Bill Stern is a horse...because horses are preeeetty sweet, dude. 8)

The silver knives are flashing in the tired old cafe. A ghost climbs on the table in a bridal negligee. She says "My body is the life; my body is the way." I raise my arm against it all and I catch the bride's bouquet.

I believe I'm a fox. That's what my actual spirit animal is, and I'm sticking to it.

i've always felt an affinity for horses, dolphins and elephants. so if not a rooster, maybe one of those...
