At least the one yawning is awake, most of the rest look like they are auditioning for the TV series "The Walking Dead"!

USBport - Love your caption. I gave it a GA, but it's worth a special mention here.

I'll have a fit of giggles every time I see someone yawn now.

Brian: "Don't blindly follow me! You are all individuals!"

Crowd (in slow unison): "Yes, we are all individuals."

The Runt at the End: "I'm not."

( Runt gets angrily shushed by the people around him. )

-from Monty Python's Life of Brian.
