This is awesome! It was staged!
This video starts out slow, but you must watch the entire thing:
So Shmuly from OneParkAvenueReality consistently chats to me ever since Netscape Video first launched and he tried to convince me to make him a featured vlogger on Netscape. This was back when he was on his second or third show, so I pretty much laughed him off. I have to say, though. Of all the followers who ping me all the time post Netscape, Shmuly is by far the most entertaining. A few weeks ago, he pinged me to show off his appearance in the New York Times and to tell me how he proved me wrong, because I said he’d never make it (which I never, by the way, said; I just said that he wasn’t a good fit for Netscape, which he wasn’t). Last week, he popped into chat to tell me that he had legally changed his name to C.K. Sample IIII. Pretty funny / scary.
Anyway, I have to hand it to him. The fact that he just walked into the Seattle PI offices with a camera and filmed the whole thing is amazing. Really gutsy and really funny too. I love it when he zooms in on Monica Guzzman’s ID badge and says, “I can’t believe security let me in here.”
UPDATE: Aw, crap, it was all staged. LAME.

Tremendous Lettermanesque piece. I love how he picked things up off her desk. “I think it would be a good idea if you gave me your cell phone number.” Fabulous.
