1. Now that is just too plain funny NOT to..

Sure, Why the hell not? I'll give it a shot!

2. That's hilarious.

And New Yorkers would have to get up early to jump at 6:39 a.m.

Jump rope contests? They haven't shifted the earth's orbit yet, and I hear there are some highly skilled rope jumpers in Harlem.

...The jump-rope game of “Double Dutch” was probably invented in New York City, before 1900. “Double Dutch” tournaments were re-introduced in New York City in 1974...

3. They can't be serious.

This looks to me like a way to market t-shirts and bumperstickers. It looks like the bumperstickers are sold out. I guess there's some truth to the saying about one being born every minute.

Won't work, but such a sweet idea! I love seeing people getting together to do things like this.
