Subway Encounters, and the like

So I wanted to list the encounters I've had so far over the past month just so I don't forget...

1. An old homeless man that told me to have a good day and said, "You know, you're a pretty girl--" I didn't hear the rest because I ran right out the door and up the stairs.

2. A full mariachi band.

3. A guy who could dance like crazy and could dislocate his arm in several positions so it could wrap around himself around the back.

4. A mentally handicap young man, who took to listening to his phone boombox, singing 3 pitches over and over for a half hour, as an Indian woman close to him stifled laughter.

5. A man who was giving out free food, explaining that he had exchanged his life as a crack head for a life of faith with Jesus, and wanted donations. This wouldn't be so bad if his voice was not as loud and abrasive as DMX at 6:45am.

6. A series of random " 'scuze me. I will only take a minute of your time, but I have AIDS and kids and I am jobless and homeless. Please give me money."

7. The most beautiful children I've ever seen dressed like each other and their mother.

And the list will continue I'm sure...
