I thought this was interesting because of the recent thread on the subject.
From dictionary.com:
Word of the Day for Saturday September 3, 2005
busker \BUS-kur\, noun:
A person who entertains (as by playing music) in public places.
Jakub is a student of mathematics, a likable but callow young man who seduces a blind busker, Alzbeta, who plays for the tourists in modern Prague.
--Andrew Miller, "Waiting for Something to Happen," New York Times, October 24, 1999
(Mark: I would have pasted a web link, but the word changes daily.)

....but unbeknownst to Jakub ,Alzbetha was a Romany who only pretended blindness. When he awoke he discovered his wallet and shoes were nowhere to be found.....as was also Alzbetha.

TKS M, B and R, for busker commentary, "Today is [already] a good one, I've learned something, [I think]". Remembering street musicians, I've been wondering about Doreen, and her band, of Jackson Square CLARINET playing fame. Will have to try to re-find her web site, if it survived the flood, etc. Any news? Don
Thanx, Mark, Don
