The "S's" of the City





In addition to skyscrapers, subways, and shopping, and scams, New York can boast it has another fabulous "S" ... the Street performer.

While walking to FAO Schwartz, we stumbled upon a group of young men trying to make a few dollars as dancers. They had bright yellow sweatshirts on and a big bucket that tourists could drop money in if they saw something they liked. Of course, I gave them a dollar. Not because it was an exceptionally good or that they were overly entertaining or talented. Rather, I gave the dollar because I knew that those obnoxiously bright yellow sweaters would look like a fabulous burst of color on my blog. I was right!
