- Go to "Wooh! Wooh! Wooh":an inner monologue in a fast-food restaraunt
I don't doubt it one bit, Luz...
...I walked into my neighborhood McDonalds last year to an elderly man playing the harmonica at the counter while he waited for his food, and judging by the reaction of the workers and even some customers, he's done it before.
I could tell he wasn't homeless or even scruffy, and he played masterfully to a round of applause when he finished.
Quite an unexpected and interesting experience to walk into. You just never know, do ya?

Interesting take on the poor chap, and I like the 'Singing Beggar' title best.

Reminds me of the two guys working for a tax refunding company who dress up
in gowns and wear green makeup to look like the Statue of Liberty and stand outside waving at potential customers driving by...
