Berkeley Buskers? At 7:00 AM?

A charming older white guy with a walrus mustache outside the BART station was playing wicked amplified blues. He had some kind of folded coffee can percussion instrument strapped around his neck so he sounded a bit like an old record, in a good way. Seven assorted homeless dudes sat around him in a semi circle, fully awake and grooving. Hot Damn! Sign me up!! Listening to Cranford . Do you have your safety goggles? Everyone should have safety goggles. Eying: a Dremel of my own. The AP reports a 71 year old man fending off a 20 year old mugger with an ice scraper. The stupid young punk then ran to his girlfriend's house. The punk and the girlfriend were fighting when the police arrived.
