On my way home from my company holiday party, I figured I’d not take a cab but the subway, being that there was a remote chance it was my last subway ride for a while.

Getting off at Bloomie’s, I caught possibly one of the best subway “acts” I’ve seen in a while. My words won’t do it justice, but picture this: 70-something male, greasy, chin-length gray hair combed-over, army fatigues. Playing “Besame Mucho” on a crappy $75 Casio keyboard. Now here’s the best part: he was accompanied by three dancing dolls: GI Joe flanked by two Barbies.

I simply had to give him a buck.
