A good day

[pch1.livejournal.com]

So I knew yesterday was going to be a good day when I was able to walk by both Starbucks and Diesel Cafe without being approached by any of the kids repping Save The GreenPeace Children from Masspirg.  Then I started to wonder, why is it that these guys can so relentlessly solicit donations everyday, yet if they were to put down their clipboards and strap on a guitar and play for donations they could be ticketed or asked to stop for performing without a permit.

What's up with the priorities around here.  I'd much rather be passing by a street performer than a political missionary.

I'm thinking this may be a reasonable topic to bring up with DARBI or the Davis Square Task Force or both.

Oh, please do. I have never yet found the body language to make them not intrude on me, and they make me want to stab everything in sight. (I, also, change my walking routes and choice of local business to avoid them. It is simply no longer worth it to plan on going to Diesel in the summer. At least Starbucks has one door that's usually safe.)
