COINCIDENCE'S

[nick nickolas]

There were a lot of statues in Covent Garden, who will move for 20p,
hey I just give 'em a fiver and say move, move and keep moving 'till your well away from here!

I roomed with Albert Stone from Melbourne in Singapore. He took the statue act quite seriously, and did well with it. He had this fake black foam which really looked like rock, and he was forever making improvements. He was designing a series of postcards when we worked that fest.
I did the Halifax/ St John /Sydney tour with John from invisible circus a few years ago, and he did transport onlookers to a different reality. He did a dreamlike look, with conical hat. Always made the papers. He induced quiet. John and I went to the bars, and when people asked him what he did for work, he would look 'em dead in the face and reply "Fuck All".
I'll take the fiver to move along now, Nick.

Most of the statues in covent garden are shite, it's true. That clockwork guardsmans for example...

I do like the act of the guy who has the sqweeker in his mouth and the long tube arm and all that. He's not really a statue, he's more like a costume character on the street. He's good for about 2-4 minutes and then you move on.

Then again, I also like Kylie Minogue...

Is it a coincedence that Taxi keeps calling me Jesus and then I find this article

HOMELESS YOUNG MAGICIAN FINDS CHRIST

Daily, the Blitz team would go out to the streets of Queretaro and hand out flyers for the festival. Some of the group met a homeless 19-year-old street magician called Juan who had been living on the streets for three weeks. One of the team explained, "He offered to help hand out flyers even though he did not know what the purpose of them was. During our lunch break, and with Margie Dean translating, seven team members shared the Gospel with Juan in a direct way. In God's perfect timing, Juan accepted the Lord. The team laid hands on him and prayed. Then he joined the team in street witnessing and the team then provided him with a shower and change of clothing and a place to sleep. They are now connecting him with a local church.

multiplying loaves and fishes:
multiplying tennis balls
healing lepers:
wheedling volunteeers,
water into wine:
wine into, well, waterish substance.

Its all right there if you know where to look.

Hey, there are times I've been on the road that I would have sold my soul to the Jesus for a hot shower and a warm toilet seat.

P.S. Nick, didn't you hear that this year's convention for children of functional families was cancelled due to lack of enrollment? Buskers don't have a monopoly on dysfunctionality. Just go to a Peta rally and kick a puppy. You'll see.
