my physics teacher is doin a caption compo: the pic is of a busker upside down in the street with his head buried in the ground... i think hes got a hat or something next to him to collect money in. some others have submitted captions like "thats the way to get ahead in the paving business' and SHIT like that. i'm sure to win. um... post your captions here.

I'm glad YOU asked. I thought I'd sound like an idiot for not knowing what a "busker" was... :)<br><br>I guess I'm not the only one. So what is it?

To play music or perform entertainment in a public place, usually while soliciting money.<br><br>thats the dictionary defintion. but basically anyone on the side of the street with a blind dog, asking for money.

Thanks for the definition of "busker".  Here in the States we call that person a "liberal arts graduate".<br><br>
