A Dog, a Cat, and a Rat

Economy got you down? Here’s a thought.

The guy below was walking down Union Street in San Francisco last Saturday with a dog, a cat, and a rat -- all carefully balanced -- pausing to take pictures with the suckers (like me!) who were out ‘n about. After collecting a *tidy* profit, he jumped into a cab, menagerie and all, to panhandle another part of town. Seems the recession has not affected him greatly.

Only in San Francisco. Crazy, cartoonish, entrepreneurial San Francisco.
