    Will Provide Anecdote About Poor For Amusement

    Another great moment in the intersection between the classes from today's Metropolitan Diary.

    Dear Diary:
    While walking on Atlantic Avenue near Third Street in Brooklyn, I came upon two creative street people with a sign that read:

    "Let's Do Lunch!
    You Buy !!!"

    Carol Kolins

    Yes! Let's appreciate the ingenuity of the homeless! They are without food, yet cleverly suggest that you give them some financial assistance that they might procure some. "Creative street people" is a particularly nice touch. The only thing that doesn't completely send us around the bend on this one is that it's almost certainly made up. —balk
