Necessity the Father of Invention



I was in the City today and came across two of these characters standing on the Avenue of the America in Midtown NYC.  This guy and on another corner was Mickey Mouse.  This seems to be a new occupation in NYC.  People dress up in costumes and stand on the street and you are suppose to pay them for taking their photo.  Mostly people like to take pictures of their kids with the character.  I couldn't think the name of this character, which I believe is from Seseme Street, so I asked him the name of his character and he said in a very think Latin accent "$1 Please."  Maybe because that was I had already taken this photo.  I didn't give it to him.  Maybe I should have.  I might have given it to him if he had been a little friendlier.
