...about the jugglers who give street shows on the island on Brattle Street on weekend nights. They must be doing something right, because the crowds they attract are huge and enthusiastic--on the other hand, some Cantabridgeans object to the congestion in pedestrian traffic that results. Some others also resent the bullshit involved in this pale imitation of New Left "street entertainment for the people...
