Local news clip from New York City in the 1980s (check out the hairstyles!) covering a feud between two street performers in Washington Square, each claiming to be the World's Best Storyteller.

At first I thought this was a parody, like a "This is Spinal Tap!" fake documentary. Nope. This is real life.

What a lot of agression in the tellings!
What a small number of stories in their repertoires!
What a increasing amount of time I'm spending on youtube. It's fast becoming my internet lounge when I'm pretending to do "real" work.

Thanks,

My man, T Berry, had a big old plastic bottle of water! I swig from a plastic bottle, too, but I did it first. It's all mine. I find it aesthetically
pleasing.
Sincerely--
Nate
The Real Greatest Storyteller Ever
