Two days is a row!  I'm on a roll!  Okay, sorry to all you commuters, but it's long been my feeling that only crazy people ride the public bus.  I saw this lady at the bus stop this morning.  From her uniform she always wears, I know she works at the hospital.  She's a good looking lady, too.  But this morning she was talking to herself.  And she seemed mad at something on the ground.  As soon as she looked up and saw me she was somewhat embarrassed.  At least she recognizes that she's crazy.

Time - 38:45 (avg. pace 8:52)

Splits - 8:55, 8:42, 8:50, 8:58, 3:20

Temp - 91°

I see to remember some saying about the pot calling the kettle black.

For the 2nd time we agree on something.

About that cigar in my hand...I never inhaled.

Good morning commuters-with your computers.

You think that is crazy

One of my favorite pastimes is to ride the Cache Valley Transit system. There's always at least one basket case on the bus.

I'm with you - I've seen way too many "unusual" people on public transportation. That said, I'm off to ride some public transportation myself today. :)

From The Quiet Pirate on Wed, Jun 15, 2011 at 15:23:02 from 174.110.223.249

I meet all of my future shipmates on public transportation. I see you looking at me with those judgmental eyes... arrggghhh.

From Burt on Wed, Jun 15, 2011 at 15:27:56 from 206.19.214.144

Chris - she seems so nice.

Predog - There is a certain amount of pleasure you get by watching crazy people.

Bye-wing - all you Dekker girls are crazy!

QP - Are every one of them worth their salt and crazy to boot?

From Dan on Wed, Jun 15, 2011 at 22:07:32 from 98.103.86.233

I like people who admit and know they are crazy.

From april27 on Thu, Jun 16, 2011 at 03:48:26 from 99.188.251.180

there are crazies and an unusual amount of smelly people on pub trans.

From flatlander on Thu, Jun 16, 2011 at 10:16:25 from 76.31.26.153

I used to ride the bus. I drive now so I can talk in private.

From Burt on Thu, Jun 16, 2011 at 11:02:59 from 72.223.90.79

Dan - I'm not crazy.

April - Do they smell like cheese?

Flat - We all need to be together alone sometimes.
