Yeah, you know who was also turning left? That's right, me. Cough cough cough.

Your thoughts?

The buses are empty when they're in front of me, as the bus barn is right along my route to work. That's why I see so many of them.

No kids on board. Although a few minutes later I actually saw a car with a Baby on Board sign in the window - didn't those go out of style in the 80's?

Hey LOOK I'm making a comment on your blog! I know you are so excited. Don't rip on diesels too much... I drive one remember. Though my little plume of smoke is nothing compared with that bus. YUCK. But I do pity any convertible drivers when they get behind me. My windows stay up for a reason.

No, Katie, I like your diesel. It doesn't belch out blue smoke like those buses in the morning.

For what it's worth, and I know I've told you this before, I really like truck stops. The feeling of getting out and stretching after four hours behind the wheel. The large store/restaurant offering everything under the sun for sale. And yes, the faint diesel fumes of idling semitrucks on the tarmac.

It's all about context.

Cool. I'm not really keeping score, you know.

I know. I was just being silly.

I just got back from gee-tar class!! Honored that you remembered, Jim!

"The wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round, round and round, the wheels on the bus go round and round and spit exhaust on Stan."

That is a 2-chord song. Therefore, I can play it.

 

Okay, now it's your turn | Home
