"Quote of the Day"

I was reading an article about Bobby Carlson's experience with amtrak.  it reminds me of my own adventures on public transit which you know i've been writing about for many years.  he said something in this article that made me lol.  he said:

"We'd rather eat shit covered razor blades then use the Greyhound again."

If you have been following me for a while you know that i feel exactly the same way about the greyhound!

Harry Chapin - Greyhound

I'll never forget this song as long as I live. I was evicted in early June 2003, because the landlord said I was lying about their dog attacking me. Robin (a guy) came to get my stuff and the dog attacked him. The owners weren't home to see that now I have a witness. Robin kicked the dog in the face.

I was forced to take the Greyhound to Indiana where I had promise of only 2 weeks shelter. I wasn't comfortable telling r.m. that all I needed was a place til payday early July, in Baltimore, so off i went on the greyhound to IN.

It was absolutely terrifying to be on the Greyhound, and I will never ever ride the Greyhound in my life again.
