Oh pleeeease stop running

Posted on August 30th, 2006 by The SUBWAYblogger in Live Blogging On the Subway, Scary People

Did you ever notice how people run to catch a train? Did you ever look at someone running and think to yourself, “Oh please stop running. That’s entirely too much jiggle this early in the morning.

It is a regular occurance, but it is so funny to watch. What is it about women over 30 that makes them look like mental patients when they run? And why is it that only the “most jiggly” people are doing all the running?

Listen lady, all the bacon grease is on an express train to your heart as we speak, so take it down a notch and wait for the next train. None of us already ON the train want to have to carry you off.

Another odd thing that caught my eye this morning was a woman climbing the strairs a if she were almost at the summit of a mountain. Just one step, then stop. Then another step, and stop. Obviously, this isn’t the first I’ve seen it happen because people do that all over the system. However, it made me think how dumb you have to be to put yourself through that. Who in their right mind would go into the subway knowing that the usage of stairs is a matter of life and death? Why not just stay above ground and take the bus? (Gasp)

Live from the subway, back to you in studio…

    I look at people running for the train and sometimes think, “Why are you running? The train is right there and it’s not leaving for another 2 minutes.”

    And yet they still run like the world is about to end and I still make it with lots of time to spare as I stroll.

    Thanks for these pointers. One thing I should also believe is that credit cards supplying a 0% rate of interest often bait consumers with zero interest rate, instant authorization and easy on-line balance transfers, nevertheless beware of the real factor that may void the 0% easy neighborhood annual percentage rate plus throw one out into the bad house fast.

    Thanks for enabling me to achieve new tips about computers. I also have the belief that certain of the best ways to keep your laptop in excellent condition is by using a hard plastic-type case, or perhaps shell, that fits over the top of one’s computer. Most of these protective gear tend to be model precise since they are made to fit perfectly on the natural housing. You can buy these directly from the seller, or via third party places if they are readily available for your laptop, however don’t assume all laptop will have a covering on the market. Just as before, thanks for your suggestions.

    One thing is that often one of the most common incentives for utilizing your credit cards is a cash-back or perhaps rebate present. Generally, you’ll have access to 1-5% back upon various acquisitions. Depending on the credit card, you may get 1% back on most expenses, and 5% back on acquisitions made on convenience stores, gas stations, grocery stores as well as ‘member merchants’.

    I have acquired some new points from your web site about personal computers. Another thing I’ve always imagined is that computers have become an item that each household must have for a lot of reasons. They provide convenient ways to organize households, pay bills, go shopping, study, tune in to music and also watch tv series. An innovative strategy to complete many of these tasks is with a laptop. These pcs are mobile ones, small, highly effective and mobile.

    Thanks for your useful post. As time passes, I have come to be able to understand that the actual symptoms of mesothelioma cancer are caused by a build up associated fluid involving the lining of your lung and the chest cavity. The condition may start within the chest spot and spread to other areas of the body. Other symptoms of pleural mesothelioma cancer include weight reduction, severe respiration trouble, temperature, difficulty ingesting, and bloating of the face and neck areas. It needs to be noted that some people having the disease never experience every serious signs and symptoms at all.

    Also I believe that mesothelioma cancer is a unusual form of melanoma that is commonly found in those people previously exposed to asbestos. Cancerous tissues form from the mesothelium, which is a shielding lining which covers most of the body’s body organs. These cells ordinarily form within the lining with the lungs, tummy, or the sac which encircles one’s heart. Thanks for giving your ideas.
