Cutting Student MetroCards: Vote Delayed
Ugh. Just get it over with already so we can go on with our lives realizing that this is not the end of the world. This is a followup to SUBWAYblogger’s recent post on this subject that became quite the source of debate. The vote to cut the program has been delayed. However, there are [...]

The kids are out! Dressed up and ready to go. There’s a lot of cute little tikes out, so that’s not bad. Unfortunately, there’s the teens. I find it funny when 15 year olds dress up as school girls. It’s sort of missing the irony you find when an adult dresses as a school girl. [...]

Boo
Happy dress like a slut day…I mean…Halloween. So it is Tuesday and Halloween. This past weekend, there were tons of people in the subway system dressed up. So I don’t anticipate a lot of that today.

Apparently, they are now being told to specifically mention certain tourist attractions near stops.

They are sitting across from each other reviewing their party last night. Unfortunately, it is standing room only on this train. So they are talking through the [...]

On the LIRR
I’m sitting on the Penn Station bound LIRR…as promised this time! I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: I love the subway, but these new LIRR cars are nice! The subway will always be #1, but I still dream of the day when the subway will be this nice. The difference is like [...]

Back in the saddle again
It feels good! Back in the regular morning routine. The smell of car exhaust, and urine in the subway. Ahhh yes…how I missedbyou. But seriously, I am glad to be back. Anway, this morning takes me out to Long Island after a quick pit stop at the office. Last week, I built everyone’s hopes up [...]
