What will you or won’t you touch in the subway? If you ask me, nothing unless I have to.
Sometimes, you’re forced into a crowd of people where you have to hold onto a rail or something while the train is moving. Otherwise, this BlackBerry is the only thing my hands will touch for [...]

One for the Transit Geeks

Posted on July 16th, 2007 by The SUBWAYblogger in Contribution

Here’s one for fellow transit geeks. If you’re into all things transit related, this daily newsletter might be something right up your alley.
Bernie Wagenblast’s Transportation Communications Newsletter is a little newsletter publication that sends out links to transit related articles of the day from all over the country. It’s not just NYC, but [...]

People are all over Mayor Bloomberg’s Congestion Pricing plan. The opponents keep calling it a tax, because the word “tax” sounds evil. In reality, it’s a toll. Sure, there’s an argument to be made about tolls really just being taxes, but let’s call it what it is. It’s a toll for [...]

I’m glad to see that Budweiser Select has finally gotten back to its advertising roots. The latest campaign features a hot chick in a bikini, on the beach, holding a Select. The slogan underneath reads, “Step up to Select.”

Ok, so can we discuss how f-ed up the past couple days of subway ridership have been?

Seriously?  Just PG-14?
This, according to a little tool on this website.   BRN earned and impressive NC-17 rating.  At least we now have something to aspire to.

Turns out, there’s a lot of other geeks out there like SUBWAYblogger that listen to a variety of podcasts instead of music on their iPods.
I have a ton of music on my iPod, but I prefer to listen to [...]

Sudoku

Posted on July 10th, 2007 by The SUBWAYblogger in Live Blogging On the Subway

I don’t even know if I’m spelling it correctly…sudoku. Do you “soduko” on your way to work? Today it’s what the crossword was 10 years ago.
In either case, I can’t think of anything more stressful to do at any time. I just don’t get what satisfaction a person gets from completing one.
Just [...]
