interesting. in looking over my stats, it seems as if my site has made it to the NJ Transit corp comm (http://attransit/corpcomm/NewsClips/index.asp - don't even try it, it's an intranet thingy...)
welcome, NJ Transit... welcome... i must say that you are a necessary evil... oh, i shan't say "evil" i suppose... but come on. a fare hike? i may as well drive my damned car up to the city instead. right now i pay $291 alone for my monthly pass... and for that i get idiots who gnaw on chili dogs next to me, women who drop bags of kim chee on me, dopey 19 year old marines who blast their dvd players at 7:30am, toenail clipping men in suits, screaming babies, downed wires, switch problems, jackasses chatting incessantly on their cellphones - or better yet, on their Nextels *beep* hey dude, what're you doin'? *beep* at 8am, slow as molasses trains, conductors who think that the loudspeaker is their ticket to carnegie hall by constantly repeating in 3 different octaves "next stop, Middletown. NEXT stop, MID-dle-TOooown, Next stop will beeeeee MiddleTOWN!"
it's like, DUDE, shut up, i'm trying to effing sleep at 8:11pm so that i don't choke someone tomorrow morning when i am schlepping back on this bi-polar express at 7:20am.
granted - i have a couple of favourite conductors who i have no problems with... but Yappy MacFurkle and his Microphone of Doom really has got to clam up...
tonight... well, tonight i have to fork over my $291 for my pass...
