Seattle Bus Adventures

Well two in one day, I am truly proud of myself. I am in the process of trying to be more productive. Although, I bet many may find this not very productive.

For those of you who have gotten to work via something other than driving alone to work at least two times since Oct 8th check out Wheel Options you have a chance to win stuff like vacations to Moab! I know announcing this to you all will ultimately lower my chances of winning albeit not by much. Good thing I am not selfish.

Now for my story of my most recent bus occurrence:
I was coming home tonight from work which is currently over in West Seattle. I was on the #2 and decide to claim my throne at the back of the bus. I was sitting on one side of the back seat and another man was sitting on the other. Shortly after sitting down the other man turned himself in a very obvious and sketchy looking way as if to hide something. He then turned back to the front although hunched forward. Well me being a humane being and all I was a bit curious so I happened to look over at him to see what he was doing(counting about 200 dollars worth of twentys) not a lot of money really. Well to make a long story short, he noticed that I saw him counting his millions and needless to say some words were had.
Strange man on bus says:
"Whatca you in my buisness for man"
I say:
"I am not you were just looking a little sketchy"
SMOBS:
"I wont call my boys, you seem alright"
I say:
"No need to call anyone, were cool"

Yada Yada Yada

SMOBS:
"Ah man you are from Wisconsin, I have got this brewers hat that I thought was a mariners hat but it is really cool, you ride this bus often I will give it to you. It will have to wait till summer, later."

END STORY

It was just weird, although i have seen much more interesting stuff on the 358 that runs on Aurora Ave. Maybe for another time.

INTERESTING SIDE NOTE: My first experience with Seattle was back in 2002 while I was courting the bits. I arrived a day early and was taking a Seattle bus from the airport to west seattle to meet timo bit's brother. the bus had to pull over because a huge fight broke out punches, blood, cops the whole works.

PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION ROCKS
