What You'll See on Public Transit . . .

You never know what you will see, especially when it comes to public transit . . . yesterday, on my way home from work, there was a couple in their late thirties sitting across the aisle from me, in the very back row of the bus. The guy was dressed like a construction worker, and had a rather large lunch bag with him. This left me wondering, why did he need such a large lunch bag?

I soon found out.

During the approximately 40-minute bus ride home, he casually pulled out two cans of beer (the first was a Pabst, the second a Michelob), and proceeded to drink them.

At first I was appalled -- I had never seen anyone do this before! But then I realized that, deep down, I was jealous. Think about it . . . how freakin' great would it be to be able to enjoy a cocktail on your bus or subway ride home after a long work week?!

If they made all the beverages have a lid, and limited the amount you could purchase, perhaps the profit margin would be enough to increase mass transportation revenues?!?!
