Raise your hand if you were on a train today.

I spent an hour on a train just to get to a city for the sole purpose of reading a book that I've owned for over a year. The book refused to be read in the suburbs; it simply demanded to be read in a city.

1. Raises hand...

20 minutes into the city, 30 back home, lots of rows of knitting done. I love knitting on the train, it makes the time pass so quickly. :)

:hi:

2. Yo

Took a 40 minute train ride to work this morning, as opposed to my usual 10 minute ride. However, for the next 3 weeks I'll be driving a company vehicle (my early ride this morning was to get to my office to pick up said vehicle).

3. Yup. LA subway from Hollywood to downtown for jury duty.

Most boringest day of my life. :boring:

The train was the highlight!

4. What book?

:shrug:

5. Americus, Book I.

It's the kind of book that demands to be read in a place with lots of people thinking and talking and doing stuff.

6. I spent two hours today, looking at trains and electric trolly photos

That should count for something.

This 1938 photo was taken about two hundred yards from the home I grew up in. The rail system supported a freight line and an electric commuter rail system until WWII when it was junked for buses. Damn you, Firestone and General motors.

12. It was 2 Live Crew that introduced me to it

I used to listen to 'me so horny' up the road with this Korean kid who had the only Amiga within 15 blocks. We'd sit there, stunned, at how bad the lyrics were. And learned them by heart.

Much like Cartman would.

8. Does the Montreal Metro count?

Then yes. Twice.

9. Me, but I live in NYC.

I'm always on a train.

:D

10. No train today.

This week my reading material on the bus to and from work has been the Amtrak schedule.

I'm thinking of traveling September or October.

13. I was on a subway train twice today.

Like Starbucks Anarchis, I live in NYC. Trains are an everyday thing. :shrug:

14. I did the train thing today -- twice

Lots of walking, too. Same as every day. Don't drill for me.
