I have a whole slew of bus stories. One involved some tragic girl who wouldn't leave me alone until I gave her my phone number. Not being too smart or clever, I finally broke down and gave it to her. She then proceded to call me for the next six months telling me about her cat and her never ending quest to find a job that would pay her eight dollars and hour. I wasn't mean or anything about it, it was just a little annoying and somewhat bizarre. You gotta be weary about bus girls... you never know if they're going to be nice or psychotic. The buses on the west side of Los Angeles are a bit frightning. There's the red buses, MTA, which are pretty damn scary and cost $1.35 (?) and then there are the blue buses, aptly named 'The Big Blue Bus', which are somewhat nicer and only cost 50 cents, and laslty there are the green buses, Culver City's, are really scary and a ride goes for 65 cents or so. Why am I giving people the lowdown on buses? I do not know. The most humorous thing about LA buses is that they have these adverts inside that start out "ATTENTION HEROIN AND METH ADDICTS..." Kind of gives you an idea as to who the target passanger is... scary. I've sat by many a person on the bus who has an odd itch in their nose that they can't seem to get rid of. hmm... I had to start riding the bus when i crashed my car this past winter. Needless to say I had a nice little B+S mixed tape of songs that mention the word 'bus' to keep me occupied. Ok, I'm boring myself, so I will be quiet. OH! And let me cast a belated vote for one Miss Beth Arzy on the whole list crush thing. CRUSH indeed. : ) -Kelly Ryan McGuire +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
