Flight 674 from Uptown to Downtown

[ironymaiden]

Today's bus driver is on the PA nonstop. He has a song or pop culture reference for every stop, and lists off key landmarks like the KFC/Taco Bell.*
Occasionally a wave of giggles rolls through the bus as he riffs on things like Gilligan's Island.



*people are *always* looking for that KFC. I can't figure out if it's the food or a drug dealer hangout. Probably both.

And then after I posted this he started singing Al Green and the older white guy behind me started singing along. And then so did I.

you make me feel so brand new...

also, as my train was pulling up, a little girl squeed "train! Train! Train!"

I couldn't agree more.

this morning I was thinking "I haven't seen any posts from irony maiden in a long time" and then I discovered that I wasn't subscribed to your journal for some reason. Grr! Also, this sounds like the best bus driver ever :)

I take flight 675. I wonder if we've had the same driver. On the E line, people don't giggle.

[ironymaiden]

Yup, sounds like the same guy. I don't think I've ever taken the E. It runs up Aurora, right?
I'm sure there are more random tourists riding between Seattle Center and the Market.

[sistawendy]

Yes, the E goes up and down Aurora. It's the sketchiest, skeeviest, skankiest, surliest bus route in the north end.
