Sleeps Like an Angel

Posted on November 5, 2018 by

Rowdiness on the Bus

Posted on June 26, 2018 by

Today’s commute was nothing if not dramatic.  Somewhere in the last half, a fight broke out.  One gentleman wanted another sleepy gentleman to remove his bag because it was taking up a window seat.  I don’t think he was asking … Continue reading →
