Anyway, I Ain't Got No Place Else To Go

Well, the Great Bus Strike of 2004 has ended. Today, the Twin Cities' Metro Transit buses were back on the road belching black exhaust, clogging up traffic and generally being a nuisance to the 90% of the population that has never and will never ride one anywhere.

I'd like to commemorate the blessed event with just one more of the many "Rider Stories" featured in last week's City Pages.

John, a 42 year old "salesperson", waxes poetic about the joys of riding the bus:

It's safer than driving, especially in winter/rain, or when I'm drunk.

There you have it. Metro Transit...the Twin Cities' leader in transporting drunks since 1925.
