TRAIN UPDATE


I'm now not sure which is worse: train-mates with intestinal issues (see 11/14 post) OR train-mates that forgot to bathe. What's amazing to me is...can you really be a fashionably dressed, clean-cut person and NOT shower?!? Can you really "just forget" to bathe?

Sure wish I had a nose plug, cotton ball, chewing gum, Vics salve, clothespin, surgical mask...anything!

I feel for you PoMonkey. Many a time when seated on an airplane my inner voice is willing people away from the seat next to me. Please don't sit here, please don't sit here, please don't sit here...crap they sat here. Lucky for me I generally have a stopped up noise anyway, which in some cases helps, and in some cases not. Maybe you should het a Christmas Tree air freshner made for the rear view mirror and hang around your neck. Better yet, their neck.

Miss you... sorry to hear about some of your adventures on the Metra...ahhh the fun of city life! Perhaps you should get a sign to put around YOUR neck that says..."Don't sit next to me unless you have showered today and have no intestinal issues!"

O Boy! What a joy the train ride can be. What not carry a can of air freshner with you, and use it as needed for all of the problems you have "smelled"! It is indeed hard to believe that people don't shower and use the bathroom as they should! O yes, have a very happy Thanksgiving Holiday! Hope the smells of food are pleasing to you over the next several days.
