| THE GREYHOUND REPORT |
| APRIL 20, 2006 |
| I periodically have to ride the Greyhound Bus to get from point to point. As a special to the Cell Phone Chronicles I introduce The Greyhound Report. |
| 5:45am � Ask any person who travels by bus as often as I do and they�ll agree that it�s always interesting. Today�s trip is from Omaha to Davenport and will take about 6-hours. 2 hours longer than it would by car, but with current gas prices at $2.89/gallon, it costs about the same. The bus isn�t too crowded, which is always good. In front of me are some people already sleeping & behind me are some Chinese newlyweds. I think they are anyways, why else would they be making out this early in the morning? Some guy sitting in the back wreaks of alcohol. I thought about sitting in front of him but the tattoos on his neck scared the hell out of me. Time to sleep. |

| 11:00am � About an hour left and it�s been pretty uneventful. It�s been hard to sleep though. The Chinese newlyweds laughed and giggled the entire time. Except of course when they were sleeping or tongue-wrestling. Some guy who�s sitting in front of me now has been snoring a little and smells really bad. I hope standing outside during our 20-minute break at the truck stop will freshen his ass up a little bit. I just tried talking the driver into dropping me off at my hotel but he wouldn�t. Looks like I have to get a cab. Today could have been a lot worse though. My next bus trip will be about 26 hours roundtrip. My back hurts just thinking about it. |
