numero uno

the number 1 bus line - cutting calgary in half north-south (more or less) has the most varied sampling of the population base of any bus route in town. as far as i know.

mostly the usual suspects; blue collar types, uber-wealthy yuppies - the ones too cheap to pay for parking, people with way too many children; dudes at the back swilling vodka at 5pm; plus the assorted mass of over-aggressive and cussing teenagers. pretty much everyone gets along which is fairly amazing within itself. oh i forgot, also, very small children or babies shrieking, "i need chocolate", for the entire ride. the smells can be pretty mind-altering at times as well.

i cant wait until its bike riding weather.
