(Definitely not the) Magic Bus

Dateline Friday....

My buddy Robert had to take a bus to go see some friends of his so, I owing him about a million favors of the sort, volunteered to take him down the old bus station. Now Rob has never ridden the bus or done anything of the sort, so I knew it may be a challenge for him. He wound up wanting to take an earlier bus, so I dragged myself out of bed ON MY DAY OFF at 7:30, and got him over to the bus station over an hour early. We got the ticket exchanged just fine and then sat around waiting for the bus to arrive. As the station started getting busy, I noticed that people who came through after us were starting to line up outside for the bus. So I got Robert out there and put him in line. He was about 30th so he looked like he would make the first bus out. But then came the rude, stinky people who blew past the polite people waiting in line. People were cutting in line and circling around him like crazy because he wasn't being aggressive Okay, this isn't starting to look good. Robert was looking absolutely lost the whole time, by the way, but that is pretty much par for the course. The bus loaded and sure enough there were more riders than seats. Fortunately there were two other buses sitting there going to Tulsa. Unfortunately, those buses were pretty full with riders that were previously on the bus so they get preferential treatment. Thankfully they had one more bus was available, so Robert could make his connection. Robert got in line for that bus and was about tenth in line. But, sure enough, people are sneaking in front of him again. I positioned myself in between any other traffic and Robert so NO ONE could get past me without a BIG problem. I was so mad I was about to start throwing blows if anyone even tried getting psat me!! Finally, after inhaling 30 minutes of cigarette smoke and sweat smells, he hopped on the bus and my good deed was completely finished. It's late Saturday night and I still haven't heard from him, but I am assuming he made it because the people he was going to see, haven't called me to say he didn't arrive. Although he could be stuffed in some luggage compartment somwhere, couldn't he?!?!

For your funny bone....
