Where in the World Isn't Bob Saget?

@Andrew C are you planning on watching Survivor again tonight? I know I'm pumped!

Yep! Maybe not live but it will be recorded at least.

 

[Lucky]

I'd watch Survivor but there's a discrepancy with the Caps game.

The train operator keeps saying we're stopped because of a "discrepancy" a few stations down the track. He thinks that's a synonym for "problem" or "incident."

Oh, don't even get me started on "explanations" the train men attempt to roll over the passengers--like we're THAT stupid??!!! Apparently, it's also an issue on the train lines you ride as well.

Haha. You fancy people in your northeastern cities with your trains.

Oh yah right . . . nothing like being crammed in like sardines with the rest of the great unwashed public! Believe me, I'm not talking First Class here!

The excuse I get every week is: "There are signal problems up ahead."

I once took a train from Manhattan to New Jersey....

So you've been pushed by a mob down a narrow staircase in Penn Station too? There is never a time where people are not panicking for the platform the second they announce the track.

The following is a distinctly Canadian word that keeps popping up on my FB page. Who knows what it means? Without peeking.

And the word is ... bonspiel.

   A Bonspiel is a curling tournament, consisting of several games, often held on a weekend.

Sometimes, the train men don't coordinate their excuses. When I got on a late arrival train this morning, the conductor at the back of the train told all of us (while we were boarding) that the train was late because the trains were delayed overnight, pulling into the start of the (route) line. Hence, they didn't have enough trains to start the morning and were cancelling some of the runs. Okaaayyyy . . . then a few stops down the track, another train man from the front of the train got on the PA system and apologized for the delay of our train this morning, citing an engine malfunction. So, which is it? Night crew drivers didn't get enough trains up at the start of the line, OR -- the (one) train I happened to be on was late because of an engine malfunction?

You see?? You see?? They lie to us all the time!!

I've found my newest Sia song that I love. Hew "new" one - "Alive".

And for the inquiring minds (which are probably few)...

Do they supply the curling irons, or are you allowed to bring your own? Is the tournament open to both sexes?
