Rainy days and Mondays always get me down
Yesterday I acquired a copy of Diablo II with a cracked play disc and spent many, many hours trying to get the game to work with the help of the internet, downloading cracks and patches like nobody's business. That same day I bought a turntable, but not an amplifier. I tried to get that thing to work all day too. It was a day full of failure and frustration, until about 3:30 a.m. this morning when I finally figured out Diablo II and realized that I could use a mixer as an amplifier. Thanks to my perseverance I woke this morning and slew many rogues with magic Amazonian arrows and enjoyed a cup of coffee to a relaxing Carpenters album... god, I'm awesome.

How Driving Cambus Is Like Sex
I recently discovered a blog filled with Cambussers' stories of the road. It is goddamn hilarious. Although, some of it is geared toward a very narrow audience. I found a list of reasons why bus driving is like sex. I have omitted the ones that are funny only to a Cambusser (with the exception of just a few I couldn't do without), or just straight up aren't funny:
1. I’m tired afterwards
2. Women make phone calls complaining about my performance

4. People wave at me when they see me doing it
6. I do it several times a day
7. You’re not allowed to finish early
8. No one will look me in the eye when they get off
9. No entry allowed in the back door

13. I dread it all day but once I start it’s not that bad
14. You have to be careful when pulling out of the barn
15. Doing the job is nice, but it’s the performance evaluations I could do without

30. When it starts to smell funny, I call a mechanic
31. You should always inspect before starting, but who does that anyway?

42. After six hours you need a break
60. Girls always hate it when you make them late
*Butch is a near-retirement mechanic who is short, quite round, grumpy, and... named Butch.
** "clean up" is where all the buses get washed and shit.

Bless the Fall
Who are these guys?
Who are these guys?
Why are they so hilarious to look at?
And what's with the "I wanna cornhole you" look from the blonde guy?
