Hello. And Happy New Year. Let’s hope that this year is a more prosperous and fortunate one.
If you are dependent on Metro, get ready to dig in your wallet a little deeper. Metrobus/rail has jacked up the fares on us!
- If you have a Smartrip pass, the bus fare is still $1.25, but if you are using cash it is $1.35. Paper transfers will be eliminated in 2009. (No more transfers!)
- Catching the Metro during peak hours is $1.65 to $4.00!
- For other info go to: metroopensdoors.com.
With all this money being spent there had better be buses and trains on time, Metro employees with decent behavior, professional conduct, and nice attitudes, especially those damm bus drivers.
The 2008 Election Cycle
I’m not surprised that Obama and Huckabee won the Iowa Caucus.
I’m not endorsing anyone. No one from either campaign or party has contacted me. No one gives a f— about this blog or its author. So why should I give my vote?
That’s right. I’ve heard it all before. Why should I bother to vote? My vote does not count.
In the whole scheme of things, our votes really don’t count.
The Future of This Blog
I still have not changed my decision. Unless I see some mainstream interest, or money sponsoring this blog, I’m shutting it down in April or March.
So, Happy New Year – Prospero Nuevo Ano
