Pictures? Or it didn't happen

But I have to ask, do I really want to see them?

Saturday my wife and I took advantage of the train extension to Niagara yesterday. Let me start by saying that from Whitby, it was one very lonnng ride. What made it interesting was the ride home. There was this young couple a few seats away from us who were ... let's say we used to do this in the back of cars as kids. It was just the four of us in the coach. My wife was disgusted. I was embarrassed. We eventually moved to another coach. It wasn't until we got to our car did we think we should have reported it. Let me say this. She was on his lap, facing the same direction as him and moving in a motion that wasn't in time with any swaying of the train. I don't even think they knew we were there. I even feel awkward writing to you but my burning question is how often does this happen? And are you sure the seats are sanitized every night?

  4. I imagine that would be quite nice, what with the rhythm of the train and all.

  6. Then there was the time cleaning staff found teenagers in a 3-way in the upper saloon of a DD at the NF garage. It seems the driver had forgotten about the end of trip inspection before leaving. And you thought I didn't sit up there because I banged my head on the ceiling.

  7. We'll have to keep all this in mind when CJ runs her next 'Name That Stain' competition...

  8. Look at it this way: People do everything else in public:
    Listen to music through headphones on the street (no-one seems to own a home stereo anymore).
    Most people carry all their worldly possessions with them everywhere they go.
    Go on the internet in public places ...not just at public libraries, but even if they own their own laptops and iPhones they still use Wi-Fi in commercial establishments.

    So, in a world where the concept of "privacy" has become extinct, what can you expect but for more previously "home-bound" activities to "hit the streets" as well?

  9. Some things should remain sacred.
