Stranger and Stranger
Jun. 13th, 2008 02:12 pmToronto has on odd culture when it comes to public transit. We don't talk about people jumping in front of subway trains.
Heck, just this morning I was over at Eglinton station and there was chaos on the platform. Now, this isn't uncommon, but a train stopped only halfway across the platform IS. Figured it was some sort of power outage. Not too uncommon on the TTC during the summer. The fuse boxes act up in the heat.
Now, what was strange was when a body slid out from under the train, but I figured that it was some TTC maintenance guy. They're always running around the tunnels during the morning rush. That or it was the luckiest man, well, EVER.
He was heading to Davisville, last I saw.
Some idiot was yapping about a news report from the states about some disease or whatever. The news is what's caused oil prices to spike up and down, so I'm taking anything with a grain of salt. And, with the news in Toronto, I doubt we'll hear any more details.
Coverage of the Euro Cup cut out at random at lunch hour. The bar couldn't get the signal back. That kinda sucked.
