Like, every 1,000th rider on the metro is forced into a closet with Newt Gingrich or something<BR/><BR/>The NYC Subway however, is like your favorite dive bar. Without the grime, it just wouldn't be the same. Likewise, the DC Subway is like a midtown martini bar. Sometimes it's so glammed up that it's obtrusive.Jonny Epichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12698228057860533385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8315221845850712241.post-61606420548991944492008-06-04T18:39:00.000-04:002008-06-04T18:39:00.000-04:00you two are so cool having a conversation on this ...you two are so cool having a conversation on this awesome blog. and yes it is a good try, a new car is probably crazy expensive. they're probably just trying to fix the old ones so they can keep running. but i don't know, i just like being a hater. and no air still sucks and will always suck. now "damaged" that's a good song. it's a lil old by now but you can still make it big again.sammy bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15505381435645795607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8315221845850712241.post-51556067758090623252008-06-04T16:24:00.000-04:002008-06-04T16:24:00.000-04:00you should listen to Johnny Cash's version of One....you should listen to Johnny Cash's version of One...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16071941102766247878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8315221845850712241.post-84089573327077082882008-06-04T16:21:00.000-04:002008-06-04T16:21:00.000-04:00Thanks, Patrick D.

And don't even get me started on salary because I'm still bitter over the last MTA strike. <BR/><BR/>And, I may just keep "No Air" around because of your dislike of the song. Tell me you love it and maybe I'll pick a new one.Subway Galhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15664924638273229977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8315221845850712241.post-52666160531496377432008-06-04T16:09:00.000-04:002008-06-04T16:09:00.000-04:00I share those frustrations - the city is trapped b...I share those frustrations - the city is trapped because it can't afford to shut down entire lines to redo them without causing nightmares - sadly I think it will get worse...song still lameAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16071941102766247878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8315221845850712241.post-23175413177973604762008-06-04T16:00:00.000-04:002008-06-04T16:00:00.000-04:00just because i'm a hater i'll comment and tell you...just because i'm a hater i'll comment and tell you that the fare increases are probably necessary because of aging machinery and mandatory salary and benefits increases. but if you're unhappy with the subway why don't you start a new blog called thoughts in an expensive taxi or in an even more expensive parking lot....pick a new song loser.sammy bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15505381435645795607noreply@blogger.com
