Never a dull moment
No siree ... not in San Francisco - especially not while riding the bus to work this morning!
Case in point: One particular stop was at Turk and Hyde - right in the heart of the Tenderloin area. Great neighborhood - if you're looking for a crackwhore, or like to watch people dealing with their DTs and coming down from crystal and smack highs.
Anyways, the bus stops, and a good number of people get off. While the back door is splayed wide open, one of the more colorful people walks up to the doors and shouts "Everybody put your hands up and give me $29.00!". Then he walks off and laughs.
I dunno ... kind of hard to put credence in the threats of someone whose weapons of choice are a carton of whole milk and a Hostess Honey Bun.
