Under ordinary circumstances I would have presumed the author of this missive to sport a bat or two in his belfry. But thanks to the MTA’s sterling idea to suspend both G and 7 train service this weekend my journey to and from Manhattan this evening was anything but ordinary. I’ll leave it your imagination, dear readers, to figure out who your truly thinks has a screw loose.

Crosstown Local Photo Du Jour: Remember?
This item comes from the camera of Dale Harris and hails from the Myrtle – Willoughby stop of the MTA’s price and joy: the G train. Here’s to two more days of shuttle bus fun!

When you think about it, the Crosstown Local is not unlike Snuffleupagus: sure, Big Bird claims he exists but he’s never to be found. Maybe the GG is the MTA’s imaginary friend?

It would appear not everyone was displeased with shuttle buses replacing the G train this dreary Sunday afternoon.
2:25 p.m.
Then again, I suspect efficient mass transit was not a priority for this young couple.

Have you ever wondered why they say a picture is worth a thousand words? If so, here you go:
As a matter of fact Metropolitan Transit Authority, it IS cold. This is part of the reason waiting for the shuttle buses which you, in your infinite wisdom, have pressed into service for four consecutive weekends in a row.
In the dead of winter.
SUCKS.

I have noticed that these posters for “Blue Mountain State” have elicited a great deal of feedback from my fellow G train patrons. All negative. This one may very well be the best of the lot. Thanks for passing this along to me, Jacqueline!
