Lets start a new page! (soooo close)

Larks, well... I honestly think some people over do it on this holiday. This is a holiday where we honor our founding fathers, not drink 'till we can't drink no more. I remember the days when we would go down to the different historical places on the 4th and take what this country really is. And did the Confederacy have a holiday like the 4th, and if they do is it still celebrated?

Muck, you mean bendy buses? Remindes me of those good 'ol Top Gear days.....

Drink? I'm not allowed to drink legaly

And yes every state has their own Confederate day holliday ours was Apr 26th.

Muck: yes, there are a few bendy buses.

Australia Day is the 26th of January, even though we became a nation on the 1st of January. Does anyone who is not an Australian know why?

They're called "articulated buses", by the way.

Cookies are still awsome, IE still won't let me post comments on the STEX, and the world is still a big pile of fail....

Sure, here's one from London:

In other news, I'm listening to Disney music. Some of their songs are quite good  - for example, "Colours of the Wind" from Pocahontas and "What's This?" from The Nightmare Before Christmas. I also rather like "Reflection" from Mulan.

[tjh876 31]

6609 Well, if you haven't seen it, here is a video on the best bus for London, and yes, it is a Top Gear video,

is a link to it

So as not to interfere with New Year's Day?

That video was monstrously entertaining, Tommy.

"Reflection" isn't from Mulan, it's a Christina Aguilera song that Disney reworked a few of the lyrics of for the movie.

6612. Hey! We've got those all over Chicago!

Cleveland and Akron only have single length buses, but at least they have back, front, and middle entrance/exits (on certain routes - others only have a front entrance)

[Duke87 1,070]

(6614)

New York City has articulated buses. Stamford does not.

[joshriddle 29]

6615

What is an articulated bus?

[617squad 52]

6616

Fail.....

[Vahr 341]

6617

Maybe take a look up the page?

[Duke87 1,070]

(6618)

You know what's fun? Riding in the articulator in the middle of one of those things. Everything around you moves!

[Muck308 55]

Pittsburgh has them, or at least they did. I never see any these days, nor do I see them at the bus garage which I pass regularly. I've never ridden in one. Only regular buses.

If you get BBC America, of if you get BBC, they are on once a week, every monday night at 9pm for me, and its always worth watching, and there are much better videos.

is one of my favorite

Minneapolis has those buses, too.

[Muck308 55]

6622

That was a good one too, Tommy. But what's the deal with the high visibility jackets? You don't have to adorn one just to drive. Was this video assuming the car was broken down on the tracks? In which case the driver would have to wear one if outside a disabled vehicle? 

[Duke87 1,070]

(6623)

We don't get BBC, but we do get BBC World News.

Me thinks BL stole Chptrk's avatar

[astronelson 339]

6625.

Isn't methinks usually written as one word?

[Chptrk 86]

6626.

Me thinks Vincey better take good care of my old avatar. I loved him very very much!

[Larks2242 251]

6627.

Me thinks he will.

[Vahr 341]

6628

Of course I'll take care of him

And larks, I'm merely "borrowing" him since otherwise I would have to use Mikitty's ? mark. With pink hearts. Isn't that boring?! I mean really. A big red ? mark on a black background. Not avatar material. 

[astronelson 339]

Edd from Ed, Edd 'n Eddy looks so cute in mine. He's even cuter in the full picture version, which is here.

And yes, that is a he. Many of my avatars seem to skate the thin line where it's hard to tell.

The entire thing was meant to be somewhat of a joke/rofl thing (with some meaning of safety), like why Jermey has 2 hard hats in his head, the jacket was brought in most likely because it would make the old guy in the begining who stopped on the tracks that he did something "not safe". If you understand the character Jermey is, you would know why this was kinda pointless, but funny. This is a 3 part video, but its worth watching it, you'll get the character of Jermey.
