Today's commute...

Riding the L home tonight with two kids in tow (no stroller) during rush hour, at least three people offered me their seat. Later another dad, also with two small children, one in stroller, was immediately offered a seat too.

Thank you Purple Line riders from the both of us.

There was a ranter on the car. At first you couldn't tell if he was talking on the phone but he kept repeating "had a dream and the foot came off cleanly", so we all knew.

Ranters bring out the solidarity of all the other commuters.
