I really like being in one train as it's passing another heading the same direction. I guess it has something to do with moving past something slowly, yet knowing that you're going much faster than it seems. That and the give and take, sometimes you're going faster than the other train, sometimes they're going faster than you, and sometimes you're going the same speed. It makes me think of the NYC subway, because that's really the only 4-track I rode when I was younger and more impressionable. The effect just isn't the same between the El and the subway surface, and there just isn't enough train density on the Main Line to see it often (but I did today - at one point the local was going faster than the express...sigh).

In other news, I now have business cards.

I remember flirting with a girl somewhat as our trains rode along side by side on the BSL for a bit, until the express pulled ahead after the first few stops. It was quite enjoyable.

You've seen the Dockers commercial, right?

Supposedly, it's available here (http://www.us.dockers.com/fal05a/dockers/home/d_home.jsp), but that appears to be broken. Here's (http://www.sfist.com/archives/2005/09/29/sfist_raves_that_dockers_commercial.php) a blog post about it.

Yeah, though I didn't get off. No woman is worth throwing off my schedule for.

You just haven't found the right one, yet...

Maybe so, Adam. Maybe so. Maybe...it's been you all along.

No. But it need not be a woman for me to get off the train for. I suppose I should have been broader in my initial post.
