Empty Bus

As frequent readers will remember, I ride the bus to work, and every so often there is a post called "Today on the Bus." Usually this is where I write about some of the more colorful Portlanders I have met over the years, or more accurately I try not to meet. Today something happened that is very rare, I was the only person on the bus. This has happened before for a stop or two, but today I was the only person on the bus for almost half the ride and when I got off the bus driver was all alone. I felt a little sad for him.
