I am beginning to get........

[gracia143]

......curvature of the spine from getting into, and out of, jeepneys!!!!

Most of the time though, I ride my big, red, throbbing chopper!!

For a change Al, why don't you sit on top of the jeepney? I used to travel that way when I was younger.

But Grace, I am not younger any more!!!

I mean, I am younger than my dad, or William Shakespeare or John the Baptist. But I am not younger than my children, or YOU!!! In fact, I am BLOODY old now, which upsets me somewhat!!

However, I am A LOT younger than most of the jeepneys that miraculously trundle their way through Cebu City! Some of them must have been built in the 19th century I am sure!!!

Also, when a jeepney is full, there is somehow room for another 20 people, just by the guy who rides on the back moving along the outside, hitting everyone and shouting, 'Eeey!!!!' One of these days I will smack one of those guys - and when I smack, I smack HARD!!! That will probably mean I shall end up in jail, in a cell with millions of cockroaches!! (A bit like my apartment really!!)

I am waffling!! Time for another San Mig. and then bed - work tomorrow - no rest for the wicked!!! (What a silly expression!! Anybody know from whence it came?)
