The 7:22 AM Train Show
If I wake up late, like I did today. I end up catching the 7:22 AM train. It has the most interesting "cast of characters", very similar to the typical daytime soap opera.
- SJSU Girl, she usually has a backpack and a bag or two and listens to her Walkman.
- Front-Seat Lady, she occupies two seats in the upper deck, one for her and the other for her bag and feet.
- Laptop Guy #1, he plays 3DO's Heroes of Might and Magic 3.
- Bellarmine Boys, a whole heap of guys from Bellarmine Prep take the train. One group has their daily card game in the bicycle car.
- IBM Twins, they don't look alike, but they wear the same IBM jacket every morning.
- Fife Guy, he plays the fife in the parking lot, at the station, on the train (softly) and walking to work. He knows many marching tunes.
- Walking Judge, he walks to his courtroom every morning.
- Red-Headed Girl, she works downtown and walks very fast.
- Purple Backpack Girl, she heads downtown and walks even faster.
- Skateboard Guy, he has a shaved head and a long skateboard.
- Laptop Guy #2, he watches various DVDs.
- Knitting Girl, she knits like crazy.
- Jansport Girl, her nose is in a book from the moment she sits down.
- Red-Headed Asian Girl, she is not to be confused with Red-Headed Girl and she dresses with style.
