Two Pixar guys: If a part of a scene needs to be redone, the whole scene needs to be redone. The guy with the soul patch got a cool promotional Zippo lighter; he doesn't smoke but he wants to be able to flip it open and light it with one hand. (Unless you have lobster claws, that's totally easy to do, no?) If you have a bad movie like "Killer Clowns from Outer Space" then why even try to make it better? If the movie is worth caring about, then it's worth the effort to make it better. The other Pixar guy explains "Shakes the Clown" to Soul Patch at length. Everyone else on the bus eavesdropps curiously with faint smirks.
Two National Holistic Institute guys: Ponytail Pretty Boy who can't stop caressing his Anthony Kiedis-like mane finally decides to acknowledge his schoolmate, a Jock-Like Guy plugged into his iPod with a "Hey! What's up?!" AFTER the 45th Street stop, even though they've been on the shuttle since MacArthur BART. Info about holiday plans exchanged. PPB asks J-LG about his judo class in "El Cerrito or whatever" to create an opening for him to bring up, somewhat smugly, his own black belt test coming up. The guys in his class perked up when they found out he studies massage at NHI. PPB "popped" his ankle, but it's ok because his buddy who does accupuncture is fixing it. PPB and J-LG demonstrate the universal gesture for a popped ankle, which is putting a hand on the thigh and groaning. PPB continues to drop knowledge about martial arts technique with a thinly disguised need to show off, perhaps to compensate for all the previous hair caressing?
A question to you readers: what do you think of people who bring bikes on the Emery Go Round? Isn't EGR's service area a bikeable distance from MacArthur (or Ashby) BART? What's the point of bringing a bicycle if one doesn't ride it? Plus, the shuttles have no bike racks so it takes up tons of space on board.
