Last Night On the LIRR

I love train travel! The Long Island Railroad provides some interesting illustrations in life. On the train into Flushing last evening I overheard a young man talking on his cell phone to a friend. He was heading into the city to meet this young lady he had met a few weeks ago in New Jersey. They were having their first date. All the arrangements were made. His mom said to him as he left, “Suppose she doesn’t show up?” He said to his friend, “Way to build up my confidence, Mom!”
