 Posted: Mon Oct 27, 2003 11:11 am Post subject: Another good use for a bus |
 |
|
I have been known to eat a quick lunch at work and go out to
the parking lot and take a power nap in my car. You know, kick
the seat back, set my watch to remind me when to go back to work,
and relax for a good 20 - 30 minutes. Possibly even fall asleep.
I would like to bring my bus to work, park it way out in the back
of the parking lot and give it a go. The only problem would be people checking out bus looking through the windows.
I'm sure somebody has done this already. Today conditions
were perfect. A gloomy, chili monday. |

Well haven't we all gotten politically correct (and boring) in the past few years?
The stories my old bus could tell! |

Sounds like now we'll read about what we all thought we were going to read in the thread "Keeping the heat in the bus". 
"Really Baby, we did run out of gas."

Curtains are good. I know of a few busses that have curtains in the rear window and across behind the front seats. When you want total privacy.
And Randy: those stories are why we have the "private message" option. |

I sold a Westfalia to a very cute little gay girl last year. She says she loves to camp in it, but people are always peeking in the windows. The problem is so bad that she and her equally cute friend have to sleep upstairs in the pop-top to have any privacy. Moral of the story is: if you are ugly enough maybe people will leave you alone.
