Amtrak Fixes Part One

-

THIS IS TOO FAST AMTRAK!

Unless you buy a ticket on the Acela no one should have to travel at this CLEARLY NOT DESIGNED FOR THIS SPEED!

The train was rattling A TAD! Enough to shake the wings off a P-38 Lightning.

90

ABOVE 90 IT FEELS UNCOMFORTABLY CLOSE TO COMING OFF THE TRACKS. SOMETHING I DON'T WANT TO DO AT 112 MPH.

The caboose officer possibly announcer of the eastbound Pennslyvanian August 2nd (after Harrisburg crew) deserves a promotion.

For "coolness above and beyond the call of duty".

1. When you are changing engines PLUG THE CARS INTO THE STATION POWER!

A big cable? Can't be too hard.

It was unconscionably hot waiting for the new engine getting hooked on.

2. Free slushy machines in every car. Lots of flavors.

3. Refuel all the trains at the stations. We were just stopped west of Harrisburg to get gas.

4. Internet Everywhere: Starlink it whatever works. Six satellite units per car.

5. Arm rests? What happened to those between seats? I feel like the older fashioned "4-6 person compartments" were more fun for coach.

A seat-to-overhead "bundling board" that can rise up would be even better. Turns a coach seat into a private compartment easily.

6. Maybe, you tell me Lady Amtrakers, do you want food and beverage cart service? 

I enjoy bobbing and weaving up to the Cafe Car but others might like "hotdogs! peanuts! cold beer! cotton candy!" coming down the aisle.

I know a maintenance guy in Pittsburgh who'd be perfect for the job and probably enjoy it too.

I swear the conductor said "no alcohol" but the Cafe Car serves it and I expect to partake later but in the meantime wtf?

This isn't Yankee Stadium. Why is our Federal rail service enforcing a monopoly?

"Got a case bring a case". Maybe there should be. Yeah...

7. There's a "Quiet Car". There will be a "18+ Party Car" too.

Where everyone can do anything that doesn't derail the train or spill over into another car.

I am fine with the "ten miles long" club.

8. WHY IS IT SPELLED AMTRAK?

What kind lf business school moron thought the word "track" needed rizzed up?

Works perfectly fine spelled correctly.

I don't like getting cute with engineering. Too important.

Phase out that spelling as new labels are required.

What are the odds the Federal Governement owns Amtrack.com?

WE'LL BUY IT.

9. Why do you close the Cafe Car when it's not open?

The seats still work!

There's no observation car on the shorter routes. That's half the reason people hang out in it.

So leave it open. When I took "The Cardinal" twice both times the crew didn't care.

Obviously it's the official rule and some officials are more unruly,

I like them.

I Fought the Fight Club and the Law Won

Yesterday was my fourth day battling with weapons at NYC Fight Club . ( video from the third day ) If you are a woman and you wanna get some frustration out against men in a safe way I would suggest joining. You can shadow spar at boxing or martial arts and you can pick up a foam sword or knives and see how you'd fair in a duel. For the first time I did some shadow sparring while waiting for Martin the club president and dueling partner to arrive. He brought two foam knives that I asked for so I could try " double sai " against his single sword. Because I am unable so far to beat him sword vs sword. Although the last time I figured out a possibly winning technique and he quickly told me it was "against the rules" - holding and swinging the sword like a baseball bat.  Since it's his club I kept having to bend to his bullshit to not offend him. That time is now over. ***** I couldn't beat him two knives to one sword although... I never really try a...

I was a not worthy of A SPITFIRE  A 10 WITH EXTRA CREDIT. Tate McRae . For example. No way I could have picked her up back at Penn .

Lightning Fast Autobiography

Wolf Alexander is fifteen years old. That will make sense shortly. He was born in September, 2009, on the day he told the system "fuck you". ( related video ) ***** ( very related video ) From the moment I began to rebel I never let them tell me I was wrong. It wasn't all that spectacular. I refused to get out of my friend's friend's truck. Out of the bed of the truck. I decided no one on earth was going to get me out of it no matter what. I caved later when arrest was imminent. In the time between I shot down every attempt at coaxing and every assault to drag me out. Both boys tried and I fought them off.  Imagine a pickup truck out front and I am arguing with a dozen different people. I wasn't going to get out until I was good and ready.  If I had been the truck owner I would have called my bluff and drove off with the other me in the back but he wasn't that bright. Since then I was in a civil war with my socio-regional neighborhood back home. Ba...

The Best Platform for Political Office Ever

-
Image
1. THE DESTRUCTION OF THE TWO PARTY SYSTEM and replacing it with no system at all. Just people. Independent, non partisan people, running for office under their name, and behind their ideas. 2. DIRECT DEMOCRACY : "I am therefore I vote". About EVERYTHING. Congress and the President will listen to you. Everyone votes about everything you want to vote about and that will be added up. Eventually those votes will have the power of law. For the near future you will practice caring about your country and what your government is doing and you will have a say. Power. Real power to do more than vote for a different asshole every few years. Online banking is free from mass theft. So voting by phone can be too. The Super-Rich trust an electronic system to tabulate their inheritance numbers. Therefore a fraud free platform for direct democracy can be built.  3. PRO-CHOICE TILL THE DAY THEY DIE : they are the pro-life bastards whose day has come and now they will go. Girls how about fema...
