David Ho, Part 3

Last week I had my first ride on a brand-spankin’ new bus. It was all nice and squeaky clean. The seats actually had funky cushions like those found on tour buses (you know the ones I’m talking about… all the hideous colors of the rainbow mixed together). As if this wasn’t enough, David Ho got on a few stops after I did…

He had a bunch of that goofy egg carton foam (the stuff people use to cushion their awful matresses with) tucked under his arm. He then proceeded to inform the bus driver that he was working on project. He went on and on about how he was going to make pads for the children so they could tumble without hurting themselves. Eventually he managed to refer to it as a gymnastics mat. Made me rather curious what kids he was talking about…

Was quite a banner day for him as he was talking at the bus driver quite a bit. When he reached his stop and started to remove his bike from the rack, he then went on to comment on how the driver had “noticed” the upgrades to his bike. He went on to state that he had upgraded the ethernet cable on the bike, in particular the blue and white ones that were part of the grounding system…

Does this guy ever stop? Apparently he does, because he told the bus driver he could go at that point.
