Thanks for the support guys. C. Phylis, love that I hear that some of your friends found my blog useful and inspirational! Have no fear, I’m set on bringing the blog back in full soon, just have to come up with a way to set that blog/life balance, and not get so involved that it consumes me. Let me shake off this Holiday laziness and I’ll see what I can do. :)

What has happened to our beloved Fred? Many of my friends who live in economically poor but transit rich areas in LA(Koreatown, Boyle Heights, Westlake/MacArthur Park) forwent buying a car and investing in decent road bikes because of people like Fred and the Meltrope area of EHO. I guess it could happen to anyone(the twilight syndrome that is) burnout I guess…I’ve seen it personally more than once. Godspeed good health to you Fred….you r missed.

I was wondering where u had ran off 2. Between my 3 blogs ("Transit Sleuth", "Loosely Coupled Human Code Factor", and "My Writings, Words, and Thoughts" I've been swamped in keeping up with them all and working, living the social life, and working on various business ventures - so I know the pain of trying to keep up with all this blogging mess.

Which bus have the purple seats and french new wave lighting? I have never taken that line…lol…

Good to get a bit of insight into your vision Fred.

“That being said it’s hard to believe that our TVM’s still use the stupid buttons that are hard to line up with the selection rather than touch screens…” Fred.

Those machines take forever to process info. I’ve had to break the law so I wouldn’t miss a train. I want to buy a ticket each time, but when I have to go one stop to transfer from the red to the blue, because I’m holding a bunch of crap I don’t want to miss a train, because it takes two hours for the machine to drop me some change!!! Ok two hours is an exaggeration, but it feels like it.
