Things you don't notice from the car:

- The roads in Jersey City are really crap- I mean, you might notice a little, but honestly, you don't appreciate just how crap they are until you've looked at them without having a suspension system between you and them

- There are a lot of one-dollar and two-dollar jitneys running circuits around the city, but only on certain large roads

- The DMV is two, maybe three, blocks from the Journal Square PATH station

It's that last that kind of gets me. I walked to the PATH train (it stands for Port Authority Trans-Hudson for those of you who care for some reason) from the DMV today, going "d'oh!" internally the whole way. I mean... right. There. Out of the DMV, over the overpass that crosses the train tracks, past St. Demetrios Church, across the street at the light, past the Dunkin Donuts, into the parking area, and down the stairs and there you go. Journal Square PATH. Just like that.

Ah, well. Now I start looking into chainless bicycles in earnest. A nice touring model with a good seat and the ability to install saddlebags would be tops.

Um. Good heavens.

Somewhere out there is a headline writer who's much too pleased with himself or herself.

Hnh.

Amazing how often quizzes throw up their hands and say 'here, have the generic category' when I'm involved...
