My experience was actually quite good both times. I sat next to some very interesting folks, including: a Mexican migrant worker whose English was just good enough to carry on an interesting conversation about America, a blind woman who shared with me the difficulties she faced in everyday life because of her disability, a beautiful young woman who I dated for a while after meeting her on the bus (she is a doctor somewhere now), and an older woman who showed me pictures of back when she was a young dance instructor. Great times. Sorry to hear your experiences have not been as good. <em>John's last blog post..<a href='http://totaltransformation.wordpress.com/2008/08/01/obama-too-thin-to-be-trusted/' rel="nofollow">Obama: Too Thin to be Trusted?</a></em> I road a Greyhound bus twice- once from North Carolina to Vermont and another time from North Carolina to Florida.

I had to ride the bus before and I was horrified simply by the lack of upkeep of the facilities. Most of the people were dirty. The government should end all greyhound bus transportation services until the facilities are improved and proper security measures are established similar to the airlines. Although cheap, greyhound bus service isnt worth your life!!!! Riding greyhound buses should be banned!!!!

I still feel guilty about making you take a bus to the Buffalo airport. :( Oh well, it's all water under the bridge now. :) Oh, and I don't remember any type of security before boarding that stupid bus. So, I guess the moral of the story is, if you have to ride it, you should probably be packing heat.
