Learn: I had to educate myself about public transportation I Stanislaus County a while ago. When I was first coming to CSUS, I used to take public transportation because I didn’t have my license yet. This was in late 2005/early 2006 so a lot of routes hadn’t been cut yet. It would take me over an hour and a half to get from the mall in North Modesto to the STaRT bus stop in front of CSUS. I think one of the reason’s people don’t choose public transportation over driving to a destination is that driving is just faster. Also, Modesto isn’t a big city so more people may work and want to visit places that are further away and driving may be more convenient. The STaRT buses can take you to I think any city within Stanislaus County; the furthest is Turlock I think..
Act: I would build a High Speed Rail System (original, I know) underground! And I can do this because I’m a badass millionaire. But until my project is completed people can ride their bikes, use public transportation, or carpool. I, myself, use a car to wherever I need to go. My older sister, however, HAS to take the bus wherever she goes, and with two small children, she finds it somewhat of a struggle. She sometimes has to wait a long time when transferring from one bus to another because the buses don’t do routes as often as they used to. My younger sister also took the bus for school. She didn’t like it because guys would bother her; she told me that one time she was harassed but decided to not tell. This made me pissed of course.

My banana peels help make the trains go faster! (and it poses no danger at all to the passengers...)
Imagine: My underground High Speed Rail System would connect most cities in the valley to one another or to other forms of public transportation like BART. This would make it faster and safer for people from Modesto to go to work or school. I will use my banana peels to make the trains (or whatever they’re called) go superfast! My rail system would be faster and more convenient than a car so people would choose it over driving. It will be environmentally friendly as well.
My wonderful postcard -.-
Yay - banana peels for speed!
ReplyDeletelol 'badass millionaire'! anyhow your twist on a banana peel driven underground train is very creative.....no pictures yet though
ReplyDeletethat was funny! I love the banana peel speed thing, and the underground train idea is very solid.. well done!
ReplyDeletePublic transportation is kind of crummy the people that go in these buses are kind of scary
ReplyDeleteAgreed public transportation is a hassel and driving a car would get you there in half the time it takes to ride the bus. Good Idea with the bananas -__-
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't mind public trans so much if it didn't smell like sadness and regret.
ReplyDeletetahts funny. banana peels to make the cars go faster. who would have thought that thats all those scientists needed! lol
ReplyDeleteMan, your poor sister! I think it was Japan (maybe) that begun running a train line for women only so they wouldn't have to worry about being harassed. It kind of bothered me because instead of expecting dudes to act like humans, they had to shelter and protect the lady-folk. I think maybe women should just carry electrified cattle prods with them at all times.
