"Sir, there is a step right ahead of you and we'll get you in the bus. Buuuuut you wouldn't know that because you're blind"

I'd be pretty anxious too if I were blind and called 911 for an ambulance, but a bus driver showed up.

Do you mind if I take a picture, I'm building a gallery of "things that shouldn't go in certain places"

Death was here, he said he'd be back, he said we could practice.

Just because the rest of the world is wrong and doesn't call an ambulance a bus, don't give those of us from the east coast a hard time.
