Public transportation

I'm sure there are plenty of blogs all about the crazy things seen or heard on public transportation. Actually, Overheard in NY is just about the best thing ever for someone like me and most of those encounters are recorded on the subway. Anyway, it's easy pickins, but today there was a guy on the trax. Sort of a skinny, younger guy wearing a Harley Davidson vest (am I the only one who thinks it's funny that someone's repping motorcycles and taking public transportation?) and other assorted faded black denim and leather, with a confederate flag hat and scraggly dishwater blond hair. He seemed like he was trying to be real cool and nonchalant, until I looked over and there he was, white ipod earbuds hanging down, wailin' on the air drums. He DID NOT STOP. Would not- and when you thought he had, he'd start right back up again. 10 minutes, this went on.
