Where to begin..? Jordan says I'm a diving rod for these sorts of things. (And, let me note, I picked the seat for that trivia contest with Ricky's cousin!) Umm...

Jordan and I watched a bunch of (drunk) guys compete to see who could do the most chin ups on the MGH bridge, hanging from the bars on the T. It was the last train to Cambridge. I was waiting for one of them to puke, but alas, the story isn't that exciting.

A man was having a heart attack, so the driver stopped and radioed for an ambulance. The lady next to me complained that this would make her late to work and was convinced she'd be fired.

I once saw a girl throw up on the train and then pretend like it wasn't hers for the rest of the ride.

Didn't happen to me, but a friend:

A very drunk (and apparently thirsty) man begged a young woman on the last green line C train to let him buy her unopened Diet Coke. All the other passengers silently prayed that she wouldn't. But she did, and he chugged it in 8 seconds, then projectile vomited.

I was trashed, pissed, fucked, blasted, gonzo, f'schnookered, blitzed and wasted when I hopped on the 2 a.m. bus in Rome. The driving made me sick, I tried to explain it to the driver, he brushed me off. When he smelled the puke, a light went off in his head and he understood what I was trying to tell him earlier; we cleaned it up together.

There's a guy who plays guitar in the Back Bay station (Orange line to Forrest Hills). He's absolutely tone-deaf and I used my cell phone to record him singing his own little rendition of "You Better Watch Out' just before Christmas. I was convinced we could use it to market 'The Reindeer Monologues," which is a rather un-holiday-like show...

When Jordan and I flew to Florida for Thanksgiving there was a mother just *shoveling* chocolate into her 5 year old the whole flight to keep him quiet. When the plane landed the kid stood up and promptly puked chocolate all over the isle. I was the first one to who had to step over it :)

...Aaaand I flew to China with a two year old and an infant. Yes folks, that's 14 long hours! We had a lot of fun changing diapers in the galley bathroom.

Gotta love Philadelphia: Group of teenage girls and their babies get on the bus. One baby starts making noise and squirming, so its mom slaps the baby to make it stop. When the baby starts crying, the mom nuzzles it saying "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I just had to make you stop hollerin. I'm sorry."

Oh man that's totally not the most insane one (although it might have been the most disturbing/depressing). I can't believe I forgot this one:

I was taking the overnight train from St. Petersburg to Moscow (yup, in Russia) with two guy friends, it was EXTREMELY hot in our roomette, and there was nothing we could do about it but start stripping down. Some woman throws open our door -- to see me down to bra and panties and bent over with my pants around my ankles, and two men lying on the bunks in only their boxers. "OH MY GOD!! I'M SORRY!!" she screams in Russian and RUNS all the way down the hall and into the next car.

This morning I saw a man riding the T with a large envelope mailer on his head. The strangest thing about this is that this guy's reputation had preceded him. I had heard about him before. This was not a one time occurrence.

From Munich to Amsterdam, I happened upon two Austrians who shared with us wine and cigarettes. Between laughs and smiles, fighting between the two would break out sporadically — intense, beat-you-with-my-fists, welts-and-bruises type fighting — all night long. Needless to say, I didn't sleep that night, but I had a lot of fun.

I sat next to a dude on my 8am green line commute who was watching porn on his portable DVD player. I can't decide which was more disturbing: him watching porn in public, or the idea of porn at 8 in the morning...

One time I was on this bus and it had been hijacked by this dude who made it so that it would blow up if it went slower than 50mph...shit.

I also know kung fu.

An oddly filthy guy (who, according to his business card, runs "Boston's One and Only Italian American radio station") was playing a Lou Monte CD on a boom box in the Downtown Crossing Station. He tried to make conversation, which I rebuffed by saying that I don't like Lou Monte. He countered this by giving me the Lou Monte CD and asking me out for coffee (took the CD, declined the coffee... left the gun, took the cannoli.)

I saw an elderly woman in a wheelchair wearing a t-shirt that said "Hip hop sucks because of you." I took a picture.

Someone sat next to me on the green line once whom I, without looking at him, knew he was someone I should not make eye contact with. He began giggling softly as the train trolled through the tunnel and eventually said in a confidential tone, "There aren't any preservatives......(long pause).......in WATER." I finally looked at him and he was staring straight ahead of him with glassy eyes and extremely yellow teeth.
