There was once a man on the bus who wore a red suit and hat, whose eyes held the sadness of a lifetime, and I mourned that day that I could not know him better.

Hey, this would be a good theme for a song.

It really is sad that we can’t just stop our busy lives and go buy someone a cup of coffee and spend an afternoon hearing their stories.

I agree totally, ‘mouse.
We always get to hear the stories of the people that need to shut up, but never the stories that need to be heard.

‘mouse, you are kidding about the theme for a song, aren’t you, because you must know it already is one, I’m sure.

...it’s already a song? If it is, someone must be stalking me…

Now Baltimore’s joining in the kidding (I think).  I know I’m beating Keith up cuz he can’t post a song link this week and I know it’s killing him.

Heh, bummer for him.

And, yeah, there’s a song that mentions God on a bus, but this really is something straight out of my life.

Life imitates art imitating life. 

I like your sentence (and that it’s your life) better than the song.

I should have known ‘mouse was teasing me.  At least he didn’t poke fun at my bad haircut.

And I wasn’t doubting you, Baltimore, or thinking that you stole a sentence straight out of a song.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, some friends have invited me out for a snipe hunt tonight.  It sounds fun!
