The double decker train

Heading back home from Wall Street this evening, I took the PATH to Newark and was surprised and delighted to see double decker train pull in. It was, theoretically, cool. It looked cool. It was a local, but I knew I had to ride on it.

And so I did. There are problems. You can't put your coat overhead, because there's no overhead rack. It's kind of claustrophobic.

But there are a lot of seats, and it gives you that Japanese feel of density, for whatever that's worth.

I know the kids will love it. Graham was totally into the short-hop round trip we did the other day, just for fun.

Hey, it's not your Santa themed garb that grabs attention for you as a consultant, it's your hideously enhanced maleness that bowls them over! Database, shma-tabase! Stop stalling with cute kid stories and give us that photo!

That's right. We want the Santa outfit photo and we didn't forget. And now that it's going to be after Christmas soon, the suits and garb will be on sale and you will have one less excuse for getting one. Pretty, pretty please??
