Legitimate Guerrilla Advertisement on Muni
It’s still a sluggish economy out there, folks. Perhaps when this job-hunter put their dead-tree ad up on Muni, they knew it would find its way to the Internets. We’re so predictable.

Bus Cartoon from Old Master Q
Reader Robert Livingston sent over a cute cartoon by Old Master Q about what you do when the bus isn’t exactly made for your size. I don’t know why Shorty looks so mad at the end. I would be pretty pleased with myself if I were him.

Reader Sonia C has a question for y’all pro Muni riders: What’s your idea of a perfect San Francisco afternoon if you have a one-day Muni Passport?
Hi! I came across your awesome blog and wondered if you might post something for me or give me some ideas. I have a Muni Passport that I plan to use this Saturday. I will have about five hours to ride around San Francisco, stop for lunch, maybe walk around. I will start at the Powell Street BART station at 11 a.m. and want to return to the same spot at about 4 p.m. Can you suggest an itinerary that would show me and my friend the city, good and bad?
