What a delightful drawing. As soon as the video finished it suddenly struck me that it looks like a religious service… which would make me wonder what role the tickets are playing! 🤣
When I was young, I traveled from Boston to South Bend, Indiana to visit a close relative then studying at Notre Dame. In those days (1970s) they placed the tickets overhead, and not on the seat backs. And of course every station has its own abbreviation, as airports do. So going to South Bend, I had the honor of riding for about 20 hours under a ticket that conspicuously identified me as "SOB". I was going to start the next sentence saying "It could have been worse..." but at the moment I can't think of what comparable thing that might be.
Thank you for a slice of reality. I (and I suspect many others) am so tired of the constant ‘begs’ for money on the media, guilting us that they will fail unless I send them money. I could wish it to be Nov. 6, because whichever side loses will be challenging the election results, and at least we will feel less guilty if our favorite candidate
…does not win. The inevitable challenge process will undoubtedly eclipse the 2020 challenges, but at least it will be different things hitting our inboxes!

yes, tickets to heaven, I guess! Thanks!

Ha! Yes, Amtrak still puts the tags overhead. That's funny!
I loved this. Brought back childhood memories of riding the NY Central and seeing those little stubs sticking up! Thank you.
Thank you! You're welcome, I'm glad!
