Happy Thanksgiving

For those in the States. (And for the rest of you, Happy Thanksgiving anyway.)

And a note for all the "War on Christmas" warriors -- although I doubt that any of them read this blog:

I don't know if I've mentioned this before, but the CTA, for the holiday season (which has now begun), programs the displays on the front of the buses to show:

Route number and name (i.e., "22 Clark")

Destination ("Howard Red Line")

now followed by

"Seasons Greetings"

and then a graphic of Santa's sleigh.


I've already seen one bus with the display reprogrammed; looking forward to more.
