How to Tie a Tie and Other Bus Adventures

So the other day in the back of the bus Eric got asked by a guy if he knew how to tie ties. Apparently since Eric is a "westerner", he would know? Well, he does, so right there on the bus he put the guy's tie on himself, tied it, loosened it, and then handed it back. Eric thinks maybe he was a college graduate from another city out trying to find a job since he didn't seem to know the bus route either.

Today my bus driver kept getting out of his seat at stop lights to watch the TV mounted behind him. They were highlighting a big sporting event that's being held in our city, and he appeared to want to catch the replay of the beautiful opening ceremony.

Later I was waiting to catch another bus and a cute little girl (3?) and her grandfather came up. She obviously had to go to the bathroom, so her grandfather told her to go. (It's normal here.) She pulled down her pants and squatted on the road right in front of me. When she was done, she had a big smile on her face, pulled up her pants, and was ready to go!
