The Guy on the Bus Sings Again

This morning he was back. Singing large dude on the bus. Now, I'm not normally one to judge, but this guy, well, he's over the top, and you'd have to be traveling sealed in a beef bucket not to notice what he's got going on.

It began just like last time. Mp3 player clamped to his ears and the occasional outburst of a line or two, totally out of tune but without any self-conciousness at all. I'm pretty sure it was Great Big Sea. But this time he also had a hand held video game, and sporadically he turned off the MP3 player and sang along with the video game instead. There were no lyrics, just typical video game music, but he made some singing noises anyway. Very curious.

The singing was ok. After the last incident I was somewhat prepared for that. What I wasn't prepared for this time was the step dancing. He stayed in his seat but his legs were full on step dancing without any question whatsoever.

When the big yellow bottle of prescription pills comes out it's still shocking. Pour out a handful, work up some saliva in that big grinning mouth, and down the hatch.

I don't know what they do, but they don't help the singing and dancing. Maybe next time I'll ask.
