TriMet loves their max. Screw buses.

TRIMESS
Apparently, this morning TriMet cancelled 6 or 7 runs. All because the max was down. TriMess pulled people off their regular bus runs to do a stinkin bus bridge! One lady that rides the 67 in morning was late to work because her bus didn't show! A bus driver, Jose, was driving 6767 then and they pulled him for awhile!..TRIMESS..always filling for max!..crazy asses!

Please note that project design will not be complete until spring 2012 and is subject to change. With service scheduled to begin in 2015, the Portland-Milwaukie Light Rail will travel 7.3 miles, connecting Portland State University in Downtown Portland, inner Southeast Portland, Milwaukie and north Clackamas County.  Learn more   Fall fare increase proposed to help offset rising costs A fare increase is proposed for September 2011. The increase will help cover the rising costs of providing bus and rail service, and to avoid further major service cuts. Like most years, we plan to raise single fares by 5 cents. We also propose raising the price of an Adult 1-Month Pass by $4 and the price of a Youth Pass by $1. The TriMet Board of Directors will consider these increases at its April 27 evening meeting, with a decision expected at the May 25 meeting.

Justice is served!

serves her right. Now what about the other guy who was with her?

MTA blaming falling bus ridership on the economy rather than their gouging service cuts

MTA bus ridership declines in recession | LA Times
The transit agency can take no blame for it. Why, when bus service is cut ridership should rise! Doesn't that make sense?

This seems like something TriMet would do, too.

Find these people!

Don't let them get away with this!

It's TriMet tax day, too.What are we paying for?

Why not radiation-test West Coast fish?

Fish such as salmon and tuna swim long distances in their lifetimes, and many make it quite a ways toward Japan before turning back to the United States. Alaska is one of Japan's closest neighbors -- you-know-who can see it from her back porch.

Gaming Our Own Asses

  I have never lived in a time when so many false narratives competed for supremacy of the collective mind-space. Omnipresent as it is, reality seems to elude us, and certainly its supposed interlocutors - figures such as presidents, his highest appointed officials, their voluble, strutting opponents in the other party, the glamorpusses behind the Cable TV news desks, poor dim Bill Keller at The New York Times, and, of course, the necromancers of economics on campuses from Cambridge to Palo Alto.
