Nobody Knows Anything
All I know is that I dumped a largish bundle of 13-week US treasuries on Friday, a tad shy of the August 4 rollover and moved the hypothetical cash into less freaky hypothetical foreign sovereign instruments. I found a great bid for the T-bills, too. The whole transaction cost me a buck. I wondered: what were these people thinking who bought this crap at just the moment in history when everything is flying into walls and fans?

TriMet Release
But as we look at TriMet's weekly ridership numbers for June we see this:
Bus: 1,143,700 trips
MAX: 868,900 trips
WES: 8,100 trips
This is now where TriMet tells us that MAX has better ridership than buses which is why bus service must be cut as much as possible all the while they expand MAX range. More people ride the buses than MAX, TriMet.
When will they ever acknowledge that and act by that?
Oh yea, and then we've got pathetic WES down there with *gasp* 8,100 trips! Stellar investment they made building that line and wasting thousands and then on top of it, bailing out the company that made the original WES train cars, eh? That thing is, and will always be, a black hole.
