I boarded the bus today and I paid 85 cents. The driver didn't open the slot to accept the coins. So I stood there wondering what was wrong. Then he looked up and at me with a smile and said the fare is 90 cents...He said with a dismissive wave that it was ok and he didn't insist that i pay the 5 cents. What a nice guy.

Oh yeah, I still haven't figured out why the pencil that Dorothy gave me was 'suitable for computers" (that's what was written on the pencil)?
