5/5/10 AM

Notice that bus turns off at the stop before me, a couple blocks down. Don't think anything more about it until the bus kills at the stop sign after I get on. And again at a stop where a passenger with a bike gets on only a few blocks further. At this point, several of us passengers look around at each other and wonder what the deal is. Bus runs smoothly until we get just past 94th circle and pick up a passenger. At this point, the bus kills, and the driver gets it started, but can't get it moving. The back door light is on, and a passenger gets up to open the door so that it will close again, hoping it will 'unstick' the bus. Frantic driver continues to press buttons, turning on and off the lights, opening the front door, etc. Eventually, after about 3-4 minutes, he gets the bus moving. New driver? Shitty bus? All of the above? We'll never know...
