MARC updates

this morning i was greated with a lovely surprise when i boarded the marc train. they have a little newsletter that they left @ every seat to inform me of all the things i ever wanted 2 know about the marc. for example, did u know that the marc is ontime only 89% of the time? according to national surveys, if a train system runs less than 95% of the time on schedule, its not satisfying its customers. i'd say so. then they told us that the reason they r so bad is bc they share their tracks w. amtrak and freight trains. this is a factoid that was shared at my shabbos table. it means that they get preference and thats y we always have to wait for the freight train to pass us. grr. ok im going 2 eat lunch now bc my boss is still in his meeting and i have NOTHING 2 do and i have been doing NOTHING since i got here.
