Best MUNI ride ever this

Best MUNI ride ever this morning. The driver announced the underground stops in a singsong way, adding little philosophical nuggets onto the end of each one. “The only way to make a good friend is to be a good friend” was one snippet of wisdom, and when he announced the Montgomery stop, he said something about the Financial District and that if we were watching the stock market today, the only stock that could result in happiness was the one with the five-letter symbol SMILE. As I was exiting the train, I caught quite a few people SMILEing, a rare sight indeed on the MUNI.
