My neighbor is an er nurse. The number of times that she sees bedbugs in a week is unreal and on the rich and poor alike.

Didn’t you know? Taxis are famous for the pristine condition of the cars, the hygiene of the operators, and the concern for the customer’s well-being... this sort of thing could NEVER happen in a cab!

Oh, she has achieved the ultimate enlightenment. She’s got two solid axles and an inline six.

It’s actual not terrible. That’s all I’ve got.
