Sharon, George and I couldn't stop giggling when General Olbricht launched Operation Valkryie with a blue colour pencil [I'm not sure if it's a Luna]. How cheap-skate is that?! LOL.
After counting how many years old could Colonel Stauffenburg's wife be when she died, those two Damansara-experts brought me to the illegal bus-stop which I was totally not aware of. It was not a bus-stop after all, it was just a curb by the road and people were seen waiting for the same vehicle I was waiting for. That was also what triggered us in laughing at how Rapidkl bus drivers are having the PMS twenty-four-seven.
Metro buses in KL are considered the angels of buses, they have bus conductors who are always helpful and considerate to the needys. I was sleeping in the bus once, due to the exhaustion from a full-day window shopping and this bus conductor tapped me on the shoulder suddenly. "You, Jaya 33, kan?" I immediately dashed out of the bus with relief and embarassment.
Rapid KL bus drivers, on the other hand are the kings to slaves like us.
1. They stop and do not stop whenever and wherever they like. They whisk pass us without a hello very often even if you were waving both your hands at the bus driver five minutes ago.
2. They don't entertain simple questions, like is this bus going to so and so? You either get onto the bus or you don't.
3. If you have no change of RM1 notes, do not board the RapidKL. You either get a good scolding or you won't be able to board the bus at all.
4. If you have no idea where you should stop, do not board the bus. You may end up going in rounds, to be precise, 游车河. The driver isn't going to help you unless you meet a samaritan on the bus.
A lady once approached me, asking me which bus should she board as she was not familiar with the area. My advice to her, flag yourself a taxi, ma'am.

Now I wonder where I got the idea of wanting to become Malaysia's Transport Minister one day.
