The greyhound bus is not necessarily the nightmare they make it out to be. sure its cold, and noisy, and draughty, but on my trip from Birmingham AL to Memphis TN we had a kind of 'in flight entertainment'. The large black lady who was driving the thing was handicapped by the broken PA system. Handicapped, but not inhibited. Every hour or so she would bellow something unintelligible (to me) in a thick southern accent hacked up with a smokers laugh. If anyone happened to be on their phones or listening to headphones at the time she would somehow spot this in her rear view mirror and holler abuse at them till they were listening full scale to her instructions / observations / announcements. talk about value; i didn't have to pay a penny extra for that.
