      <![CDATA[Oh good - it's not just me.<br />
<br />
I've left my bike on the bus twice - once very drunk, and once distracted by the cute passenger I was talking to (and drunk). It's easier than you think. <br />
<br />
But here's a tip, Erica: Next time, just cross the street and wait - almost every bus runs in a loop, assuming it's not on its last run. It will come back. (Mine did, both times.)

What part of "Slog: Seattle's only BLOG" has confused your poor, little brain?  If nothing else, the level of snarkage here (at least as much as, if not in fact surpassing that of say, Seattle Livejournal) should have clued you in.  If it's detached, objective reportage you're looking for, you've clearly wandered into the wrong URL.<br />

That doesn't really make any sense.  I mean, it's not like their driving skills would suddenly improve south of Jackson St. or east of I-5.
