Only You...

I think Smokey the Bear should sue the conductor of the 3 train I was riding today during my morning commute. At 72nd Street she came on over the loudspeaker and said (after several unsuccessful tries at closing the doors), "Only You know if you can't fit on this train. And only YOU know if your clothes are stuck in the door!"

I don't think she was too happy about the situation, but it was kind of funny.


All joking aside, that conductor woman should be careful...otherwise she might summon the wrath of Senator Clinton.

it just goes to show... no matter how old you get, we are never too old to figuratively fight in the sand box.

Maybe its just me but has anyone else noticed that Smokey is out there fighting fires with no shirt on? Isn't that bad fire safety protocols? Needless to say Yancy, I got a good chuckle over that one...do they still do Smokey campaigns? It's been forever since I've seen one...

I'm amazed you were able to understand what the conductor said. I love that some of them manage to cram their standard "Stand clear of the closing doors please" into just 3 syllables.

i believe the correct title is "Smokey Bear" -- even though we all tend to include the "The" in his name.

thought you'd like to know that detail...

Tamara's right. I'm pretty sure it's just Smokey Bear. Like his cousin Yogi Bear. Smokey is a modern man, no need for such frivolous trifles.

Always :),
