Your place to share stories on and off the bus.
Isaac was such a hit that he may have inspired a Missed Connection ad from our event. And you thought you didn’t believe in fate and true love.
Have fun watching Isaac’s retelling of his D.C. Metro story (involving a hockey move!) and try not to laugh too loud in your cube…
Yeah yeah yeah, you’re a San Francisco native who knows better than to leave your house without a scarf or say silly stuff like “the Muni.” But how’s your Muni knowledge?
We’re having a Muni trivia contest on the Muni Diaries Facebook page today — first person to answer all three questions correctly wins a Fast Pass Clipper Card Holder and two tickets to our next live show in November!
So keep your eyes peeled for the trivia questions on our Facebook page. We’ll announce the winner by tomorrow morning.
We’d also like to announce the winner of our “Drive for 1K” contest on Facebook last week. All new likes until 5 p.m. were eligible to win. Today, we’re happy to announce that our randomly generated winner is Jen Beeghly-Hills. Jen will receive her choice of a Fast Pass holder or tickets to our next live show. Contact us at muni.diaries.sf@gmail.com to claim your prize!

Later that evening, Joyce picked up the crowd by a story about riding the bus with her mom, who told the kids on the bus how it’s done.
Joyce is a frequent performer at Tourettes Without Regrets, the amazing monthly show at the Oakland Metro that is part spoken word slam, part variety show, and the rest — you just have to see for yourself. The next show is tonight, so don’t miss it!
We hate to lose such a local talent, but Joyce has big ambitions — she is going to Kenya later this month to hold free creative writing and poetry workshops for Kenyan women. If you are interested in her project, check out Joyce’s blog.
They’re back! Our second-generation Clipper card holders are once again available now in the Muni Diaries Etsy store. They were lovingly crafted by Heather L. — with tough vinyl to protect the real Fast Passes on the cover, and your Clipper Card (or whatever you wish) inside these cool wallets.
Each Fast Pass Clipper Card holder features an image of an old Muni map on the inside and back. Take another look.
The Clipper Card wallets are only $20, and I’ll wrap it up all pretty for you.
So, dress up your plain old Clipper Card. Get one of our Muni Diaries Fast Pass Clipper Card Holders on Etsy!

The 22 line where you get a high just from riding the bus. While you can’t count on it to be on time or even show up at all, your bus driver to follow any of those annoying traffic signs like “stop” or your fellow riders to have washed in the last week you can count on get a contact high from being on the bus. Whether it’s the guys rolling blunts in the back, the reek of their clothes or the guys offer to sell you some you’re sure to be a friend of Mary Janes by the end of the ride even if you are an asthmatic grannie.
