Your place to share stories on and off the bus.
By now, we hope you know about the amazing photography being committed and distributed every day, many times a day, for free, over at Caliber SF. The talents behind that website are immense, and deserve your bookmarking/subscribing.
The photo above is by 1/4 of the talent at Caliber, friend of Muni Diaries, Julie Michelle.

Last week we found some killer art showing up at BART stations as part of a “First Ride” campaign for kids. Cool stuff.
The artist himself tweeted us to tip us off to some of his process drawings.
Josh Ellingson saw our post Friday about his new art at various BART stations, and tipped us off to more. Here’s a Flickr set that includes the images again, as well as process drawings he used to create them, and some of the signs iterated in BART stations.
Thanks, Josh!

Awesome find of the weekend over at Market Street Railway blog. You’ve heard it or read it a thousand times on Muni buses: “Information gladly given, but safety requires avoiding unnecessary conversation.”
Sometimes, I want that to be my motto, on Muni, and off.
Anyway, MSR is selling these nifty shirts. Buy one online, yeah? Or, even better, get one at the Market Street Railway Museum.

No, by “tip” we don’t mean advice. Just referencing what we found to be a funny and perplexing tweet yesterday from @biorhythmist:
How much do you tip Muni drivers? I don’t want to look like an ass.
Anyone care to help Mr. Rhythmist out?
Via Beth W. via Laughing Squid, we were informed of this triptastically awesome Ellingson art that’s popping up at area BART stations. Laughing Squid has more.
