Muni rider Nick C has a report of international security concerns on the 1-California:

One morning on the 1-California, heading inbound to downtown, a woman who thought she was some kind of secret agent boarded the bus. Two other women, one with a thick Russian accent and the other with a Chinese accent (who I assume were coworkers) were talking about something related their job. Ms. “Secret Agent” was starting to get nervous so she took out a toy walkie talkie and called in for some “backup.” She said, “We’re in need here of a Chinese and Russian assessment.” Whatever that means. Either she’s nuts or Muni is really starting to beef up their security.

See something, say something. Especially if it’s your job.

Queercore band Lucky Jesus jump-started the show with a cover of Berlin’s “The Metro,” rewritten to fit San Francisco’s own crazy transit.
