I don't care much for the buses here in the greater Boston area, there's a thirty-minute gap between them most of the time (barring peak hours), and that's when they are, in fact, on time. I can and have on two occasions chosen to walk through a snowstorm rather than wait for the bus. The trains are pretty good, though.

Every now and then this one old black dude comes on the train, and he is just unforgettable. He's a loudmouth, and he's always wearing the same fedora + trenchcoat combo, and his hair is always in shoulder-length dreads. He claims to have been a gangster under Al Capone and that the latter "broke him in," "made him what he is today" (though "what he is today" is never elaborated on), and so on.

He's nearly picked a fight with other passengers a few times trying to back up his gangster cred, but I haven't seen anything come out of it.

I think he mentioned his name was Kenny.
