Ok, folks, here’s what it’s like to cross the border on the Tunnel Bus.  Watch and see!

Happy New Year, gang!  We’re off to a great start for the year.  Today was the first day back after the holidays for most of us and we were greeted to a big ‘ol back up at the border this morning.  For some of our riders, the fun began before the bus ride itself.  With a new month, it’s time for a new bus pass.  Such a simple procedure to purchase a pass but it often takes so long with Transit Windsor.  Often times in the morning, there is only one person selling passes.   Since the month began with a holiday and it’s time for students to renew their semester passes, you get a big line up.  Fortunately, I thought about my new pass last week so that I could avoid that problem.  It’s not something that I always do, but I have been caught in big September line up!  So I guess I learned my lesson!

However, upon reaching US Customs this morning, after clearing we were all handed a “Number 1″ card.  It made me feel so great, that I told the officer receiving the card that I felt like a number 1 today.  What a great way to start off the year!  He looked at me like I was some kind of idiot — which I did to make the whole procedure look stupid.  Boy, I can’t wait for the new Homeland Security USA television show to begin tomorrow night!  Maybe we’ll see some of the ridiculous things that average citizens have to go through on a daily basis.  Well, thinking about it, maybe not!  More to come on Homeland Security USA tomorrow.

Happy New Year everyone!
