BR: Jesus and the 414

So I know everyone loves the term "cankles", but I feel that "fankles" is more fitting. So with that I begin the first in a series morning bus reports.

As I glance down I see a well worn pair of leather(ette?) sandals... Something Jesus may have worn... But just as he was persecuted, indeed the wearer of these should be taken in on charges of foot abuse. The long black embroidered skirt (circa Stevie Nicks) does no favors as it exposes a worn pair of fankles and straps which choke and constrict feet that appear to be attempting an escape of their own.

So we've passed through the Lynnwood Ash Way park-and-ride which has offered up a very interesting cast of characters indeed. There's "shorts guy" who, regardless of the weather wears khaki shorts of the well-above-the-knee purchased from a pile at Costco type. Apparently someone told him that the knobby knees were an asset because they're on full display as usual as we approach winter time.

Religious texts are popular on a bus which passes through Mountlake Terrace. As I glance around amid the morning papers and Judith Kranz novels I'm guaranteed to discover the book of mormon or like today, "The Holiness of God". What an unlikely place to find Jesus... On the 414. In truth even Jesus wouldn't be caught dead (or risen from the dead as it were) on a velour seat that has definitely seen its due share of sinners.
