[pct-l] Chartering a bus

[athiker at cboss.com (Pat)]

Monty,
  I was on the bus from Independance to Bishop last year and some lady got
on at one of those little towns that it stops at along the way and sat next
to me. She made the comment that someone forgot to take a shower this
morning. I stuck my nose in my armpit and I couldnt smell anything out of
the ordinary, I took a shower but I had no deoderent, maybe I should put
some in my bounce box.
