Things I Overheard on the Train To and From Newark

1. Three very loud women discussing how loud they were.
2. A discussion of how some woman's fifth grader smells when he comes in from outside.
3. A very involved cell phone conversation trying to explain where to women were to people on the same three-car-long train.
4. Two conductors talking about mini-cheeseburgers.
5. Far more questions about where the only train on the platform goes than is reasonable from a pack of adults.
6. Tales of the girlfriends of the fifth grader in #2.

Ha! People are weird-- but I love it. Mini-cheeseburgers. What is that 5th grader doing? Rolling around on poop? Maybe he's spraying that stinky Axe cologne and getting little girlfriends.

I think the point was that the fifth grader is finally old enough that his sweat stinks. Not sure.
