3 Gorditias and a Polka-Playing midget
Things have been slow around PWP lately, what with the Muggles back to work, and the mugglelitos back in school. I was all set to write a fluffer piece today about the latest key word search on MSN that found PWP being "lactivists", but that all changed this morning.
I stood up to get into line to get off of my morning train, right about at my usual place. When I looked into the vestibule today, a wonderous sight shown down on me. There were the usual 3 gorditas cramming themselves in there, trying to be the first one off of the train, but tucked nicely into the drivers window was a short little dude with a headset on. The guy was about 5'2" tops, and that was if he had 6 inch heels on. Anyway, when I opened the door to the vestibule, I was struck by the unmistakable sound of polka music screaming out of his headset. Then I was struck by the irony. All of the gorditas who annoy everyone else by getting in everyone else's way to be the first off of the train, were stuck in a closed area, with polka music blaring loudly out of a near-midgets headset. Now this is one time I enjoyed volume theory in action, and I hope to see it again on a daily basis.

Artistic interpretation, maybe. But the core is true, there was a short guy listening to polka really loud in the vestibule, with 3 annoyed gorditas present. That much is 100% true.
