Cab #501


Date: March 9, 2006
From: Wicker Park
To: Humboldt Park

The Cab: Clean and roomy.

The Driver: "How to go? Is it back that way?" Um, no. It's in the completely opposite direction as you think. Plus, disappointingly turns down his blaring radio even while a scorching guitar solo is playing. He turns it back up when Annie Lennox comes on with "Who's That Girl?". That song sucks, and so then, does the driver.

The Driving: Poor. Bouncing all over the road. Almost misses the final turn to my destination. Not really engaged in his work.

Overall rating: Two extended arms

- Steve Rhodes
