Bus ride home

Caught the 101 bus home from rehearsal tonight. Coming down Sunset into downtown Renton the bus (one of the articulated variety) began bucking back and forth rather dramatically around the articulated midsection, like a rodeo bull. I remarked to the lady in front of me, "Gee, does this mean if we ride this bus more than 8 seconds, we win a prize?" She didn't get it.
