Long bus rides are like television shows. Theyhave a beginning,a middle,and an end withcommercials thrown in every three or four minutes.The commercials are unavoidable. They happenwhether you want them or not. Every couple ofminutes a billboard glides by outside the buswindow. "Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.""Drink GoodWet Root Beer.""Fill up with Pacific Gas."Only if yousleep,which is equal to turning the television set off,are you spared the unending cry of "YouNeed It! Buy It Now!"
The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting,even if you‘ve traveled thatway before. Usually some things have changednew houses,new buildings,sometimes even a newroad. The bus driver has a style of driving and it‘s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so.If the driver is particularly reckless (魯莽的) or daring,the ride can be as thrilling as a suspensestory. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right?or the left?handlane? After a while,of course,the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass themiddle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you‘ve got to becareful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty betweenstops.
The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over andthere‘s a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat of course,has become harder asthe hours have passed. By now you‘ve sat with your legs crossed,with your hands in yourlap,with your hands on the armrestseven with your hands crossed behind your head. The endcomes just at no more ways to sit.
