    I don't know...it sounds like he was riding in a different part of the bus before, so this might have been random. It'll be interesting to see how it comes out.

    i believe, that young woman he had a smoke with caused this. again, proving that women have evil powers.

    Last time I rode on Greyhound (and the only time I ever have) I probably wouldn't have been too surprised at some guy stabbing some other dude and then sawing his head off. In fact it would have been the highlight of my trip.

    I rode it from San Diego to Minneapolis. I think the highlight of my trip was the guy snorting cocaine in the row in front of me somewhere in the middle of the Utah desert. That was a looooooong two days. If I'd have had a knife, I would likely have stabbed someone too.

    One night after a concert in St. Paul, I was waiting for a bus at the Greyhound terminal...sometime around 3am, this man across the waiting area(had that homeless look) gets up out of his chair, whips out his wang, and proceeds to p like a horse, right on the floor in front of him...I was unfortunate enough to make eye contact with him. People working there didn't bother to clean it up or anything either.

    you think getting jokers back in line would make you a debbie downer, no....

    I say it is hard to bring down any thread that mentions human decapitation. Thats about as down as it gets. You sir, are a ray of light!!! compared to the headlines today, and your moral fiber is an example we all could could draw from. I appreciate your rebuke on tastless jokes over some poor soul getting offed in the worst way.

    I understand and respect your stand on this.

    I withdraw my comments about you being a debbie downer, you are a "MR Moral Fiber"

    Well, it's settled then. Tablemates on the cruise. I'm not going to spoonfeed you though. It's just too embarassing ;)

    That works for me. More elbow room at the table. Perhaps we can have our own table inside our "Circle of Death", complete with our own wait staff.

    I have a feeling that 'the butcher' was on some sort of hallucinagen. Or maybe just ended a five day meth binge and was trippin from the lack of sleep.

    Either way, nothing that I would want to experience or see happening. I couldn't imagine standing outside of the bus and seeing the guy holding the head up at the window for all to see.
