Discovering Gold

I spent the day going to and strolling Pasadena, courtesy of the new Gold Line extention of the light rail system. They were giving everyone free rides and having mini-celebrations at each stop. Much to my amazment, the trains were standing-room only, each stop was packed and the guy said the wait to get on was three hours earlier in the day. I thought only I was geeky enough to be curious about a mass transit system.

I also used a Border's gift certificate I got for my birthday to buy three Brazilian music CDs, two of which turned out to be pretty cool compilations.
