Chinese muzzie. Double bad I guess.

[Paine in the Neck]

Pens, keychains, tote bags, note pads, everything ...

All very collectable now, though.

[freedomlover]

What’s that up the road . . ?

[weegee]

Why? Did he kill again an hour later? < /s >

[richmwill]

The perp is from China.

[richmwill]

I’m laughing my head off over here...

COL Jack O’Neill: “Oy. Bad day. Very bad day.”

I think that they will need to reword their travel info. a bit.

Traveling by Bus
Enjoy Your Trip
All Greyhound buses are equipped with air conditioning, an on-board restroom, reclining seats with “headrests”, footrests and tinted windows. Feel free to bring reading material, radio “headsets” and a small pillow for your comfort. Food and non-alcoholic beverages may be carried on board for personal consumption.

Radios, laptops and other electronic items may be carried on board, provided that they do not disturb fellow passengers and that “headphones” are used. (External power outlets are NOT available on Greyhound buses.) Greyhound buses are not equipped for movies on board, although some connecting carriers may offer this service.

Most buses make intermediate stops to pick up additional passengers en route to their destinations.

Maybe they should say “final destination?”

This was a level headed decision.

Whoever made it is a cut above the rest.

[wideawake]

He was an immigrant from Red China who arrived in Canada in 2004.

Not to hijack the thread here, but whatever happened to the perp? Was he Muslim? Or was he just a Canadian pacifist returning from an anti-Steyn rally?

He's a fairly recent immigrant from Western China.

MAybe they can offer to reduce prices — say 10% off the top of the bill.

[Argus]

“Greyhound - Head and shoulders above the rest.”

[Zuben Elgenubi]

"There's a reason you've never heard of 'bus rage.'"

Because we cut off your head and eat you.

In all seriousness, I understand Greyhound is now serving headcheese on every trip.

[dfwgator]

Whoever came up with the ad will never become the head of a major corporation.

[Centurion2000]

Greyhound : Going out of our skull to get ahead.

[autumnraine]

I must have missed the part where the crazy Muslim tried to eat the victim!

[Tatze]

That ad campaign would be perfect for Amtrak now.

[fleagle]

How about, "Ride Greyhound because seriously, how often do you get to see a decapitated human head?"
