I have to admit that, initially, I thought the following was a serious report:

"tamales out of a cooler" (1:23)? Sounds like it could be a new Amtrak contemporary and enhanced dining experience.

Note the date: 11/16/10.
The first hint that this was not current: The title starts with "Obama" That started me looking for the date. Now, if it had started with "Anderson" that would have been a different story. The graphics were beautiful, the bus zooming in and out of traffic. Comes close to reminding me of some of the Greyhound rides I had in the late 1950's.

Yes, George, I know it's an old presentation, but I thought it had some humor and interest especially with regard to current events. I thought they did a good job with realistic graphics.

As a youngster, we thought it was great fun to take a Greyhound, from our little town to the "big city", which was Santa Rosa back then. The Santa Rosa bus station had a pin ball machine, which we weren't suppose to play (being less than 18 yrs of age) but we sometimes did.

That was too funny, Richard. But yes I rode a few buses in my college days, when there were still bus stations in small towns and they usually had some sort of eatery attached where you could get coffee at 3am. Invariably my rides were to take a bus to catch a train., usually Southern or L&N.
