A quick plug for Ninja Burger as well as the Charlotte Transit category here on the blog since Google's spiders can't see it too well. The video, found after the break, got a chuckle out of me as well.

Rumor has it that you can grab the Ninja Burger RPG core rulebook (the older first edition, not he newer second edition I'm afraid.) from here.

Someone asked for a picture...

Gotta admit that I hate doing pictures but I had someone send me this one from when I was on the first train out of the station when the LYNX light rail system started on Nov. 24th. Even beat all the higher ups who were supposed to be on the first train. (Not sure why. We started at the 7th Street Station while they started at the Transit Center.)

Got lucky as well. Had just finished helping Calvary Church serving breakfast to the homeless that morning. I was walking over to CPCC to use the library and the train was just sitting there.

Got a t-shirt out of it at least.

Charlotte Transit Kills Another Person

Taken from here:

A man was killed Sunday after he was hit by a light rail train. It happened just before 8 p.m.

Charlotte Area Transit System officials tell Eyewitness News that the man was sitting on the tracks at the corner of South Boulevard and Old Pineville Road.

Investigators are trying to figure out why the man was on the tracks. They'll be reviewing on-board video from the train to help in the investigation.

Not the first person to die at Charlotte Transit's hands either. (But my Google searching is mush today and I can't find any links.)
