Sometimes it IS what you say and not just how you say it.

Yesterday, according to MSNBC, while on a bus trip from Philadelphia to New York the passengers began to complain when their driver took alternate routes to avoid traffic. As their complaints increasingly annoyed the driver, he finally said, "don't worry about it, I'm taking you to the Taliban."

At least three passengers with cell phones called "911", and within minutes, more than two dozen police cruisers stopped the bus. Everything was found to be ok, so they were allowed to continue on the trip to NY.

I should say the bus and passengers continued on their trip with a new driver. ;)

EDIT - The Driver was detained and eventually charged with "Creating a false public alarm."

Heehee... Taliban? Is there a well known Taliban base in the states? [img]smile.gif[/img]

<font color="#ff6666">Stupid comment by the driver, stupid riders for not letting the man do his job, and sillier still the people who thought he was serious. :rolleyes: And people wonder why I believe in sheeple. </font>

What did the cops do to the driver... do you know?

I agree with MagiK. Stupid comment but the passengers? Dear God. Taking you to the Talibans? Yes this trip is non-stop to Afghanistan. [img]graemlins/idontagreeatall.gif[/img]
