] "Whatever your holiday travel travails were Thanksgiving
] weekend, it could have been worse: You could have been on
] Sally Weisbrot's bus the night of Nov. 30.
]
] Eager to get home after spending the holiday with her
] sister in Mount Laurel, Weisbrot, a 30-year-old New
] Yorker, watched from her second-row seat with mounting
] dismay as the Greyhound driver, trying to find a
] less-congested route north, made one bad move after
] another.
]
] His biggest mistake came while the bus was mired in
] traffic on Route 9. After exasperated passengers asked if
] he knew where he was going, the driver got on the public
] address system and made a remark he would soon regret.
]
] "I'm taking you to the Taliban," Weisbrot heard him say.
] "Don't worry about it."
]
] It was a bad, nonsensical joke, everyone agrees now. But
] with the specter of war with Iraq looming and Osama bin
] Laden still at large, America is hardly in a lighthearted
] mood."

I don't know, I'm an American and I'm in a lighthearted mood because I thought this whole thing was pretty funny...
