#route 85

I wish the best of luck for Bill Tretiak on his retirement. He was the greatest bus driver of all time. I will miss seeing him drive the 85 every weekday.

Forty-seven years of driving bus is quite a long time and Dialga was hoping to be part of my birthday or his birthday, but sadly neither had you involved with our birthdays. You were the last Winnipeg Transit driver to be from the 1970s and the last serving driver to attend Jakov Obic's funeral back in 2003. I guess with you now retired, I have to draw stuff for Rick aka Mr. Invisible. He knows Jakov too, but doesn’t know his other siblings besides Ivan.

Thanks again for being the GBDOAT (Great Bus Driver of All Time), Bill. Happy retirement. Dialga will miss you dearly. But hey, he made it to 92. Now let’s hope he can make it to 93 next year.

85 refuses to believe that Primal Dialga is real.

The 44 and 90 can’t help the 85 get over its fear of being eliminated from the WT roster.

I went to Mountain View today, and I was struck by how similar their downtown was to a college town. Or what my idea of a college town is. There were tons of young people roaming around, and they were mostly couples for some reason. It was really strange. Their downtown reminds me of Palo Alto, except that Palo Alto's streets are wider and easier to drive in. It's so much better than Berkeley, which is honestly not that interesting and very dirty. Also, I had a horrible time driving up to Mountain View. Route 85 is the worst road ever to drive on. The stupid potholes made my car go bump-bump-bump every ten minutes. Someone should really fix that.
