    Joe's Jag will be hemorrhaging fuel on the journey across the city with all the traffic Thursday and Friday.

    There's not much traffic at 12:30 and 3 between Clontarf and Montrose.

    Nah, he will take his summer holiday, poor over-worked Joe.

    What do telephone operators get in the You Kay?

    The per-headage rate is lower. A National Personality T.O. could make more, with all the special events, I suppose.
    I'd not be surprised if you could hire a few T.Os over there for the price of a Joe.

    Nah, he was on the bus during one of his "documentaries". There again, it was rented out exclusively for him to film that segment, so technically he didn't pay for it either.

    Producers were probably worried that he'd block the stairwell similar to Homer in the waterslide

    Not really. His response was to belittle him as his public transport knowledge and experience was in England. As Joe said (Christ I'm agreeing with Joe), "hang on if he said he worked in another industry you'd say he had no knowledge of public transport". Plus he said he had a chip on his shoulder. He was playing the man not the ball.

    Driver-less buses. Hmmm, I wonder could we have presenter-less phone-in shows? That'd save RTE a fortune.
