Anybody ever been in the Cash Cab?
Just wondered.
How did you do?

1. I wish. If I ever get in I'll tell him to take me to Cleveland and back.
I'll make a fortune.

2. I've been pretty good at answering the questions.
But I don't plan to ever be in NYC again.

3. I heard they're doing a show in Vegas but I doubt they'll get down your way.
Meanwhile I'll have to settle for this shirt.

4. I drove a Detroit Cab. I got 50% of the take. So you could
say I drove a cash cab.

6. It was then. I don't know what the scale is now. I kept all
tips and illicit drugs passed to me. The poor tipped better than the rich.

7. "The poor tipped better than the rich." We almost always do.
We can identify.

8. I found that was true during the Post Office food drive.
My route went from the Landed Gentry to the dirt poor. My route always collected over 600 lbs of food, the largest of our office. None of it came from the two high end streets.
