The New and Improved MetroComb

The other day as I was taking the train home from work, a man stepped into my car and appeared to cross himself. "Did he just do that?",I thought. Then I saw the "I love Jesus" key chain around his neck and it was confirmed. The next thing I knew the guy takes his MetroCard and starts running it down his face in an effort to rid himself of the sweat that had collected on his brow. Hmmm. Then he takes the sweat laden MetrCard and flicks it so the beads of perspiration go flying. Now, I'm laughing, and so hard that I actually had to turn around. I wonder though, "Will he do it again?" Certainly, and I watch him brush the sweat from his face, not with his sleeve, but with his MetroCard. He then took it one step further and began using the card as a comb. Everyonce and a while he would pick bits off the card and study them before disposing of them onto the floor. It was amazing. This man groomed himself for a good ten minutes with his MetroCard. Who knew?
