You have greatly overestimated San Francisco's love of cardio-fitness, Muni.

There sure were a lot of passengers along the 21 route yesterday -- right next to the race, boy, it sure was busy. Think of how many fares they must've collected! Or would have, if they weren't sending out broken fare boxes along one of the busiest routes of the day. Whoops. Bus 5528 was a free ride for anyone lucky enough to catch it; and out guess is that lots of folks got lucky at Muni's expense.

Why is Muni always complaining about not having money -- and yet when you're ready to give it to them, they act like they don't want it? It's like a hobo eating out of a trash can, sneering, "I don't need your ."

After the jump: more complaining!

Sad, isn't it?

According to Muni spokesman Alan Siegel, "[t]he cable runs continuously (up and down the line), so we have to find the one section of the cable that's damaged ... we have to run (the cable) slowly until that section gets into the car barn." [via SFGate]

But fear not, California Street cable car riders. Those wacky kids over at the transit agency will run buses on the California Street line to help you get home. Speaking of which, do any SF residents actually still use the cable cars to get to and from work or school or wherever? As opposed to riding them for that wistful Rice-A-Roni feel?

Oh, and the other car lines are running just fine.
