The One Train Delay This Month

It seems that no news means good news as I haven’t written a blog entry here in over a month.  The one train delay that I encountered was minor, but it came at a bad time.  The New Jersey Chemistry Olympics at NJIT was last Thursday May 19.  The organizers asked everyone to come in by 8 AM.  With that thought in mind I woke up 20 minutes early to guard against possible train delays.  The “Murphy’s Law of transit delays” happened as a boarded the 7:27 from NYP to Newark.  Door problems delayed the departure for 20 minutes.  I arrived at 8:20.
