The NJ commuter train was my daily sojourn into/out of Manhattan for a couple years. When I could find a seat, I usually read one of my numerous hunting/gun magazines while listening to music on my non-IPOD mp3 player. Sometimes I would just sit and meditate, sometimes I would sleep, sometimes I would talk to the wife, who was still living in Denver at the time. Can't say as I miss that 2 hour a day commute.
