I blindly decided to take Caltrain to the city for Cirque tonight (had a great time btw) instead of looking at how much it would cost to park there. I still don't know how much it cost but it couldn't have been too much more than the $27 r/t fare plus parking at the Palo Alto station and we wouldn't have had an hour ride each way plus 45 minutes waiting for the train home. And on the train home was this weird smelly homeless looking guy who kept getting up and walking back and forth past me apparently counting people.

So the stpid thing was not checking parking and taking Caltrain. The rest is vent, which properly belongs in the other thread.
