  1. But wait.....Call NOW and we'll double the order.
  2. Victoria BC is OK but it takes a lot of time to get there/back. It's on Vancouver Island, so it's a boat trip. Haven't lived in Seattle for 12 years but if there's a direct boat from Seattle, it's 4 hours each way. If you take the Washington State ferry from Anacortes, they used to go to Victoria, and then turn around and go back, so only 1 round trip a day, meaning overnight there. Don't go without a hotel reservation. It's nice, it's quaint, it's British, much like Niagara Falls Ont., without Clifton Hill. And because it's Canada, bring your passport. Bainbridge Island Ferry is OK but go as a "walk on." There's not much to see there, and if you take a car, you'll pay through the nose. Mt Ranier is very nice but it's a national park, and a wilderness area. If you're into back country hiklng, it's nice, but it can have temperature/weather swings, so be prepared for that. Expect rain/drizzle. That's why we left. August & September are beautiful but the other 10 months are drizzle & fog followed by fog & drizzle. Very much a damp marine type climate. Vancouver BC is prettier than Seattle, but it's a drive up I-5. Instead of the Peace Bridge, they have the Peace Arch, BUT where the peace Bridge has adequate inspection lanes, Blaine WA does not. Be prepared for big delays crossing into Canada there. If you get there, I always felt that the BC ferry system was much nicer than the Washington State system. The weather is marginal, but there are a lot of great restaurants & bars, so you will enjoy it.
  3. Let's start off by my saying; "Yes, I'd like fries with that!"
  4. Well we could get his car towed, and film him picking it up, and showing his as* to the clerk, and..........
  5. Having been stuck living in Houston for 4 years, I feel your pain.
  6. Constantly! If they promise you 70 Virgins, and "training" in a foreign country, run away.
  7. Maybe one of his ex's was there?
  8. Does that get her to the front of the line? Might not be such a bad deal?
  9. So there's a job opening in Seattle! Alert young person needed, no experience necessary.
  10. Very happy to hear that! Too many times you hear that "they got it all," when speaking about cancer, but it has a way of proving the Doc's wrong.
  11. You had to know that Timmie "Poindexter" has to have his "own man!" Can't imagine anyone wanting to work for him. What did he give Nolan to work with? Ted still has 1-2 years left on his contract, so he'll be OK.
  12. Maybe he sets up a couple of rows into the Dawg Pound?
  13. I love "shovel ready" jobs!
  14. Sorry! Washington DC needs signs in at least 5 other languages to be effective.
  15. Is Detroit changing their name from Lions to Lasers?
  16. It put Oprah in the dark, who could have a problem with that?
  17. We drove down to Raleigh to see them play Carolina. They mailed in their usual suck job. Outshot 2-1! So last night, when we would have appreciated a "L,"
  18. Well, we pretty much NEVER have a good Thanksgiving, so we take what we can get.
  19. Are they fracking down there again?
