Strive for Excellance

Something I excel at:

Saying/Writing and doing socially stupid things.

(now for that Gemini 180 degree spin)

Last weekend I ended up in Seattle playing foosball.

The trip up involved a detour due to road construction closing I-5 between SR-500 and I-205 in Vancouver......did I mention this was a Saturday afternoon.

The night included, Thai food, seeing statues of Lenin and a Bridge troll, purchasing a record, drinks, Youtube, Foos against people that work for a major dot com (apparently they have a foos table at work and play "at least 3 times a day"), buying 4 pints of beer for 2 dollars (not including 100% tip), a skirmish which involved a drawn weapon, and dirt cheap burgers (which maybe aren't that good; except after imbibing alcohol.....good to me).

That weekend also went to the Museum of Flight. Saw an SR-71 and landed a WWI biplane (in the simulator with only a couple bounces). Going to the Museum makes me want to watch The Right Stuff and "Baa Baa Black Sheep".

We are poor little lambs......who have lost our way.....baaaa-baa-BAA.....
