  1. What I miss most:

     

    Chubby and Tubby.

    The Palm Room.

    The Twin Teepees.

    The Phinney Ridge Bakery 2 owners ago when they had the best donuts in town.

     

    Denny's was cool, too.

     

    I miss the Bubbleator in the Seattle Center House. And there was this spooky shop in the basement of the Center House--something like "Madame 's House of Mystery." Wish I could go back and check out that place as an adult. It was irresistibly creepy when I was a kid.

     

    Of course, that was back in the 70s. Um, like, 40 years ago. :o

  2. who did you know in 1995?

     

    I was on the mountain not too far away when those three died, and started up the hill just after one guy died.

     

    saw one guy from france get helicoptered off too.

     

    To this day, I miss Scott Hall. A fun, warm-hearted guy. I learned to climb with him, and Jimmy Hinkhouse was on the first alpine climb I led, Ingalls in the Stuart range.

     

    It was so hard to accept that they were just--gone.

     

    The two of them, and Thomas Downey, who I didn't know, died that spring while climbing the West Buttress. IIRC, it appeared that they climbed into a crevasse to wait out a storm, and were buried by snow or glacier debris. :(

  3. "It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is. If the--if he--if 'is' means is and never has been, that is not--that is one thing. If it means there is none, that was a completely true statement....Now, if someone had asked me on that day, are you having any kind of sexual relations with Ms. Lewinsky, that is, asked me a question in the present tense, I would have said no. And it would have been completely true."

  4. You pick your market position, I'll pick mine. But, I am fully featured.

     

    Just when you thought a thread was dead... Fully featured is hard to argue with. But Treetoad has a telescoping...er, what was it?

  5. Yeah, well, if you shop the semi-yearly mens sale, you have to go to each sale, because the men always disappear after a coupla months.

     

    Sorry to Jenny for corrupting her thread with this nonsense. ;)

     

    And, hey, love the way the quotes telescope.

    You guys are, like, weird.

    Welcome back, C. You forget your password or what?

    And yes, we are, like, weird. It's why you luv us.

     

    It's my semi-yearly delurking season (sort of like the semi-yearly womens sale at Nordstrom, only different). The rest of the year I watch. And wait. :shock:

     

    What are the sale prices on women like at Nordstrom's?

     

    If you have to ask you can't afford them.

     

    The purchase price is the least consideration. The maintenance costs are what will bleed you dry.

     

    And the resale value is typically very low.

     

    Resale value!?...don't you usually have to pay to get rid of?

     

    That's just the beginning. You might be on the hook for years afterwards.

    It's like a Superfund site. Even after you thought you were in the clear, you keep having to pay for the clean-up for years.

    If they can find you... :whistle:

  7. i have alway had a deep love affair with Tup Tim Thai on lower Queen Anne. He really knows how to treat a guy.

     

    Was just going to say, my favorite name for a Thai restaurant is Tup Tim Thai.

     

    Mmm, Thai food. Could eat it every day. It's what's for dinner.

    Poll

    but what are your stances on gay marriage and abortion?

     

    Wide, I assume.

     

     

    :D

     

    that was pretty friggin' funny. and no one laughed, out loud at least. sheesh.

     

    I LOLd. :(

     

    However, this begs the question: if a LOL occurs in the wilderness, and there is no one else there to hear it, is it really a LOL? Or is it just an L?
