  1. The Museum of Popular Culture is some good nostalgia if you've never been. My kids loved it, but it's great for adults as well. If you're going to the Chihuly museum, it's right there in Seattle Center. MoPop Pier 57 is kinda touristy. But the Seattle Great Wheel is nice on a pretty day. And I thought the Wings Over Washington Flying Theater was really cool.
  2. “Blesses are the Baylor fans, who will wallow again in the Big XII cellar.”
  3. Where is this “Elko is a terrific coach” stuff coming from?
  4. Toward the end of World War II as the Allied forces had entered Germany, 12 Polish soldiers in Berlin came upon a young German woman in an alley. As they approached her with the intention of having their way with her, she screamed, “Nein, nein!!!” So three of them left.
  5. Heil Kicker!
  6. What it is ain’t exactly clear.
  7. I mean, she lives in Georgetown, Texas, so . . . .
  8. Marcel Reed is bad, Looch. And not like the Michael Jackson song.
  9. Any recs for a casual lunch spot in Capitol Hill after we get back from a morning hike?
  10. “That was a big, beautiful infant facefuck down there in Texas, to be honest. Just what we need in DC to help drain the swamp and end this recession I inherited from Crazy Joe Biden. Thank you for your attention!”
  11. Yes, you should not put money on it.
  12. Paxton just needs to put a photo of Cornyn's brisket on a dozen billboards across the state and he wins by a landslide without raising another dime.
  13. The Space Needle is indeed cool. But it's like a lot of similar places in New York and Chicago, in that if you don't go early or midweek, you could get stuck in a very long line to spend 15-20 minutes at the top. Even with timed-entry tickets, it can take a while to get to the top of the Space Needle. I've been up there twice and don't feel the need to go back.
  14. I'm also there this week, Wednesday through Sunday. The weather looks like it'll be outstanding -- lots of sun and highs in the upper 70s. Of your list, we're going to Rock Creek, Chihuly Gardens, and Pike Place (our apartment is about five blocks north in the Belltown area). Book a tour at Seattle Underground. I took my kids several years ago and it was pretty cool. http://www.undergroundtour.com/ Or, stroll around Fremont. The lower Fremont area (if that's what they call the south side closer to the water) has some great lunch spots and breweries. Local Tide is supposed to be the hot new seafood place.
  15. I’m not here to answer your questions.
  16. So addictive that he’s never going to buy another bag again.
  17. It was the best option that wasn’t out of the way. Brisket was just okay, but the jap cheese sausage slapped, and the potato salet and coleslaw were solid.
  18. Oh sure, when it comes to those kinds of cats Baylor speaks out consent . . . .
  19. Let’s talk about your capitalization of “have.”
