I had to fly out of SeaTac twice this summer (from Seattle to San Fransisco and then Seattle to Santa Clara). It's never been as nice since they cut off most of the food places from the main concourse after 9/11.

Nope. No pics available. So here's a drawing of my local pub.

I don't know. It's a banner ad I got here on MacNN. Didn't really pay attention when I took the pic. I knew it would stir trouble

Looks like the same Hefeweizen, but a different place. I'm here at the Seattle Destinations Lounge.

Rickey's Dad lives outside of Kansas City, MO actually...just a coincidence.

George Brett was okay, I was actually a much bigger fan of Frank White during the "glory" years of the franchise.

No pictures of the home office right now-too busy trying to keep up with relatives trying to get out of Houston. But my wife and I are hard at it on our computers right now.

I think hefeweizen is "ok," but I prefer darker beers, for example Youngs Double Chocolate Stout. YUM!

Starman, is that WoW? And if so, were you affected by the plague?

I don't play the game, but this Corrupted Blood virtual epidemic is very interesting.

Yup, that's WoW. No, I wasn't affected by the plague. Nobody I know even has it, and there are over 400 people in our guild.

It's tough enough! At least right now while we're all trying to figure out the best strategies. I've only been in there a few times. The loot drops could be better.

Woohoo!
I get to play; the retreat I'm attending has Ethernet -
no wonder you guys love this.
Hellafast!

Last nite - out by the pool.
Spotted Hilary Duff earlier today - but didn't get the camera
out fast enough.
Came back to the room to watch the news; feel so out of touch here.
