Sitting at the airport, waiting to fly up to Seattle. I just remembered the last time I flew in and out of Seattle, the plane hit some of the worst turbulence I've ever encountered. What a pleasent memory to take onto the plane with me.

I've found a cure for fear of flying that also takes care of in flight boredom:

Step 1: Get to the airports only and go to the bar. At the bar consume 5 double Jack and cokes.

Step 2: On the plane, drink 4 Ginger Jacks.

Works like a charm. Of course I don't remember most of the night after my last flight.

Thanks! Now you've brought back memories of my experience flying out of SeaTac. :x

They aren't pleasent, but at least I'm still here. :surrend:

Hey Breed, are you actually staying somewhere without net access? I think this is the longest I've seen you go without posting.

All the problems were on the Seattle end.

I suppose I've been lucky, but I've never had a scary moment flying into or out of Seattle. Certainly the whiskey helps, but really the worst ever was flying into Atlanta for E3 one of the years E3 was in Atlanta. That was brown trousers frightening. 5 thunderstorms. 5 seperate thunderstorms that were clearly visible from my window seat.

As for SeaTac, I love my SeaTac. Especially the C Gate bar.

Never been there either. I was only in Hollywood area and Long Beach when I went to Cali last year.

Both of these cities are dominated by their seaports. They both have lots of seadood, and other port related commerce. They both have very damp weather. They each have very distinct local attributes. San Francisco is on a narrow peninsula and has a similar density to New York, but it is really nothing like New York. The Seattle area is more spread out, less congested. Ferries are used a lot there to cross large bays that separate communities. I haven't spent a lot of time in either city myself. I would say they are both worth visiting.

It's for the better.

One is worth living in. :cool:

It's a bad April Fool's prank. Yours happened to be the first post I looked at this morning.

I did get some laughs out of it though.
But yeah, it was kinda bad. Alysha & I asked for more to be done with it, but it never happened.
