decent ferry rides?

I NEED TO VISIT A KILLER WHALE THATS NOT IN A MEXICAN AQUARIUM!

You're not too likely to see a killer whale near Seattle. I've only seen them up in the San Juan Islands which is a bit of a journey north.

J, I wouldn't let location keep you from hurling a sturgeon at someone at any given time. Then if they're like WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM, you can be like oh sorry, I'm from Seattle.

Good Idea!

I need to brush up on my catching skills just in case someone from Seattle surprise hurls one at me while im reading my USA today.

The guys at Pike Place Market are usually hurling salmon. If you ask nice they might let you have a go. Yes the market is cool but us locals try to avoid it on the weekends when it gets overrun by slow-moving gawkers. Excellent selections of produce, fish, baked goods and good places to grab a meal.

Thank you.

no weekends check.

Decent food check.

Thats a good idea. I'll yell "INCOMING" and throw a giant salmon into their faces. I think I should start something like that here in Alberta. Grab a giant cut of beef and throw it at people!

I was there on the weekend the first time and it was CRAZY. The second time was better cause it was a Tuesday. Try Beechers cheese and the flavoured vinegar place. The french pastry place was really good too. I wish I had asked to throw a fish! You can also check out the first starbucks and get a picture of the mermaid boobies!

I like mermaid boobs and coffee. This is doable.

"Awwwww man. My bad. I'm sorry. I didn't realize that wasn't cool here. Want a napkin?"

Here's the original logo. Apparently it's considered too risqué for the rest of the world. I have no idea why.

Why is her tail(s?) spread? She is so grabin her fins.....dirty.

Im going to try it with anchovy first just to gauge the general acceptable fish face serve.

She's actually a double-tailed siren. Dirty sirens are deemed acceptable 'round these parts.

She's a dirty mermaid. Ariel would be jealous cause she gets all the attention from the boy mermaids.

[Hannahrain]

Starbucks is getting back to their roots, using the full logo again. They just put her hair over her boobs a little. And they've introduced "Pike Place Roast" as their new standard.

That one in the right bottom corner. Oh dear.

I mean, you can't tell me you don't see spread legs and bad leggings.

[superfiction]

yeah pretty much everything cool to do here has been covered. we have a sculpture park too. i havent visited it yet so i dont even know if its finished really but its supposed to be cool

[Young blood]

Thanks for all your ideas and suggestions. god bless.

I live a few blocks from it and I'd say that it's worth a visit, especially on a nice day. They did a pretty good job of cleaning up that area and Myrtle Edwards Park is not nearly as sketchy as it used to be. I guess they shooed most of the crackheads elsewhere so they wouldn't bother the sculptures.

Yes, that one was pretty tacky. I remember giggling at the original when I was a kid. Now that we've come full circle I feel obligated to giggle once again. Oh you, Starbucks!

Isn't there a bridge troll in capital hill? I think it captured a VW beetle.

No, the troll is in Fremont, under the Aurora Bridge.

[kreutz2112]

yeah. Fremonts cool. That's where my friend that lives in seattle took us when we went up there for daft punk. Aren't there a lot of bars in fremont?

[invisiblerobots]

Yeah, there are quite a few bars there and a couple small venues for shows too. Fremont has been steadily become gentrified over the last decade. It used to be a quiet little enclave with artists and other eccentric people (like the ones that made the Troll). Ever since Adobe and Getty Images set up big offices there the spirit of the area has begun to change and the condos started going up. It's still a cool area, though, and worth a trip north from downtown if you've got some extra time.

[kreutz2112]

I actually had the best time in fremont out of anywhere in seattle. We went and ate at a pub and then bar hopped and saw a bunch of local bands. I

I have been reading the seattle weekly and it said the best beer hall in freemont was Chinook's at Salmon Bay...is this true?

[rage patton]

Killah whales?

I NEED TO VISIT A KILLER WHALE THATS NOT IN A MEXICAN AQUARIUM!

Invisiblerobots is right. Not in Seattle. If you come up to Vancouver though, there are lots and lots a whale seeing tours.

The Weekly sucks. Chinook's is neither a beer hall nor is it in Fremont. In Fremont I like Brouwer's Cafe which is a Belgian place. Check it: http://www.thestranger.com/seattle/L...location=30441

My favorite bars on capitol hill are:
Cha Cha - total hipster joint, but good bartenders and always a packed crowd
The Hideaway - nice small, lower key place with a lot of cool quirks

My favorite restaurants:
Via Tribunali - best pizza in seattle (up on the hill)
The Honey Hole (BBQ joint up on the hill)
Betty or Crow (nicer Americana on Queene Anne)
Pho Bac (best Pho in seattle, in the international district)
Chez Gaudy (awesome italian place on the hill that walks around a bunch of small dishes that you pick and choose from, with really good deals on wine on tuesdays)

Clubs:
I dig Neighbours, despite being a "gay club" the crowd is really diverse, the music is solid, and it's good for dancing. I'm not a big "club" person, I just like dancing on occassion.

The stranger. cool. Brouwers Cafe. check.
