I came up with and told a story in less than 8 hours. That’s like Top Chef time constraints for me. They don’t make reality TV about writing competitions or telling true stories.  That doesn’t mean it’s easy.  Good writing can save a mediocre product, a concept I’d like to discuss more with Mike & Jerry.  I think the question of how much hype is too much bears more analysis.  It might finally convince people to start taking care with things like spoilers and poorly constructed movie previews. 

Today I found out you can wear a swimsuit to Seattle Center and play in the fountains.  Summer heat just got a lot more interesting.  Not to mention the amount of free entertainment tourist season cultivates on the streets themselves.  I’m not a voyeur when it comes to photography but there’s an element of candid I can only get with strangers.  I have hundreds of pictures of things I see.  Now I need to explore the Venn circle of “things people want to look at”.  Pets and children are a safe start.  Ceremonies and occasions are the next logical step.  Requiring no more pay than compliments, free food is always a nice surprise.

There’s a food court in the Armory.  It’s got a fudge shop hidden in the back corner.  It’s not far enough walking distance to counteract the effects of that much fudge.  This is why fudge is the word used to replace fuck.
