Common tater! Ha!

Also, I stole the mushroom joke from Amanda. There is no shame in the pun game.

“Everett is like a hot Eastern European woman wearing an ugly scrunchie.”

When I first read this, I laughed. Then I started to think about it. Oh man, now I have a reason when people ask me why I’ll never move back to Everett.

That’s funny regarding Southwest — I think you’re right, definitely part of their “shtick”.

A few years ago on a Southwest flight from Austin to Chicago the air conditioning broke about half way into the flight. By the time we landed the temperature had gone up easily 10-15 degrees. After landing it turned out we were going to be stalled on the runway for some time. One of the attendants got on the speaker and said…

“Good news! We’ve fixed the air conditioning.” Pause. There was a collective sigh.

Then the attendant starts going… “shhhhhhhhhhhh shhhhhhhhh weeeeerrrrrr shhhhhhhhhh” making these air conditioning sounds. It was hysterical.

Safe travels…

No-Meato Burrito is probably my new favorite phrase of all time. And it’s from “Bimbo’s Bitch’n Burrito Kitchen”? What’s up with that?! Does everything in Seattle need to be some mind-blowing rhyme?

Your comments about performing for little kids’ birthday parties and dressing up as super heroes reminded me of this story from my high school days…

As a summer gig in high school, some fellow drama students and I were hired to be Power Rangers at this rich kid’s birthday party. It started out ok… we were greeted with lots of “Oohs and Ahhs” and “Wow! Cool!”s. All the kids came up to us and shook our hands. It was great.

But then the person that hired us, the host of this lavish birthday party, thought it would be fun to let the kids dress up a little too. With a tiny bit of gray face paint, these innocent little children were transformed into a hoard of evil Putties. (I didn’t know this at the time, but Putties are the mindless, dispensable foot soldiers sent by the evil villain of the week.) Within seconds, dozens of 7-year olds were punching, kicking, clawing and climbing all over us. They were quite literally trying to kill us.

What could we do? Fight back and risk giving some rich kid a bloody nose? Not likely. These once proud and revered Power Rangers quickly retreated to the minivan from whence they came.
