Looks yummy. :P

That's tame Asian food. I have seen (and sadly, smelled) much worse.

Last time I was in Beijing it was the end of a long month in China and I really had to do some laundry. I was using my travel industry discount to stay at the Grand Hyatt for like 60% off, all grubby and travelworn, standing in the lobby with men in suits drinking Hennessey and smoking Cubans, and my pathetic, poor, nasty ass asked the concierge where I could do some laundry on the cheap. She politely suggested that I use their in-house laundry services which would have run me about $80. So I took a 15 minute cab right to the nearest WU-MART, the Taiwanese Walmart knock-off. They did my laundry for about $4.50. That's my story. I did not see any alligators with oranges in their mouths.

Nice avatar Coderguy. Did you see the Blue Angels today? I was out on my buddy's tiny Boston Whaler by the I-90 bridge. Those F/A-18's RIPPED, right over our heads. After over a decade in Seattle on and off, I'd never been out on the water for Sea Fair before. Despite the rain, it ruled. I did not see a single Sea Fair titty, however, the only disappointment to what has so far been a kick-ass Saturday.

Thanks! I took the pic myself last time I was down there. I had tickets for the air and boat show but decided to give them to a friend as she and her kids really wanted to go. I live up by Paine Field and we see the Blue Angels when they pop up here for maintenance. Definitely loud but fun to see. Being out on the water for Sea Fair would be awesome! Especially if you could afford to tie off to the log boom.
