As I tried to take a picture, it jumped right off the chair and came in for a close up in less than two seconds. Then it chased a squirrel. Haven't seen it since. I hope it didn't catch rabies.

Congrats Christine and Riz!Two weekends ago, I spent time with my adopted family, the Raymundos, at Christine's wedding. The last time I saw them was in 2003.

2010-09-07T01:09:00.001-07:00

Last year, I managed to spend the whole long weekend watching shows and enjoying the art that regularly inundates Seattle. This year, the art was beautiful, particularly the graffiti by katsu. The music selection was not enough for me to get a 3-day pass so ron and I got one mainstage pass for the last day of festivities. Well worth our $40.J.ColeThis man is up and coming.

I've taken many a bus to Seattle to kick it. This time around I'm going to the bumbershoot festival. Today, on this bus, there are many kinds of people. Passengers from an Alaskan, cruise, some Quebequois, a man who is just visiting his kids, all sorts. There are two little boys on this bus. They are so cute, maybe 2 and 3 years old, and they have their little kid voices speaking Spanish

There's no kickstand, BUT we're throwing in its original cruiser handlebar as well as the ape hanger handlebar (as shown in the photos) FREE :)Please holler
