A day in the Seattle area

As noted in a previous blog entry John and I are traveling this weekend. We needed to go up to Seattle to pick up some computer equipment on Saturday and drive back with it over the weekend. We decided to fly up early Friday morning (which required getting up at 0415 — not so fun)…

TimesOnline.co.uk wrote an article titled “Women should be hit for wearing sexy clothing in public, one in seven believe“.
