And what, exactly, are you researching? or is that something I really don't want to know?
That's classified, ma'am.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

The traveling exhibit "Jim Henson's Fantastic World" will be at the Science Fiction Museum in Seattle May 23 - Aug 16, 2009.
Pretty sure the eating and/or wearing of muppet pelts at the exhibit is frowned upon.

I will say Port Townsend is really pretty - and somewhat hickey. If we are going to consider places like Olympia is also about two hours from Seattle (shorter or longer depending upon traffic and whether you drive insanely fast), very pretty and very hickey. Yeah, Seattle makes more sense in all sorts of ways.

I've been to Port Townsend--very pretty, lots of nice little shops, but not what I'd consider a big F2F destination for the entire weekend. I love the idea of being in Seattle proper and am already putting aside money that I hope can be used for the F2F, wherever it is!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Oooh! We could probably still get our tickets fixed!

I just remembered another little attraction. Seattle recently added a trolley service which goes from downtown to, well, nowhere anyone cares about except local billionaire Paul Allen who owns businesses there.
So, big deal, right?
Well the trolley service is called the South Lake Union Trolley (perhaps the T is Transit, who cares) but anyway, apparently no one was smart enough to notice the acronym was SLUT. The locals noticed and at least one coffeehouse made a killing selling "I rode the SLUT" shirts. Officials were typically lacking in any sense of humor but everyone else still calls it the slut.
So, who wants to come to Seattle and Ride the SLUT?

ME! Between the slut train and the muppet exhibit, Seattle has my vote.

Seattle has my vote too.
And Juliana, I hope you won't take my description of Port Townsend as offensive, especially since I used the same term for my own town.
