Yay two chairs!
Why does megafauna creep me out so much?
You saw that enormous bat on Tumblr the other day? YIKES.
My family took a drive to the beach this evening, and it is crazy how much my grandmother, mother, and I are all beach people. We were all like, "Ahhhhhhh" as soon as we got there. We just looked at the water for like a half hour and then came home, but it was lovely. I can't wait for it to be hot enough for me to actually go to the beach! (There were people in the water today, but I think they are a little nuts.)
Hivemind:
I am in need of pictures of fat men wearing suits in the 1910's and 1920's. My google-fu is failing me, and I am sick of looking at men in suits!
Seattle-istas, my neighbor is going on quilting cruise to Alaska and will have about a day and a half in Seattle at the end of the week before all the happy little stitchers get on the boat. She'll be staying at the Sheraton downtown. I told her I'd ask for recommendations for restaurants nearby. She is a woman in her 70s of decided opinions. Her food tastes are pretty wide ranging. Italian is probably her favorite. She doesn't do hot food in the spicy sense. She's not a beer drinker. She'll be eating all three meals out, and she's fond of breakfast food.
Also, there's the question of what to do if you only have a day in Seattle. I said Pike Place Market, which is where I went on my only day in Seattle, but is there anything else you can suggest?

I shall offer this: [link] It's a former Prime Minister of Australia, photo taken in 1915.
William Howard Taft: notably fat man who was frequently photographed in suits. [link] (Also, Cincinnatian.)
Here you go, Sophia, President Taft.

Gigantic snake: "...Don't do that."
I'm phobic but the snake is totally in the right in this case.
I thought Huey long might be good, but I looked at some pictures and he doesn't look fat. I guess he just lived large.
Oliver Hardy and Fatty Arbuckle might also merit a google.
