Meeting went well, and I was flattered that Brett visited my site and noted my web log. The foot brace seems to dig in a bit to the sole on the left-hand side, so I’m going to have to have the doctor adjust it for me. I'm looking forward to polishing my skill and learning some lasso...from what I understand, it's pretty straightforward and if I got php, I'm already well there. I look forward to hearing from them soon. The receptionist was an outstanding, friendly lady, as is the big chief and other programmer I met. They seem to have a really good team.

Journey home through the haunted tunnel via palm-cam. I was going to animate it, but it would've tripled the size. Good ol' jpeg wins again. Minor commentary on hover.


On the west side, ready to go in.
showing both lanes of traffic... actually two one-way tunnels
last chance to turn back before entering the mouth of darkness
Not so dark, really...the echoes were pretty loud though. The walls were quite sooty.
missing ceiling tiles. Directly under the river. I wonder if any fell and smashed windshields... or caused any accidents? I saw no fragments on the ground inside. Is there a special cleaning crew?  I got paranoid and moved quickly past it.
Walking into the light
The glare was pretty strong... very afterlife-y
On the other side lay a Starbucks with an iced Chai.


Getting together with Danny after Lovejoy today [update- Lovejoy's pilot episode was quite good, much better earlier in the series.] Not sure what we'll do yet, but the day is young.

GrayPumpkin here: I used to drive through that tunnel all the time during my late teens. I never saw it as haunted.
My friends and I would always honk our horns the whole time we drove through it. Usually it got a few others to follow suit. Sometimes we’d be in three different cars and we’d all do it. I would probably find annoying nowadays but back then it was just goofy fun.

I need to learn to lasso too ;) then I could catch Quinault-llama... Chinook and Quilcene come right to me...

Peace

Oh, roping-lasso would be great! I've always thought the lariat was a neat skill to have.
