After spending last friday night introducing my new greeter to the scene, I find that there are just some things you can never see anywhere else but in Seattle. It is still amazing how some things happen, and I need to remember to keep my camera on me at all times just to make sure I don’t miss anything.

 I did not personally see this one, but there was word of a small air ride semi truck rollin around the square that had a load full of people bouncing around the back of it, cheering at the people in town.

Was this a promotional trick? A New form of party bus? Or did somebody hijack a truck and just tell everyone to hop on?

Who knows…

Also scene traveling down Yesler way and passing Merchants, was a man pushing a very nice leather chair on a wheeled platform.

As the crowd on yesler watched him pushing it toward the big hill, we all asked, whats he doing?

A couple people thought maybe he was offering rides, and others thought he might of boosted the chair from out front of a local store. If anybody knows the real answer, I would love to know.

 Something else that is entirely to funny, are the amount of people who wear sunglasses at 9pm at night. Whats up with that? I know you are a big fan of Usher and P.Diddy, but come on! The Glasses aren’t gonna help you get laid! Save em for sun on the beach or something, seriously.

Another interesting oddity in the square, is the interesting switch of cultures. There are now plenty of white guys flaunting their huge fro’s and baggy pants, while the african american community has started to grow out the mohawks and are starting to dawn lots of facial percings. Not that any of that is not cool, just a noteworthy thing to see.

 One last thing on this addition of ‘Say What?’, whats up with the druggies who come down with their walkmans on and dance through the middle of the streets? It must be some good shit if you don’t care about the other drug addict who’s in a hurry and about to squish you with his car.

What is profoundly amazing, is that most of the ’street dancers’ manage to dance in the middle of the street for up to 20 minutes without a single car coming flying down the unorganized intersection. Do they plan these things out?
