Seattle's Funnel Cake Celebration

Whatup everyone?


I had a long, busy, yet great weekend.  I spent the entire time at Seafair.  Like I said before, the website claimed Seafair to be "Seattle's Summertime Celebration."


Well, after three days spent there, I gotta say it is at least one type of Seattle Summertime Celebration.  It jus depends on if speedboats, big jets, navy recruiters, marines recruiters, army recruiters and endless plates of funnel cakes are your schtick.  If so, do you!



yum dont this make u hungry for junk food



Despite consistently getting out there at least 1.5 hours later than intended (I swear I been sleepin way too much) I still managed to sell tons of cds and....well no accomplishments other than that but it's all good, cuz CD sales was honestly the only reason I was there. 


One coo thing is the speedboats.  While I didn't actually see any of the speedboats (too busy selling cds), but I could hear the engines in the background and...well ok I couldn't quite hear the engines...but I could hear the people cheering for them so it at least sounded somewhat exciting. 


If yall aint know, I'm more into things like music and...music, rather than speedboats.  But yo, I read they go 200 mph on the water which is crazy if ya think about it.  Another wild thing is how they get the speedboats onto the water.  They don't bring it in like they do with a normal boat.  Nah.  Instead they lift the joints down onto the water via crane.  I'm not sure why they do it this way.  Maybe cuz the boats are so light and perfectly sleek that the slightest bump could fuck up the water-aero-dynamics, so they gotta use a crane instead. 


But I'm no rocket scientist and I definitely aint a speedboat designer. I'll leave this stuff to the guys who do it for a living.  Here is a pic I took of them lowering one of the boats into the water:

    Hey. I was at Seafair yesterday and you came up to me a few times trying to get me to buy your CD. I listened to a song on your Mp3 player and really liked it. Then today I went on your Myspace and listened to those songs. You have really good songs! So I just wanted to tell you good luck
