A Sign that PAX is Imminent

Today I was going downtown to get my CCST shirt made, and I was driving down Clifton towards the highway to go downtown. Well for those of you who don't know, Clifton is 6 lanes wide with a left turn lane in the middle. So, I'm driving down and there's some traffic. Well traffic starts to slow a bit and I wonder why, when across the street bounces a big blue ball.



Draw your own conclusions.

    So the ball has begun its journey to the west coast. See you there Ball.

    Luckily I'll be busy this weekend so I won't have to sit around constantly thinking about PAX, however Monday-Wednesday at work next week is going to suck. I'll probably get half the work done I need to because I'll spend the other half of my time going over PAX stuff.

    I demand and artists' rendering of this event.

    Is this big blue ball the same size as "THE BALL" or was it much larger like the size of a car?

    I was driving some out-of-towner friends around, and I kept complaining about being blinded. They responded with "You see, where we come from, people tend to wear Sunglasses." I retorted with a simple "You people tend to have sun."

    Technically you could be from everett cause it says that your 20 miles from seattle and everett is about 20 miles from seattle.

    This is necessarily true. If Everett is 20 miles from Seattle, and someone lives 20 miles from Seattle, it's possible (as in could) that they live in Everett.

    What you have said is not untrue.

    Another sign:

    I was at work last night. The last place you'd expect to find a fellow PAX goer. I mention to a coworker that I need to save up money for the convention I'm going to, and a new girl, who I didn't know that well said "Oh my god, are you talking about PAX?"

    Finding friends already.

    Man, when an event has the power to make people leave their jobs, just to attend. That's powerful.

    As far as non-Seattle cities in Western Washington go, Everett isn't half-bad, I'm telling ya. I've lived in Everett most of my life.
