Better living thru chemistry, that's what I say.

"Gandalf" also has the root-word "elf" in it in the original Norse epic Tolkien took the name from.

IIRC it means "Elf of the Wand" or something like that... referring to the staff he always carried. BTW I really liked how Gandalf had different names among different peoples. :)

What's E-9?? What are we gonna do? I only have a very vague idea.

I am very excited, my friend. This is probably the biggest thing that's happened to me in recent history. I think the last time I did something this bold was when I went to NYC with my high school drama class. About 25 years ago...

Yeah, but they open at 10:00 am... and I figure we'll still be operating on Central time, so we might actually be up and around early enough to be there when the doors open.

E-9 is "Engine House Number Nine". An actual old turn-of-the last century fire house (like from when they had horses) for the Tacoma FD. Now is a restaurant/tavern sort of establishment. Very cool. The stalls where the horses were are now sittin' booths. Lots of antique firefighting gear. It's something of a Tacoma landmark.

You're an hour from Gig Harbor up there.... and since it's Friday, definately head south as early as you can! We'll be hanging out a good few+ hours.
