what do you want to know
the other day i attended the 6th Annual International Slow Pipe-Smoking Competition. It was on the second floor of some palazzo and up there a bunch of old dudes with numbered bibs were sitting around smoking pipes. The rules were that they were allowed three grams of tobacco and three matches, and they were attempting to break the world record of two hours and twenty-five minutes. A crowd sat in rapt attention and periodically broke out in applause when one of the smokers took a particularly subtle puff. After about three minutes I left, but later on I saw one of the old dudes walking around with a big trophy- an honour indeed.
Man, what a weekend.

The other day, a friend made a remark in passing, "Oh yeah, I got those records from Judd."

Is Judd some kind of One Stop Olympia Shop for all music knowledge? A man all should know by first name only like Prince, Cher, Madonna or Shaq?

Thanks for your email, Ryan. Obviously I am unfamiliar with the area! I
think ideally, I would like to be near downtown Seattle. Thank you so
much for your email and good luck finding someone to move into the
room..Also, send me a link to your music if you have one..would love to
check it out!

Thanks,

Jeanie

Hi Jeanie,

Maybe I am mistaken, but it sounds like in your letter you want to move
to an apartment in Seattle? This house is in Olympia, 70 miles south. If
you've never been out here before, I can tell you based on having lived
in both places that Olympia is much better than Seattle and you can
visit Seattle anytime you want due to great public transit and the close
proximity. Olympia is also great if you are college aged as we have a
community college, the Evergreen State College and St. Martin's.

Like mentioned, we are four people here, three men and one woman. We
like computers, music, recording music, I like to build things (a
motorcycle, bike and some electronic projects currently), we ride bikes,
share food and responsibilities.

Let us know a little bit about you and we can arrange to meet up and see
if everyone could live together for the month.

Thanks,

Ryan
