zaterdag 21 april 2012 On this day. 1962 – The Century 21 Exposition, the first world's fair in the United States since World War II, opened in Seattle. Thanks for the recognition, Wikipedia. Up at 12:34. Decide to do a load of laundry since I'm awake at a silly hour. After the laundry, I turn on DW-TV. Some two million Turkish people live in Germany. Here's a look at one family and how three generations feel about each other.

Manage to fall back to sleep. Up with the sun. Leftovers for breakfast. A little bit of everything. Bath. Listen to Wait, Wait. Long walk around Capitol Hill. Shop at Trader Joe's. There seem to be a lot of runners out. Drop off stuff at my place. Watch a little France 24. Interview with Jean-Luc Dehaene - member of the European Parliament representing the European People's Party. He seems like a pleasant person.

The sunshine beckons to me. OK! I need to visit the Seattle Center for its 50th. #33 bus up. Get off on Broad Street - Pacific Science Center. I wander.


They should put carbon emissions signs on I-5... but Seattlites don't really care about their environment. 22,385,897 metric tons, King County, by New Years Eve. Watch Space 1999: The Last Sunset. I love that weird blue planet in the background.
Next! MST3K: The Leech Woman. Poor Satellite Of Love. The Satellite is still broken, so the gang appeals to the Nanites. They're on strike.
An endocrinologist in a dysfunctional marriage with an aging, alcoholic wife journeys to Africa seeking a drug that will restore youth.
