Seattle Scot here as well. Sort of. Third generation.
Clan Grant–craig elachie!
I’ve been to the Highland Games a couple times. Right next to the pickle factory. Cool stuff, if heavily commercialized. Everyone wants to sell you a piece of your clan tartan. Funny thing is, they all seem to be a different pattern.
Leaving L.A. on the 8th, and I’ll be on the midnight flight to B’ham. Hanging out on the 9th. Shooting on the 10th. Victoria, B.C. on the 11th/12th, and back to Hell-A Monday afternoon.
We’re shooting there because that’s where he lives. We did most of it last September, but we need another scene. It’s pretty wacky. Sort of a “science-experiment-goes-awry” thing with comedic characters (“Captain Happy”, whose head is a big “smiley face”), conspiracies, and a seven-foot-tall black robot. Hahahaha!
I love B’ham too. Not too big, nice weather, neat buildings, there’s a cute waitress at Arlis’s diner (though I’ve never talked to her), close to Vancouver, B.C., The Pickford… I’m lobbying to get my desk moved to our Bothel office, and if I’m successful I’ll have to live near there; but I really like B’ham. (Kinda far from Hoquiam though… I have a female friend there.) If I’m not successful relocating my desk, I’m thinking of just quitting. My best fiend said I could roommate with him in B’ham.
