Well, no happy hour here, but I had to mention this place. It will rock your world with hard-to-find beer and wine selections. Select brews, wines, mead, etc.. are showcased via 'tasting events' offered monthly. Erika knows her products and makes this place special. This is a MUST VISIT for anyone whom seeks new stuff to try.. or seeking a great gift. 5909 S. Airport Way Seattle, WA. 98108 / 206-763-2079 www.fullthrottlebottles.com

Living Social.. these guys are on to something..
27 May 20 - 7am -Steve
www.livingsocial.com/deals/ -One evening you'll just want to go somewhere new.. but slightly cringe at thoughts of expense trying something new. Hey, it's the economy.. everyone's crhinging a bit.. so how to help you out of this tragedy? The peeps at LivingSocial mix up food deals with local Seattle venues at basically happy hour pricing. Check'em out for coupons to spur you out the door for your next dining adventure.

18.June09 - 3:30pm -Nick B.
Well, in talking with a lady at the Greenlake bar and grill, it suddenly occurred to me I had not done a few updates ..mostly additions I've been collecting (there are more coming too). Thanks Inga... and kick butt at that Triathalon in a few weeks! (she has been swimming across greenlake) - Cool.

The 2009 TELUS Ski and Snowboard Festival was not to be missed! Arrived within the last three days, all went great, and Ken and HulaStan were a hoot to ski with in sunny blue sky every day! Photos over there -->

With the promise of 'More Bars in More Places' ...
SBF admin guy Steve changed cel provider to AT&T !

New Happyness in North Seattle!
07.Jan.09 - 10:04a -SBF
Sure, The Saffron Grill is a new North Seattle spot serving Indian and Mediterannean fare.. and the food is terrific. But I gotta say, once inside, I was greeted by everyone... and even the owner visited my table to say hi. -Amazing cozyness! Read more in the North Seattle link above.


Bad economy?
Finacials have dunked, but happy hours are looking better than ever to soothe your wallet woes ...and a perfect boost for your holiday social life!
08.Dec.08 - 5:33p -Steve
Finacial portfolios have tanked, but I gotta admit, happy hours are still looking pretty darn good. Big updates to the list include Ivar's has caved into costs and increased their prices. Happy food is still a great bagran, but nothing like the bargans we had before. Rats. Still, no reason to sit at home and sob... So get out there!

New table of Happy Hour links!
-that BarFly finally got some'in done.
04.Oct.08 - 4:10a -SBF
A few changes that make sense! -Why not have a nifty table of happy hours by neigborhood? That should improve your finding some happyness.. enjoy.

01.July.08 - 11:00pm -Mar
Ok.. just imagine your old Skill saw on wheels.. yep, that's what Power Tool Races were like. Side-by-side fun! Georgetown just went nutz with art, dance, music, and well.. fun! Enjoy pix over there -->

Random Thoughts... Walking and Beer.
12.May.08 - 2:30pm -Steve
Rodney-T e-mailed a nifty study about walking and beer; 'A recent study found the average American walks about 900 miles per year. Another study found Americans drink, on average, 22 gallons of beer a year... So the average beer-drinking American gets about 41 miles to the gallon.' - Kind of makes you proud to be an American - yes?
Food for thought indeed.
That cat Rodney is on it.. Thanks man.

2008 Seattle Maritime Festival - Tug Boat Races !
10.May.08 - 11:30pm -SBF
This annual event really stirs up the water in Elliott Bay and everyone simply has a great time ! Only thing that was missing was an Irish coffee ! Pier 70 was the photo spot.. see'm over there -->

2008 Cinco de Mayo -at Alpental Ski Area, WA.
05.May.08 - 10:30pm -Guest

A note about a new face- Meet Morgan The Cat.
07.Sept.06 - 1:30am -Nick
Nick here, I call him Captian Morgan -just like the rum. Ya see, that-little-cat is gonna be one of those sailboat cats. May even get fitted for a skull & crossbones bandanna, even a life vest. Now, we must be patient... cause atthe moment, it seems Morgan can't find his beer again, and he's mak'in a big deal over it too.
Youngsters.

....'Hey dude! ... like, uh,... turn around! '

Man... young cats these days.
