Dark Helmet from Spaceballs. Reminds me of a Samurai.
Lol...I was at the Seattle Airport, and there, in the food court, is a fast food place called Maki of Japan. My family and I always eat at that place when we stop by Seattle.
Btw, I think your city is beautiful. Especially the landscape---mountains and sea combination, and the interesting lush trees---I love trees. Edmonton where I live is boring---a veritable, redneck prairie "hick town", or as one writer once described it---"the backlot of a metal scrap factory." Lol.

Dark Helmet: I am your father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate.
Bearded Lady: I'm the Bearded Lady. Who are you, one of the freaks?

Dark Helmet: Get out of my escape pod you bearded bitch!
Hahah. Yeah. Washington is beautiful, yeah. Many parts of it. I plan on moving to a more beautiful part of it than where I am right now. Oh, well, heh, yeah, "the backlot of a metal scrap factory"...have you ever thought of moving to a nicer area?

Lol. I've thought about moving to Victoria (Vancouver Island), but only when I retire. Sigh.

It is such an odd word, I think. The longer I look at the word, the odder it looks. Lol.

You know MRSHINSHOES, there are a lot of odd-looking words! I never questioned my spelling of them; but sometimes I look at them and think, it just doesn't look right!
