Things to do in Seattle?

[_Quasimodo]

Yeah. I brings a tear to my just thinking of those hardworking girls carrying the weight of an entire city on their backs.[/quote]

WHILE on their backs?

Seattle's past was delightfully colorful. For example, Seattle's early census data reveals that approximately 10% of the population identified themselves as 'seamstresses'. The income of Seattle's seamstresses was subject to the local 'Entertainment Tax'. There was a stretch of several years where the Entertainment Tax accounted for 90% of Seattle's revenues, thanks largely to the popularity of gambling tables and seamstresses.

This information has me pondering the lyrics of the old TV theme song, and wondering if there are some hidden meanings in there:

The bluest sky you've ever seen, in Seattle.
And the hills the greenest green, in Seattle.
Like a beautiful child
Growing up, free and wild.
Full of hopes and full of fears,
Full of laughter, full of tears,
Full of dreams to last a year
In Seattle.

When you find your own true love you will know it
By his smile, by the look in his eyes.
Some set pine trees in the air
Or some stand around and stare
Look out everyone, Here Come the Brides.
