It seems strange that I've attended several blogger meets around the country but have somehow managed to overlook the major metropolitan city right here in my back yard... SEATTLE!
Well, last night that was finally rectified as the very first Daveattle Blogger Meet-Up was held. Unfortunately, it was kind of last-minute and had to happen on a Sunday, but people were kind enough to show up anyway...
It was a great group of bloggers and a fun meet...
Dinner was most excellent at Capitol Hill's Elysian Brewing Company...
Sizzle, Me, Rick, Kristin, Rick's wife Julie, Tracy, and Tracy's friend Holly
Thanks again to everybody who took time out of their weekend to hang-out with me, and I hope we can do it again next summer!
Meanwhile, on the television front...
This was my last episode of Chuck. How in the hell could such a brilliant concept be so utterly and totally ruined so quickly? I am so f#@%ing tired of Chuck being such a whiny little bitch ALL THE TIME. He has two modes...
Back to work...

it’s like you’ve got me in a strangle-hold – hee hee. it was so much fun. thanks for pulling the gathering together. can’t wait for next time! 😉
Very nice of you to share the Dave-y goodness all around the nation. Be sure to make repeat stops in So-Cal though. 😀
PS: Maybe the point of Chuck is to make you wanna.
I agree about chuck. I havent seen this latest episode, but I doubt it’ll be any diff than the others. The only thing that nearly saves it is the really hot girl spy, the hot sister, and the funny yet really annoying friend.
And when are you gonna come hang out in Portland? Well, besides the last time.
Yeah, I can kinda understand the concerns over Chuck. But we’re still holding out hope that it’ll get better. We still laugh at the show, which is a good thing.
Jealous you met Sizzle… again.
It is always a pleasure to see your blogger-meets ! 😉
P.S. I want to see “Chuck”…
PLEASE someone let me know when *anyone* is going to be in Austin. I’ll host!
And your made up “daveattle” word gives me a few ideas for some movies.
“Daveattlefield Earth” – The Psychlos have taken over the world in post-nuclear earth, and Bad Monkey decides he can learn new technology by faking to be a stupid monkey and gets trained to be a butler but then ends up taking over the world.
“Daveattle of the planets” – a five-member superhero team made up of Dave, Bad Monkey, Liz Hurley, Jared Fogle and Ann Coulter where each weekly episode involves Jared and Ann being killed for some reason (oh my god! they killed Jared and Ann [you bastards!]) and Dave saves the day and gets the girl.
“Daveattle beyond the stars” – the only thing cool about this movie is Dave gets to play the voice of a near-anatomically-correct spaceship captained by John-Boy.
I never got a hug like that from Dave 🙁
Just kidding! These meet-ups are fun. Let’s keep doing them, from coast to coast!
I’m afraid Reaper is headed down the same path.
Somehow that pic looks so Seattle (not that I actually know), and I found myself thinking how Hollywood Lucky Strike is.
Still waiting on someone–anyone–to venture into Northern Michigan for a “meet” like that. Winter’s on it’s way. Wear your tuque and bring your mush doggies! 🙂
Hey! I used to go to the Elysian Fields. How fun.
Yanno….it’s really hard for me to watch Chuck now without hearing the whiny bitch, thanks very much ;).
I think Chuck’s been doing better than Reaper. Reaper’s so ingrained in the MOTW without any real motivation (why does he get weird powers and why won’t the devil tell him where to find the soul?). Chuck’s at least got more interesting stories, and I think Chuck’s character is still pretty cool. After Pushing Daisies, it’s my second favorite new show this season.
Dude, the picture does not capture the awesomeness of Daveattle. Thank YOU.:-)
I’m with you on Chuck. How many times can he trust the new bad spy in town? Didn’t he just do that last week?
Glad you had a good time, Dave – did you drink 78 beers at this meet-up like you did in LA? 🙂
You never hugged my neck like that…
Irony! While you were meeting up with us humble Seattle-folk, I was passing through the eastern parts of our state… and to make matters worse: I love the Elysian…
Finally, a picture of Rick. Y’all look like you’re having mucho grande fun. Come ot Raleigh and I’ve got a whole BUNCHA loggers that will take you out and help abuse your liver.
I missed Avitable’s Halloween party because it was too far away and I miss this one in my own neck of the words, not paying attention as per usual!
