| I've seen many-a-dunks and many-a-dunkers in my years of playing ball and just being a fan of basketball - 5'9 white boys at the gym getting up, Vince Carter dunking it nasty on the best in the NBA, and of course through the stacks of AND1 Mixtapes on my shelf. Females have even started coming onto the scene (ever so slowly and barely - like BARELY getting off the ground...haha j/k). I thought I'd pretty much seen it all....until tonight when I was exposed to the best dunk videos YouTube has to offer (thanks, stinks!;)....
(just click on the links - I couldn't get the stupid videos to upload onto here...)
Today's Top 3:

| I was in Seattle this past weekend for my friend's wedding tmac6. It was really my first time in Seattle (not counting the time I drove through with my family when I was really young), so it was quite exciting to go to a new city and completely not know the place, besides, of course, visiting with old friends, most of whom I haven't seen for about 5 years. Here are some pics from the trip:
Two things we wanted to hit (besides the wedding, of course =) were the stadium tours of where the Mariners (Safeco Field) and Seahawks (Qwest Field) play:

The famous Pike's Place Farmer's Market: 
The famous stand in Pike's where they throw fish - literally (huge ones, too!):

Oftentimes, we found ourselves literally in the middle of nowhere because of a wrong turn or accidentally getting on one of the many highways which allow no turning back. Here, we found ourselves in the city of Aurora (sp?) on a street called....you guessed it....Aurora. Now, you KNOW you're in the middle of nowhere when you see a sign like this one: 
View from the base of the Space Needle...pretty cool: 
and, the wedding......tray-z's dress was quite beautiful:
