  0 0 Actually, we were home, which is why my wife (and kids) are freaked out. Apparently lots of houses in north cap hill have been hit lately, always while the owners are home. That's why the officer suggested a gun... Gus Avery commented 8 months ago

  Best beef chow fun in Seattle?

  0 0 I've got to say, this chow fun question is really important. I used to try the chow fun everywhere: beef, chicken, bbq pork, etc. It always verged on terrible. I gave up. It was good in L.A., good in Vancouver, but never in Seattle. For a time Wild Ginger had an excellent mixed seafood chow fun. But it was quite pricey and how often can you go there? So, I hope you find it and shout about it from the top of Smith Tower, because I've failed. (You can buy the fresh noodles around town and some cookbooks, like Pei Mei, have recipes. There's that route) I don't think I've been to Hing Loon, but I'll try it. Gus Avery answered in Eating Out 9 months ago Answer, comment & read 6 more answers »

  Know a good VW mechanic?

  2 0 Maybe I'm kind of fancy, but the guys at Car Tender on 12th (not too far from Stranger world) really do a great job. They work on a lot of fancy European rigs, which is probably why they are experts. Gus Avery answered in Cars & Motorcycles 10 months ago Answer, comment & read 3 more answers »

  How should I plant these potatoes?

  0 0 grow them in an old trash can (drain holes punched in bottom) or a tube of chicken wire. Start them in the bottom and keep adding shredded paper, compost, soil, whatever as the leaves climb. By late summer you'll have a column full of spuds. Harvest during flowering for new potatoes, or wait another month for bigguns' Gus Avery answered in Edibles & Herbs 10 months ago Answer, comment & read 3 more answers »
