Was just thinking about the old Burnside and Outside In back in the day. There were some great characters back then. Wonder whatever happened to some of those folks like Bishop, Skytiz, Dancer and Tabby. I know several people I knew either od, contracted HIV or died. Caught many a freight out of that damn town and always nice to wander back in to the square or tweaker park and see people I knew...Oh the joys of getting older.25 cent cups of coffee and Nordstroms and staying warm in the morning on the top floor of the Galleria.

Hah... this took me the fuck back ! I worked at Greenhouse in the late 90's, before they closed it in response to us unionizing with the IWW. My BBF still works at outside In. I used to hang out at Greenhouse in the early 90s. We prolly know each other :)
