So it has come to my attention through talking with various SGers that an abnormal amount of us live in the state of Washington. Out of game of say 50 people, we'd have like 10 or something. And with the internet being international, that's a high probability. I find it odd that Washingtonians flock to the SG. Perhaps there's something in our water.

There have been 5 sgers from CT, which is a lot considering we are the 3rd smallest state smile
We should have a meetup in WASHINGTON : D I would SO go even though I live in CT. If we do it during the school year I'll be a lot closer though.

I think Roger does, I'll ask him when I see him next.
He and Wren went to the same summer school at one point, before the SG started.

I should move to Washington. But I don't think I will. I like it here and California. ^.^
Ginji In Seattle, women who sit on men's laps on buses or trains without placing a pillow between them face an automatic six-month jail term.
Well what if there is a disturbance in the ride and a women happens to stumble over in the man's lap, and in shock at what just happened she is not quick to get off of him?
Do you guys get lots of rain? I love the rain!

Those are just one of the random laws that no sane police officer would enforce.
WE do get rain. More then lots of places, but probably less then people would think.
It primarily depends on which area of Washington you live in. If you live in Eastern Washington, there's seemingly no rain most of the time. Western Washington has a lot more rain in it.
A problem with Washington weather is that it prompts one of the, if not the, highest suicide rates in the country. It's because Washington likes to be a very gloomy place in the Fall, Winter, and Spring.
It does however have very bipolar weather, especially when the seasons are changing.
At times like that it could be sunny and Eighty Degrees outside, the next it would be raining cats and dogs and forty to fifty degrees out.
Last year a lot of the areas flooded and there was a state of emergency issued. T'was a fun day. :3

Lady Rai I was in Seattle for a portion of this summer helping homeless people. Does that count? I don't know of a lot/any SGers who live in NC anymore. :< (Watch there be a lot of them but I never bothered to ask. D= ) I think.. if my memory serves me right.. When we did that map thingy a while back I think you and I were the only ones that lived in NC. I think I would freeze to death if I lived that far up north.. ^^; I get chilly in 60 degree weather. But I'd imagine you guys get used to that kind of weather quick enough.
