Professional Massage Therapy in Downtown Seattle
From the category archives:
I went to a wedding reception in South Seattle last night. It was a great party, a very eclectic crowd spread out throughout a classically updated old Seattle house. A couple of hours into the festivities, a familiar-looking guy walked up an greeted me. It was my old friend Rob H., a guy I met [...]

Wow! Just when you thought the Sunday-night African music scene at Hidmo couldn’t possibly get any better, Mohammed Shaibu and company start tearing it up. Tonight’s show was some of the most inspired African music ever to grace a Seattle stage (not that there’s actually a stage at Hidmo, which is part of the appeal).
Mohammed [...]

My neighbor Griggs told me about a nice house-share available for rent in Wedgewood. I went over to check it out and in the course of my conversation with Aaron, the owner, I discovered that he works part-time in an office on the same floor as my new massage office in the Medical Dental Building.

Once again, my worlds collide. Earlier today I was chatting with Rand Fishkin at the SMX Advanced conference. It was fun to finally connect with the local search engine marketing wizard (and former office neighbor of my friend Danielle). I wasn’t star-struck, but it was a little surreal having a face-to-face [...]

Well, that was interesting. I just spent the past few weeks as a “Compassion Ambassador Concierge,” offering customer service to major sponsors of the Seeds of Compassion.
This was a truly unique event. It spanned five days and engaged children, parents, care-givers, teachers, curriculum developers, scientists, policy-makers, politicians, business people, philanthropists, religious leaders, and [...]

I hate it when people start a blog and then drop off the face of the earth. And now here I am doing just that. Not that any of these are necessarily reason enough to deprive you of my breathless prose, but here’s what’s cooking in Larry-land that’s keeping me from posting much lately:
Heavy-duty volunteering [...]

A few years back it seemed like every other “Stop for Me – It’s the Law” sign in town had been altered to add a claw to the pedestrian’s hand and a “C” in front of “Law.” I snapped the photo at right on 39th Street in Fremont a couple of years ago.

At this point in the development of web savvy-ness, most of us have developed pretty good instincts about what we can trust on the web. But still I wonder. . .
There’s an old Doonesbury cartoon about the knucklehead journalist Roland Burton Hedley. During a visit to the Walden commune, Zonker convinces Hedley, among [...]

I believe that the Bartell drugstore here in the Medical Dental Building is the original one in that chain. In any case, it still employs a couple of cashiers who look like they may have been around back in the middle part of the 20th Century. Everyone there is friendly and helpful, but I find [...]

The music in Lara McIntosh’s Sunday-morning Wassa Dance class has been really hot lately. This morning, though,Thierno Diop took it up a notch with some of the wildest djembe phrasing I’ve ever heard.
It was improv as always. I was playing a modified Soli Rapide sangban part on my dununba and kenkeni:

I’ve decided to move all of my various blogs to one central location here at LarrySwanson.com. Over the years, I’ve managed to write blog entries in at least three different places. I’ll be migrating all of the old posts over to this WordPress blog over the next few weeks, so you will suddenly see a [...]
