Seattle Celebrates International Pillow Fight Day April 3
Who has two thumbs and loves a great pillow fight? This gal Everyone! OK, maybe not everyone (and maybe not people who don't have thumbs) but a lot of people in Seattle are like me and love pillow fights, so I'm anticipating a big turnout for this event. There will be a great big pillow fight at Westlake Center Plaza in Downtown Seattle on April 3 from 2pm - 3pm. April 3 is International Pillow Fight Day.
How do you participate? All you have to do is show up at Westlake Center at 2pm on April 3, bring a soft pillow, and commence pillow fighting with other people who are holding pillows. More information can be found on the Facebook event page for the International Pillow Fight Day: Seattle.
Science Fuses with Stand-Up Comedy
What does a person do after they spend years studying biology and eventually get a Ph.D in ecology and evolution? You probably are not going to guess such a person would become a stand-up comedian, but that is the case for Tim Lee. In fact, he claims his career path makes perfect sense. Lee explains:
I used to give talks in front of smart people who'd try to pick apart my logic. Now I give talks in front of drunk people who try to pick apart my jokes. The drunken audience is easier to please but more violent when disappointed.
Lee's style of comedy is accessible to both nerds and non-nerds, so anyone can enjoy his show. Meaning, you do not have to have a Ph.D. in ecology to understand his jokes. You can find a couple of videos of portions of his show on Tim Lee's YouTube channel.
Tim Lee is playing at the Jewelbox Theater April 2 and 3 at 8pm. Tickets are $20. More info and buy advanced tickets online.
