Yeah, the Viking Bank always cracked me up too. And the cupcake bakery is near the Ballard branch. I am forlorn that my new abode lacks a cupcake bakery. (Next trip to Seattle: downtown indie bookstore, cupcake bakery, Ethiopean food.)
That's cool about the Celtic guy who joined your org for that reason; sensible of him. While I have occasionally-to-often bemoaned the vexatious contentiousness of most Celts and its inevitable and well-attested effects on any type of organization, it's refreshing and pleasant to see someone trying to do something productive about it rather than my default response of "argh I'm not your mother".
