The Lusty Lady is a bit of a landmark in Seattle (and San Francisco). It's prominently located on 1st Avenue and always has a creative saying on it's marquis.  The Lady is female owned co-op and has been around since 1979.  It's basically a peep show, a la the Madonna "Open Your Heart" video.  At least that's what I've heard is going on in there. :)

 Anyway, last night my friend Blake and I went out to see some live music and had a few drinks on 1st avenue.  Imagine my surprise to see this on the marquis at the Lusty Lady:

 Of course, this has nothing to do with the name of this site.  But, what I find really interesting is that it is a reference to the Tom Friedman book "The World is Flat".
