I worked at a gift store just across a small open area from the world famous Space Needle here in Seattle. Two questions from tourists that never failed to amaze and amuse me were, “Where is the Space Needle?” (Honestly, it only looms 610 feet above your head at this very moment.) and “Is this where I get tickets to the Space Needle?” (No, you get them AT the Space Needle. I was tempted sometimes to send them to some remote corner of the Seattle Center in effort to obtain them. Shame on me.)
