And the skies are obediently clearing for the Jimmy Hendricks* Manpurse Happy Hour on the lovely rooftop deck of downtown's Hard Rock Cafe, starting at 5 p.m.! That's an hour and a quarter, give or take, from right now.

Lots of people from the office will be there: Mary Traverse, David Schmader, Paul Constant, Grant Brissey, Cienna Madrid, Dominic Holden, and more, more, MORE!

And, of course, the manpurse. And the drink specials. See you soon!

*While a certain deceased Seattle rock star's manpurse will be available for commemorative photos, for legal reasons, this happy hour is named after Seattle non-rock-star James Hendricks.
