Seattle, Washington - Center of the Universe

As I was cruising your, shall we say... "insomniac's web dream" set of sights I realised that when you went through Seattle you COMPLETELY bypassed the center of the universe — Fremont. Seriously! as you enter the area there is a sign that says "Entering the Republic of Fremont, the center of the Universe, set your watch back five minutes." [Paulie, 06/14/1998]
