My engineering mentor from Parsons Transportation Group recently left his job for a position in Middle Earth itself, New Zealand. I'm actually quite saddened...well, as far as one man can lament over another man's absence.
However, he has left in my possession something which I have now come to affectionately refer to as "the chick-tionary." And by "chick," I mean "an Excel spreadsheet containing a VERY comprehensive list of Happy Hour places in Seattle." (original credit goes out to Karen Rogers for first establishing said spreadsheet)
It truly is a powerful tool in that it breaks down the 150+ different restaurants by region, foods, prices, times, location, phone #, and most importantly, rating.
And that is where y'all come in.
As you read this, I'm sending the "the latest and greatest" copy of said Happy Hour Guide to every frakkin gmail /hotmail / .edu address; I'm taking it on faith that if enough ppl provide their own input on said spreadsheet (updates, add'tl locations, etc.), together we can distribute a fairly definitive list amongst our fellow peers ....
OR you can pawn it off as your OWN work and take ALL the credit (lol, I was totally going to do that, but Lan convinced me otherwise....curses...).
Besides, I am but one man, and the Seattle Happy Hour scene is NOT but JUST 150+ restaurants, total. If left to its own devices, the guide will surely atrophy and dissolve into irrelevance (if it hasn't already...lol).

I heart happy hour.
My roommate and I are constantly on the prowl to find new and amazing ones in Seattle. Last week we checked out Dragonfish: $2.95 sake, beer and cocktail specials, $1.95 sushi half rolls and $2.95 "small plates." It was... meh. It was super crowded when we arrived at 5:10 but we managed to squish in at the very small bar. The cocktails were yummy but the sushi was pretty "fishy" for my taste. I don't think I'd go back.
But I'm definitely open for recommendations!
