Two years! By the grace of @Montoya , I made it!
Not only that, but I am also Admiral now! Does this mean I can invoke my Admiral status to take all the beers?
I live 20 minutes from the Oregon state line and I am happy for the division and to be on the Washington side.
Fun fact:
The first settlement in what would become Washington State (Tumwater, WA - 1846) was founded because of the racist settlement laws in Oregon.
