Seattle and Portland are in a race to see who will be the first to ban plastic bags:
Portland’s mayor said Wednesday that he plans to ban plastic bags, a move that might make some Seattle activists tinge green with envy.
They might wonder: How come they get to do it, and we don’t?
Hope you’re as happy as this girl after Ichiro touched after whilst chasing thine foul ball.

Jasper has a “Duck Hunter”. Wish we could tag this with ‘things I wish I was joking about.’
If you have any trouble finding parking this morning, feel free to select any spot between my front teeth.

Jasper debuted it’s brand new disc golf course yesterday, and they pulled out all the stops. You think I’m joking.
Following the event, participants got to learn more about disc golf from Tom Monroe, a national world champion whose artistry with a flying disc earned him a Guinness World Record.
Let me get this straight: The town without one espresso-centric coffee shop has found enough public dollars and public support to develop a disc golf course.
Jasper, you never cease to entertain me.
Make no mistake, disc golf is a blast. And if the Jasper Park & Rec starts weekend tournaments in the college football and men’s/women’s softball off season, people will show. Wait. What was that?
“…more tournaments to be held at the 18-hole course are being planned.”
I’ll pay good money for a ‘2010 Jasper, Alabama Disc Golf Champion’ t-shirt.
Aside from crafting the most vague Santa Letter ever, I’m not sure if my drawing helped or hindered Santa in his quest to meet my demands.
Mom found this letter to Santa while cleaning out some old boxes the other day. Evidently I wanted a Christmas tree, a donkey with rabbit ears, a floating piece of macaroni, a gingerbread man with elephantiasis, a gift wrapped by a blind man, and a… I actually don’t know what that thing on the far left was.
Should you use it around your friends, feel free to claim it as you own.
Spotted this interesting posting on a telephone pole in Fremont over the weekend.
Yes, Jaguar.

I know my odd Mariners love affair seems to have begun when I moved to Seattle. Truth is, I’ve been a Mariner fan for years. “Fan” may be an odd word. “Avid follower” might be more appropriate.
Stumbled across this SI cover of Jay Buhner & son last night. One of my favorites.
Quick background:
- I hate Duke - not as much as I hate Alabama football, but close.
- My coworker is the former drum major for Duke’s pep band.
- I voice my displeasure for Duke via Facebook and Twitter last night.
I arrive to find my desk has already been visited, and a banner hangs.
This is brilliant and perfect for any LOST party you might be hosting. My favorite are the Pringles cans.
