All The News

-Tim Eyman's car tab initiative ain't gonna make it on the ballot which makes him 0-3 lately: No car tab initiative, no legally mandated bigotry and his Vader costume was nowhere near as funny or as cool as Cee-lo's.
-The Seattle Times photog who got hit in the head by a baseball is alive and well enough to recount the ordeal in all its terrible detail ("They tell me I convulsed on the ground for about a minute. I don't remember that"). And he's back at work.
-Tonight is First Thursday and there are already a lot of people set up in the newly reopened Occidental Square Park. We stopped in today and it looks exactly the same as it used to (photos tomorrow).
-Woodland Park Zoo has designated their South Entrance as the place to pay respects to any crocodile hunters who may have recently taken a stingray whip to the heart.
-Condos going up adjacent to Ravenna Park get the thumbs up from FoS.
-There was a positive development in the life of the woman who was once a P-I reporter and a spy, which is a change as you can imagine.
