Excavators are our favorite pieces of heavy construction equipment. They are the most churlish. They throw destructive tantrums with their Trogdor-like arm as their hydraulic motors exude that sweet sweet mechanical whine. On the other hand, we hate that they frequently, callously, and disrespectfully knock down things we like. In this case, Seattle's lost another fine 24-hour joint.
