Neighborhood News and Local Blog Roundup
"The Pumpkins Have Spoken" (and we have, too....Vote!!) by Seattlest Flickr contributor Jay Cox
- Since doing your civic duty (not to mention voting in a historical election) might not be enough to get you to vote today, the Big Blog brings you 7.5 things you can get for free on Election Day.
- Capitalizing on tragedy, local gangs are in the midst of a string of retribution shootings, presumably in response to the shooting we mentioned in yesterday's Neighborhood News. What's that saying? It seemed so trite, but now so true: "two wrongs don't make a right."
- If you live in Phinney Ridge, Wallingford, or Fremont, and you didn't have power yesterday morning, you can blame it on a goose. The bird paid the ultimate price for flying too close to your neighborhood power lines.
- Blayne Walsh of Project Runway made the cover of DList, Subterfuge Seattle reports, and the resulting photo is kinda funny. However, it must be said: that particular shade of pink does wonders for Blayne's skin!
- Did someone say discount wine store?! A new vino shop has opened in Fremont, and it only carries affordable bottles under $25. That makes us very, very happy.
