- West Seattle Blog marveled over a pair of orcas playing off Alki Point yesterday.
- Both MyBallard and Fremont Universe are wondering if the streetcar will be coming to their neighborhoods.
- Capitol Hill Seattle warns that the most dangerous stretch of road for bicyclists on Capitol Hill is on E. Pine, between Summit and Melrose.
- Watch out for this scam if you live in Ballard: a man posing as a Seattle P-I newspaper carrier robbed an elderly woman after asking her for a glass of water. When the helpful newspaper reader went to get the guy a glass of water, he grabbed $130 from her purse and took off.
- It's time for "Santa Claws" photos of your furry friends. That's right, this weekend your pet can pose for a photo with Santa at the Seattle Animal Shelter in Interbay. We won't be there, because our cats would murder us in our sleep after they maimed Santa, but maybe your better-behaved pet won't.
- Yet another reason we wish we were heading to D.C. for the inauguration--the other Washington's bars will be open till 5 a.m. from January 17th to the morning after the inauguration.
