They only way to properly honor Sunset Bowl is to have a bar downstairs with Pull-tabs and bottles of Bud shaped like bowling pins, a parking lot full of transients and teenagers, the local Ballard Beat Cop Jim Johnson on patrol and Karaoke. I'm guessing that units upstairs from this hot-mess will rent for about 2 pesos per square foot.

3rd and Seneca, where the woman shot the man, isn't "Belltown". We're rough, but Downtown gets the credit for this crime.

So I was watching the Seattle Channel a bit ago and saw a special about concealed weapons and safety. I feel safer. She couldn't recall if the spitting was before or after he was shot. I mean come the fuck on, there was no need to use a gun, kick the fucker in the balls first. Christ people... this isn't Utah.
