Posted Bill Maher's Religulous Is Kinda Weak Sauce to Seattlest
A couple Seattlest haters made it to the Guild 45th last week for a preview screening of Religulous (starting its run this Friday at the Neptune). This is definitely worth checking out, despite the weak moments, like when Maher asks some religious guy, "If heaven's so great, why don't you just kill yourself now?" Lame and inane! Organized religion really is comedy gold, like Maher says, but it would be a hell of a lot...
Posted Attack of the Crows, Part II to Seattlest
You can't tell from this cellphone shot, but this crow seen here is eating a dead rat that it brought to the top of this downtown Seattle light pole. The crow methodically stabbed its beak in to the rat carcass repeatedly and with vehemence between bites.

Cue that awful Contempt theme music, whatever it's called, that plays over and over again throughout the movie. Homme Seattlest-Hater: What is a...
Posted Rumored Queen Anne Prank to Seattlest
Some guy at a bar last night told Seattlest that some friends of his got city approval for a public art prank in Queen Anne yesterday. He said that they set up some bogus construction site with a big painting of the city skyline obstructed by a new tram to take Queen Anne residents in to downtown. The painting supposedly listed the cell phone number of one of the pranksters. Guess we can expect an...
