"View of Seattle from the Bainbridge Ferry" by Alan Cordova, from our Flickr pool more ›

The Seattle Times says Lake Forest Police Sgt. Jason Becker found the 27-year-old woman, who has bipolar disorder, outside of Lake Forest Park Market on Ballinger Way Northeast. She was under the impression her car had been stolen from the ferry. Amy Story's car had been found on the 3 p.m. Bainbridge-to-Seattle ferry on Monday, and she was sighted around Seattle a few times before being reunited with her family. more ›

...the Coast Guard is now looking for you in the water. Since it's a Monday, our money is on someone forgetting they drove on. It happens, you get to talking with someone on board, they walk off, you walk off with them. Also, you're very high. Ah, now KOMO says the search is "for the driver of a gold 1999 Mitsubishi Galant, whom they believe is a woman." more ›

The 7:55 Bainbridge-Seattle ferry stopped and began a search after a passenger reported seeing a man overboard, but as KOMO News reports, the sighting on closer inspection was "a log with colored flags attached to it." The Wenatchee got underway again about 8:45 a.m., delivering Bainbridge commuters late to work and with a highly dubious excuse, too. We report this news as a favor to them. We got your back, Bainbridgeans! more ›

• Low tides over in West Seattle brought in odd little creatures of the sea.
• Man, those little suburb islands are making a lot of ruckus lately. First it was Bainbridge and their brothels. Now it's Vashon Island who needs a little rehab, as the use of heroin is on the rise.
• Glad we stuck to our decision not to go to Sasquatch this year. The music good, the rest of the experience sounded like absolute hell.

BICYCLE ROLLING: Pioneer Square's 88 Keys Dueling Piano and Sports Bar is kicking off their roller biking (if that's an appropriate name) tournaments and grudge matches tonight. Wikipedia schooled us on the relevant history: bicycle rolling was originally popular in Britain in the 1950s. It also states that people would normally partake in the rolling matches before watching movies at the cinema (strange), or while waiting in between dances at dance halls (even stranger). Roller racing is still popular in Britain, mainly with the bicycle messenger community, heading tournaments under the name Rollapalooza. Bizarre? Maybe, but we're still curious about this seemingly grueling activity of biking on rollers to the imaginary finish line. 88 Keys will be supplying the bikes, but it is recommended to wear or bring street shoes. more ›

WRITERS GROUP: It's a daylight meetup of the Seattle Writers Group. They're gathering at Greenlake's Revolutions Espresso (across the street from Gregg's Greenlake Cycle) for 45 minutes of writing followed by 15 of discussion. Here is the thing that will help set your writing career on the path: "onsite bakery." It's sort of an insider's thing but behind every great writer is a choice pastry. Joyce=scone with currants and orange peel. True story. more ›

Sometimes we stop to think--for instance while waiting to hear more about the non-credible bomb threat that's halted the Bremerton ferry run this afternoon--about Bainbridge Island. Which is always the way. Bremerton forever gets the short end of the stick. more ›

. Casella, a physician, draws on her intimate knowledge of the health industry to construct a dramatic portrait of the subtleties and complexities of medical malpractice, when a child's death on the operating table sends an anesthesiologist's life into a tail-spin. more ›
