- The heated high school math textbook debate continues. Pretty soon side a., side b. and side c. are all going to resort to throwing TI-86 calculators, protractors, and compasses at each other. (ducking)
- Aaaaaaand we called it. Washington will raise the markup on liquor starting August 1. We will take that horrible news and commence drinking with what's left in our wallets for World Cocktail Week.
- Fed-up with the lame responses to recent car break-ins, Wallyhood marches down to the local Seattle Police Department North Precinct to chat it up with the police captain.

Intiman Theatre Dips into Dostoevsky and Didion
Intiman Theatre runs on a different schedule than other playhouses, which is why they're announcing next season's plays right now. The two that jump out at us are Crime and Punishment (an adaptation by Marilyn Campbell and Curt Columbus) and Joan Didion's The Year of Magical Thinking (based on the only Didion book we didn't love). Sheila Daniels will restage the Dostoevsky--she did it in 2007 at CHAC, where it was a sold-out smash-hit...in an admittedly tiny space. Magical Thinking, as Slate points out, had a difficult time getting to its feet onstage. A lot will ride on the Intiman's choice of performer--luckily Seattle is rich in that regard.
