Many times, on Monday afternoons, we'll put up a nice video to calm you down and cheer you up. But often, the adorable, wonderful stars of these videos aren't available for you to actually meet and befriend. But today is different. In honor of Memorial Day (?), we've found a video of an actual adoptable kitty from Shilshole Bay Pet Rescue, a small group of foster homes.

Can't Miss It: Weekend Edition, Nov. 7-9
HALF-NAKED BOOTY GIRLS: The 2 Live Crew outta Miami is at Nectar tonight, and you know what that means: half-naked booty girls, according to local emcee Wizdom. "I believe it," he told us with anticipation. The 2 Live Crew has been holding down the sexually explicit end of hiphop since the '80s. Warning: there might be juggalos present. Locals Mad Rad, Champagne Champagne, and Jay Barz open for this promisingly profane and colorful evening.
Google Snapshot
Awwww, cute: "Seattlest" as Google search term in 2001. (Try plugging in "Department of Homeland Security," "9/11 Truthers," "Perez Hilton," or "Sarah Palin bikini." Oh how the times have changed!) As a bonus, laugh with us at how chunky Google's logo looked back in the day.
Dope Emporium In Photos
We had a laid-back, happy time at Dope Emporium on Saturday. It felt like a hiphop block party: a family affair with barbeque, a beer garden, and kids running around doing cute things like breakdancing. There even was a producers' battle from which MTK (of Himalayan Rickshaw Run fame) emerged triumphant. Check out some photos from the event, taken by Seattlest and Terry Creighton.
