Ben Huh is the boss-man of I Can Has Cheezburger, an international blog phenomenon you might be familiar with through the quotable misspelled cutenesses of Lolcats. Because Huh's already explained why lolcats exist, we had some other questions for the man--yes, including his thoughts on sandwiches. I hear you are the fastest growing Seattle-based blog right now. Do you have plans for world domination? Not sure who measures the fastest growing Seattle blogs, so......

Fircrest, Washington, is a bedroom community of Tacoma that's just a little bit bigger than Central Park. It was developed in the twenties by Edward Bowes, who later gained national fame as the host of Major Bowes' Amateur Hour, a radio forerunner of American Idol (Frank Sinatra's career took off after he won). Sunday was the first time we'd ever been to Fircrest. Sunday was the first time we'd ever heard of Fircrest. We went......

Seventeen teams showed up at the Old Pequliar last night to see if our voice would give out. We managed to get through the evening without having a Peter Brady moment, but we're grateful to those of you who were willing to step up to the mic at a moment's notice. We thought we'd produced a slightly more difficult quiz than usual, but we were proven wrong -- every team got 40 or more......

Donte's blurb for Man Man is "warpaint!"; our motto for the fun-time Philly circus band is "everybody hits something!" Regardless, the "Viking-vaudeville punk-wop rock-and-soul collective" consistently puts on a great live show. Last night at Neumo's, even their sound check was awesome, and that was way before they donned the all-white outfits and face paint. In fact, the over-the-top performance is so central to Man Man's appeal that we don't even bother to listen......

The Hugo House Literary Series kicks off Friday night with "Lost in Translation," and the program features Seattlest-favorite and monologist Mike Daisey, novelist Randall Keenan and historian Lesley Hazleton. We don't know why Seattle ever lets Daisey leave, once we've got him here. He's ours! We should just band him or do that thing like with dogs where they are electronically forbidden to leave the yard. Daisey, et al, have each produced three new pieces......

We ford the Tolt River at Carnation and sail into a vast theme park called Remlinger Farms. Indoors, a country market......
