There's an eyeglasses fetishist loose on Capitol Hill! Seattle 911 alerts us that a witness to Saturday night's eyeglasses theft at Neighbours says the suspect has stolen nine pairs of cheaters before. Nine coke-bottles taken does not a fetish make, so we're not sure where that part of Seattle 911's article came from, but it's a funny picture: some white, 140 lb. man with bleached hair sitting on the floor at home, surrounded by nine pairs of trendy-framed spectacles, increasingly excited by the idea that nine people are now more blind than they were before he snatched their goggles. Some therapist is gonna love that one.

According to the Times, a guy set himself on fire over in Red Square at the University of Washington this afternoon! He is still alive, 61 years of age, and not on fire anymore. Authorities haven't figured out why he did it, though they found a lab coat and a pair of goggles on the ground by him and it has been determined that he soaked himself in gasoline beforehand. Update: He died later this afternoon. Thanks to Wesa for the new info.
