On Friday, a small single-engine Cessna found both the ground and a row of port-a-potties abruptly, as the pilot--possibly facing a failed engine--landed short of the runway, crashing his plane into the poo filled potties at Thun Field near Puyallup. The impact of the crash caused the plastic potties to dramatically burst outward--giving explosive diarrhea a whole new meaning. Officials report the potties prevented injury to the pilot and damage to a nearby mobile home area.

We'll be the first to admit Hillary Clinton's embarrassing statement last week (and other occasions), when she recalled RFK's assassination in June of 1968 as an example of things that can happen late in a campaign. We all know there's a possibility the first viable black presidential candidate could get shot. It's been talked about and analyzed and discussed (and, yes, joked about by the other party). But, somehow, to hear another Democratic candidate (one this Seattlest supports) allude to such a tragedy just kind of crossed a line.
