"Sam Slides," by Seattlest Flickr contributor wedgwoodblog A few years back, we braved a soccer match between two top flight teams in Buenos Aires. A 'super-classico' as they call it. Barbed wire and riot police ringed the field and more than once a cannon was fired. The tension was palpable. Early in the match, the visiting goalkeeper was hit in the head with what the papers later reported was a keychain. Bleeding, the goalkeeper was......

It's a glorious 5-mile view of the Seattle skyline back when the Alaska Building was the tallest building in town—and yes, we had to look that up. (Then came the Hoge Building, then Smith Tower, for all you architecture wonks.)......

"Goose Family and the Barge" by seattlerealtorgal The slightly washed-out colors, graininess, and hazy skyline make Seattle look like some busy, grimy, Pacific-rim, port town with its fair share of insane scooter traffic, plentiful street-corner smokables, bawdy merchant marine conscripts, and bargain-priced sodomy.
