I hate polls. Oh, you know the ones. The ones that like to be brandished across the headlines of newspapers across the country telling everyone else how you and I feel. Funny, but I don’t know how they do it. They have never asked me. Oh sure, I am asked about...

As we know, I’m not a big fan of the whole zombies thing. I guess I just don’t get the fascination. It’s not that I don’t believe in zombies, for the proof they exist lies right here in Washington State. And no, it’s not the...

I know what you’re going to say. It should be college. But collage sounds so much more upscale, like being a valet or a concierge. I am a product of the state educational system. I got to go to college when it was really expensive, $83 a quarter for a full load....

I’m sure if you’re a political nutcase you think I’m talking about being a Republican. I’m not. As we all know, I am neither an elephant or a jackass in the classical sense, though there are several significant and insignificant others in my...

I can’t seem to do anything simple. I blame my father for this, since he couldn’t seem to do anything simple either. Even the most straightforward thing had to become entirely complex, largely because he was a man of ideas, but not always of action. Well,...

Having been away from Seattle for a time, I’ve been trying hard to get into the vibe again. It’s good to know that the Seattle Weekly rag is still around, as is The Seattle Times. But new since I left the Emerald City are the two magazines that are...
