Major changes to King County Metro Our local public transit system is making some major changes in 2010. Along with the usual fare increase (its $0.25 this time), they’re also switching everything over to the new ORCA card system. I ordered mine and added a PugetPass online.

Organizer of Green Lake Naked Pumpkin Run charged with indecent exposure in relation to West Seattle event
Remember the Green Lake Naked Pumpkin Run? The organizer of the the Naked Pumpkin Run has been charged with indecent exposure for the role he played in organizing a similar event in West Seattle. What are your thoughts? Are events like these (a.k.a. naked events) indecent? Harmful to children who witness them? Awesome performance art? An important political statement? Are you looking forward to seeing these folks in Green Lake again next Halloween … or do you hope the long arm of the law reaches over here too?
