KOMO - Seattle, WA : Seattle\'s plastic bag ban takes some by surprise | Local & Regional | Seattle News, Weather, Sports

Mon, 2 Jul 2012 01:04:15 +0000

I hope it doesn't hit Kent, either. We reuse our plastic bags for all the same things you do. Plus, when taking dogs for walks, hair coloring projects, packing things away in the garage for the season (holiday stuff), and so much more. Whenever I've used the reusable bags I've found no one at the stores can pack them properly. They either pack like one thing per bag or make them so heavy, the handles nearly snap.

Oh, no! The drones *may* fly over my backyard and see me gardening. Oh, the humanity!

Thank you and exactly. I saw this article and thought "gee, how else can the media perpetuate (unfounded) fear?"

This was in my area - Misty Meadows. Right on the other side of the cross street from me. I heard and saw the helicopter but didn't realize how close it was. I'm glad my neighbors weren't home when it happened! (and yes, stamperzann - Kent East Hill no plural)

Thank you for saying *exactly* what many of us are thinking. The majority does not get to decide the rights and privileges of the minority. Apparently, we've forgotten this.

And you have confirmation of this from where/whom exactly?

As my daughter said earlier today, "Homosexuality is found in many hundreds of species. Homophobia is found in only one. Which one seems unnatural now?"

Sigh. Please learn to read. Wa_mtn_man said " You don't see any other gay animal." I informed him that this is incorrect.

If you have a problem with Wikipedia, here's a medical news article from 2006 stating pretty much the same thing: http://www.news-medical.net/news/2006/10/23/20718.... Clearly you're more than a bit homophobic. But that's ok :) Just means I won't have to deal with the likes of you while shopping at Target!

Another great reason to shop at Target :)

Wrong. Homosexuality in the animal kingdom is actually very common - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexual_behavior_...

KOMO - Seattle, WA : New $20 license tab fee for Metro begins Friday | Transportation | Shoreline News

Let me get this straight: bus fares have increased by quite a lot recently; they've eliminated several routes so now it's nearly impossible for me or my teens to locate a bus within walking distance on many days; I own and use a car so I'm going to be penalized for this but as a very sad "thank you", they'll give me bus tickets I probably won't be able to use? Um, thanks Metro?

I have a son who has been selected for the gifted program every year since 1st grade (he's in 6th now). Yet, this year he scored exceedingly low in math. The issue? His complete boredom with the curriculum being currently presented. I have no faith in the standard test versus the actual teaching in the classroom.

Isn't funny how if the quote doesn't bend to what they wish, suddenly it's misquoted or misused?

Because, oddly enough, there are a lot of theists out there with some bizarre obsession with pedophilia.

Being heterosexual is natural to *you*. Being homosexual is natural to those who are homosexual. I mean, unless you've actually experienced being homosexual, who are you to decide what is natural and what isn't? Unless, of course, you're going to use the ol' "God says so" bit of fluff. In which case, I suggest you go by *all* of what "God" says to do :)

You're correct. I said the population of WA state. I didn't say registered voters. With the registered voters number plugged in we get...a whole whopping nearly 2% :)
