This is no surprise,very few moms seem to recognize how easy it is for a stroller to get away from you.
I realize in this story it was a stroller that was runaway. But,let me tell you,woman jog past my house full tilt flying past driveways and side streets not slowing ....pushing jogging strollers. At the bottom of my hill is Bellevue Way. If the
mom tripped(the sidewalk concrete is sunk and cracked in many places,making tripping a hazard),the racing all terrain jogging stroller would continue down the hill,through to the intersection on Bellevue Way .....where the speed limit is 35 MPH but cars drive at least 5 mph more.
What is wrong with these women...there are trails,school track fields and parks to run on a tear pushing a three wheeled jogging buggy. Why risk pushing a jogging stroller on a busy hill when disaster is inevitable. At least if the racing stroller tipped on a trail,the child would not be tossed in harms way.
These same women strap their precious cargo in car seats when in their vehicles. Yet, they play Russian Roulett with their racing strollers ....bouncing along with the at risk baby ....without a thought to the tragic consequences.

To inflect unimaginable suffering on these two puppies shows a quality of spirit that can only be catorgorized as evil. I pray the deviant twisted person who did this is found and a punishment equal to the crime is imposed. As a society we cannot tolerate the weakest and most vulnerable to be brutalized without consequences.
Whoever is responsible needs to be be feel the public outrage and the shame associated with coercing then torchering one of the most vulnerable among us.

I remember going to the Carnegnie Library in Renton. I was in J.H. when they built the new library over the Cedar River. Then one day not long after i looked in disbelief as we drove by and all that was left of the Carnegie Library was a pile of masonry stones. The current library is just a poor replacement of the original Carnegnie Library... I remember just about everything even down to the subway black and white tile in the bathroom. I hope you take a monument to go to the link to see the treasure Renton once had.

NotesCarnegie Library was the Renton Public Library from 1914 to 1966. The library was built with a $10, 000 grant from Andrew Carnegie and land donated by Rafael Sartori. [source of note: Morda C. Slauson. Renton: From Coal to Jets].

Senators propose state income tax
OLYMPIA, Wash. -- If a pair of state senators get their way, Washingtonians will soon be paying a 1 percent income tax to generate $500 million for education every year.
So folks these are your paid legislative servants distracting you with vapid nonsense while hatching up their latest scheme for shoving an income tax down our throat.

Does she honestly believe if Amazon hadn't published her birth date that it was top secret? I believe this is more about self promotion than invasion of privacy or age gender bias. The clock is ticking your 15 minutes of fame is about over.

"State income tax initiative steps closer to ballot". This is my comment to this article.
"I originally posted this prediction after Gregoire repealed the 2/3 anti-tax initiative which was Feb 2010. Five months
later.....
"This is just the beginning mark your calendar April 2010... Gov. Gregoire and Rebuilding Our Economic Coalition (union-heavy Seattle group and the special interest serving legislative leaders and chairs in Olympia) will have an income tax and a version of Oregon Measure 67 for Washington before Gregoire's term is over."
