I read a few years back that the average King County homeowner pays $30/month in property taxes to the King County Library System.

Seeing all the newly built libraries in the last few years (Burien, Bellevue, Redmond) I'm surprised it's not higher.

1 dozen large eggs are $7 (in the pictures of the farmers market).
1 dozen large eggs are $2 at Trader Joes.
2 dozen organic large brown eggs are $5 at Costco.

Glad to know there is some progress being made against the beef industry. Remember years ago when Oprah made some negative comments about them...which later she admitted was one of the scariest times in her life.

Yet another sad traffic death. This has unfortunately been happening daily around here. Given the time of the day I would guess it's more likely speed rather than alcohol caused it.

Costco said they had their lawyers look it over otherwise they wouldn't have spent $22 million on it. Seems hard to believe the initiative would be shot down.

It's still a rough market around here. The house next to me sold for $465,000 in 2008. That owner sold a year later for $425,000. The current owner has tried to sell it for $345,000 but people looking were asking for another $30k discount. (All the owners have been forced to move due to job layoffs, not because there is anything wrong with the house)

Good for Boeing and this is good news for local employment.

If you've never seen them test fly these planes, Coulon park is a good vantage point in the summer.

at 5:01pm are the rest of us invited to stop by his house and each pick up a dozen roses?

At least that will help partly redeem his excessively wasteful behavior.

No jail time for the CEO or board of directors? <YAWN>

I've long since closed my BOA account (which originally was SeaFirst) and use a local credit union.
