WTF Seattle

I'm going to talk about something that all adults love: PoLiTiCs...

So apparently we love to not make any decisions in Seattle. We love to take things that are smart and good, plan on them, and then not follow through at all. We build things that nobody asks and ignore things that should be asked for. Can we just please tear this motherf****er down!?!

Where's my monorail? Where's my ferry system? Where are the hoverboards!?! Where is the pristine waterfront?

But no, Seattle voters said NO & NO. No means no. Did we get that yet? But that's a double negative and that means null. So voters of Seattle you are all null until we allow our autocrat Mayor Nickels to impose his will on the city like a Tammany Hall man really should.

What dreams may come though lodgers for the future of our city?

For the record...I don't want a frakking tunnel. It'll take way too long to build and it'll cost way too much.

I agree. I voted for the elevated replacement bridge, and not the tunnel.

One word... earthquakes. The earth is a tricky beast. It's not the smartest thing to build an underground tunnel 100 feet from the Puget Sound that shares a major fault. Science. Don't front, yo.

My wife, she voted yes on both due to the logic that we need any alternative to nothing. I like her enthusiasm. But I just no that the best structural engineering in the world can't stop an earthquake. Or Magneto, for that matter.

clear the waterfront, clear the traffic, kill the viaduct, and rebuild this... because we're twice as smart as the people of shelbyville.

I am going with Joe on this, his people know sub-sea level building.

If we build that tunnel he will be up all night with is Dutch Sense tingling, ready to plug any holes with his finger.
