Microsoft dominates the Seattle economy.

Google contributes to the Kirkland economy.

Apple has a store in Southcenter.

So why are so many SLOGgers disloyal Appleologists?

You're giving Richard Lee a run for his money here, Goldy.

You guys are fascinated with people using both Apple and Microsoft products like it's some sort of paradox. They're all just products. You are not your phone and you choice in computer doesn't actually say much about you.

I called City Hall the other day to complain about the arrests of those protestors on Monday morning. The clerk asked where I heard about these arrests, and I told her I saw it on SLOG. she told me I should never trust the Stranger's blog.

I then asked her if she was tacitly rejecting the Stranger's endorsement of Mike McGinn for Mayor. She refused to comment.

@ #7 Don't pick on receptionists. It's bad karma.

In any case, U-Village is private property and they're responsible for managing their premises.

Come to think of it, people set up tents on the sidewalks every year outside of Safeco Field to be the first in line for Mariners tickets, and none of those people have ever been arrested. Maybe the city is just being merciful, because those people are clearly mentally ill if they are camping out overnight to buy Mariners tickets.

@ 9, every year? You obviously haven't been following the Mariners attendance figures for the past decade or so.

@10 Some do it every year, regardless of the record. That's why I question their sanity.

You flatter yourself. His laugh wasn't nervous, just phony.

I thought he handled that well actually. Maybe he's learning.

Oh.. And! "I hate to put you on the spot..."..?
I think you better check your pants for burn marks.

Maybe he didn't have the U Village campers arrested because they weren't on city property, and U Village wanted them to be there?

@7: Beautiful!

I, for one, believe everything I read on Slog, even that it's November 20th. Wherever did the time go?
