I think King Co has some of the most strict health standards for restaurants in the country. I’m not surprised by closures etc Your home kitchen is more dangerous than either of these places. That wonderful little family run trattoria you ate in outside Rome, yeah .. it wouldn’t pass either.

Feb 15 olive oyl commented on Charles Krafft Is a White Nationalist Who Believes the Holocaust Is a Deliberately Exaggerated Myth.

144 THANK YOU ... I’ve been disturbed by the “outing” of Charles Kraftt ... I’m a Jew whose grandmother’s family fled Poland prior to WWII so obviously I don’t agree with his views, BUT I totally support his right to have them. I don’t know what Ms Graves' desired outcome is but I’m hoping she hasn’t destroyed the lively hood of a man in his 60’s. I think this is whole thing is shitty and my view of The Stranger as a credible source for news and opinion has certainly been diminished greatly. Is Ms Graves going to become the thought police .. interviewing artists to make sure their views are in line with her own? I understand that since Charles’ work involves Nazi imagery where he is coming from is integral to understanding his work, obviously he is honest about this. I just think it’s incumbent on the viewer/buyer/gallerist to understand work. Perhaps if Charles had a show up and The Stranger was reviewing it, this would be relevant. I’m curious why now and to what end?

I totally support schools and public education but a $13 a month increase in property taxes (on average) is a lot and shouldn’t be scoffed at by The Stranger.
At some point Seattle Public Schools are going to have to start producing results .. I feel like I never hear anything good about how they are run or how they perform.

Jan 15 olive oyl commented on Did I Hear You Say Rag Paper Lantern? It's Green Eileen.

I say BRAVO EILEEN FISHER! yes, I’m yelling that ... Jen, have you been to their site? Are you aware of the sustainable way their clothes are made? Or the fact that they support women owned businesses? ... I know $200 seems like a lot for a sweater but given that a $125 sweater from Anthropology or a $29.99 blouse from Old Navy are probably made in a factory where the workers are almost slaves and the dyes pollute the nearby river ... it’s a choice worth considering. Me? I’d rather have one great piece of clothing that will hold up and look good beyond a few wash cycles, while reflecting my values.

Dec 23, 2012 olive oyl commented on I Really Do Want Wayne LaPierre's Head on a Stick.

The NRA has NO place on the commission, their leadership is deluded and in the pockets of the weapons industry .. police and the military can provide all the expertise needed for the weaponry. There are sports groups who can help with the wording so that sports weapons don’t get included in legislation. The NRA is making themselves obsolete and soon only complete wing-nuts will be left .. their not wanting to participate does a disservice to the majority of their member who are actually sane and want some changes made.

It’s glassybaby ..awesome company.

donates a % of each sale to charity, different colors go to different causes ... locally made, environmentally aware, employs many glassblowers .. some haters have got to hate regardless, but yep they’ve donated over a million dollars to charity, which is fantastic for a company that sells products for around $40.
