Full disclosure: When I lived downtown, shortly after I moved to Seattle, I almost stepped in front of a speeding bus on Western Avenue. I was reading a book while I walked around a deserted, pre-condo-tower Belltown. And I came... this close... to being killed. If I had been walking a split second faster... I would've been killed. But God didn't want me to win a Darwin Award that day. Because God had had a plan for my life... a plan that included this.
