I'm a geomorphologist, avid boater, Seahawks fan, and progressive voter. A liberal gun-owner that drives an F-150 and a Prius, depending on which suits my need. A scientist who admits when I am wrong (despite what my wife says).
Lets give Egypt and Israel (and maybe FIFA?) the inaugural Seattle Peace Prize and see if they change their tune...

Ah, that makes sense!
The Skagit peaked this morning just above its historic high level. But now waters are receding, and hopefully this break in the rain will let things dry out a bit.

Who is DS? I came through the Snoqualmie Valley yesterday and it was a mess.

Looking at the rainfall totals this morning, and Snohomish County was in a rain shadow for most of this. About half an inch is all, while Skagit and King got close to 3 times that. Of course the bigger rivers originate in the mountains where over 10 inches fell in some places...

The County is presently working on a plan to provide better access across the Snoqualmie between Carnation and Duvall. Flood regulations and agricultural preservation make it very tricky, but they are working on it. This flood will probably help keep the momentum up.

Imagining the TV ads. Big Bob's House of Docs. LOW LOW PRICES! Shop our Christmas sale event! Emergency care 30% off! C-sections 50% off! Tell your ambulance driver to head to low-overhead Sumner! WE WON'T BE UNDERSOLD!!!

Right? Why are they trying to find something new and different? There are dozens of effective models out there that are both cheaper and better, but the corporate-owned senators and representatives won't even discuss them.

Is Stafford a quality QB? His stat line against Seattle was 15/28 for 130 yards.
Seattle can only play the teams on their schedule, but they gave Stafford his worst game of the season.

It's not just him, and not just the Republican. It's the voters that put them in power. The US might be better off today if Lincoln had let the Confederacy secede. But the tragedy of slavery would probably still be going strong there.

So, the subsidies are "socialism" and therefore evil. But handing out money directly to people (farmers, people needing insurance, etc.) is NOT socialism, and is actually a good thing to do?

I mean, it WAS a black see-through dress! That's the traditional mourning color, right?

I can't see 2 wins on that schedule. I hope River's survives the next month!

7) Ban gerrymandering and develop apolitical algorithm for setting district boundaries
8) Set federal standards for voting to provide equal access across states
9) Independent voting, vote-tallying, and vote auditing
10) Instant runoff elections or other process to encourage 3rd party participation

Let each draft a list and see who is common on all of them...

They worked for 250 years before they became too corrupt. Lets not throw out the baby with the bathwater. But changes need to be made. First might be to get rid of the 2 party system, which was not supposed to be part of our government, and isn't part of better-functioning governments.

I mean, if he isn't, how would his actions be any different?

The error is they used the wrong font for the "S"

Why haven't we deported this MFer yet?

We aren't trying to discredit the "warriors", we're discrediting YOU - Pete Kegsbreath. YOU issued the illegal order. Now you're using them as shields to protect you from being discredited. And no doubt you will try to incriminate them when the war crime tribunals begin.

How fun would it be to see Darnold throwing to him again along with JSN and Kupp?
December 1, 2025 at 6:33 PM
Surely the NFL will fine him for this, right?

Tom Bilger was taken in the same courthouse. He was supposed to celebrate his 1 year anniversary the next day but was abducted onstead. He is my friend's brother in law. I posted about him last week. And it's not just abduction. It's extortion too. Charged for food. $50 for a 2 minute call.

Chewing tobacco. Another commonality of the 2 first name class like Jim Bob and MarkWayne.
