Hizzoner turns humorist

But you know, it does reveal that somebody in Hizzoner’s office has become mighty PR-savvy. This is going to get one orca of a lot of attention, vastly more than yet another dry Power Point presentation.

(For the record, my favorite option, the “just-tear-it-down” option, would not go over with the “Committee to Save Big Ugly Things” any better than the money-hole tunnel. And another side note … don’t know who the guy in the video is, but he looks something like the actor who played Christopher Henderson in the just-concluded season of “24.)

OMG, LOL! WSBlogger– It was too surreal, like a John Report from Almost Live. Seattle loves big ugly things. Remember the Big Unit??? The big cowboy boots and hat, the Twin Teepees? I just watched this on Q13 and thought it hilarious. Funny how they didn’t show the HUGE backup on I-5 when the construction occurs for 6-10 years? Keep up the great work. You are a daily stop for me on the web.

You’re right, it really did evoke the golden days of “Almost Live.” (Which I miss like crazy … sometimes if we’re up late at night, we’ll catch the reruns on channel 6.) Thanks for the props.

Sorry, comment time is over.
