I’m curious about Skeeters comment correlating the safety of streets with car registration. I take that to mean you believe our streets are less safe because of people driving unregistered cars. Do you have data to back that up? It seems to me that the variety of reasons why people haven’t registered their cars would result in a wide variety of drivers, hard to determine in my opinion, if these people are more or less safe behind the wheel than registered drivers. Also, comment that our insurance rates are high because of unregistered drivers and the damage they cause, I know it’s a common belief, do you have proof?

Greenwood Heating and Air and Brennan are good contractors, but you may want to go through PSE if you already have gas to you home, they have pretty good deals for new units. If you use a local HVAC company, make sure you get a brand new unit, not one that has sat around for awhile in a warehouse. It is not good for HVAC units to sit and it voids the manufacturer warranty if not installed right away.
A friend of mine recently got a bid to replace a unit that was installed in 2006. Turns out, the unit that was installed in 2006 was manufactured in 1998.
Be careful and remember, you get what you pay for.

This is shortsighted and doesn’t take into account the increasing number of electric vehicles on the road that pay exactly $0 in fuel taxes. My registration costs are minimal compared to the $.49/gal fuel tax. For my work truck that’s $15 per fill and road maintenance and projects are where those monies are supposed to go. Since electric vehicles make use of the same roads they short change the system. It’s one of the reasons that WA has considered piloting a per mile tax rather than fuel tax…although this also seems problematic in its implementation.

There are many problems with trying to limit sales of fuel to vehicles based on registration and I have a hard time believing that this is such a widespread issue. Honestly, it’s hard enough to get anything done in this state with the roadblock we erect, let alone in the Seattle area.

The West 5 had been in decline before COVID came along, with empty tables on a Friday or Saturday night more often than not. Couple that with a loss of long-time staff, inexperienced/rude new staff, and poor service equals closed restaurant.

This was one of my favorite watering holes for many of the years that it was open but it declined. I’ll miss it but I certainly won’t lose any sleep over it. There’s always another place that’ll know my name and what I like.

[anonyme]

I don’t know how big a problem this is, but given Seattle’s reluctance to enforce most laws it might be bigger than you’d think. I know that I have neighbors whose multiple cars have all had Oregon tags for 15 years ++; different, but related. The issue is one of fairness; somebody has to pay, and those who don’t pay their fair share place the increased burden on everyone else. So yes, it does affect “us”. Nor do I understand why everyone is piling on Eddie. His gas station idea might not be the best or most workable, but the issue itself is as legitimate as any of the other rants posted in the forums. As Jort might point out, maybe it’s because Americans anthropomorphize their cars and get downright tetchy if anyone suggests putting constraints on that ‘relationship’.

[lowmanbeachdrive]

Hello,
I am interested in learning about co-working or co-crafting spaces in West Seattle. I have a computer job and I’m on conference calls about 1/2 of the time. I also enjoy drawing and other crafts. I enjoy ambient noise – kids, dogs, other people working, the sounds of a busy store, or the like. I’d be open to working in someone else’s home, office, the back end of someone’s local store in extra space, or other spaces. I’m friendly and upbeat, but also respectful and quiet. I am sensitive to molds, dust, and cats, so I’d like a clean, cat-free space.
I tried the Co-working space in West Seattle next to Paper Boat, but I had a reaction to the space (dust mites, mold?).
I’d be there during the day, probably. Open to a variety of prices/space ideas.

I find it hard to believe that the US Government is making phone calls. Those of us who don’t think like criminals often can’t imagine how calculated a criminal plot can be. Best to be cautious in my opinion.

Today everytime I try to read an article and the comments, it’s being blocked by a local listing ad. This is the first time this has happened to me, so do not know whether it’s the Blog or me,
What happened? How do I fix this? Very annoying!!! Help!!!!
Anyone else having this problem?

[Jeffrey Henderson]

Are you a human who is loved by dogs? Do you consider yourself a dog person and love them right back? How about working with them? We’re hiring staff at our dog daycare and boarding facility in West Seattle, Good Dog.

NOTE: You MUST complete the submission steps as outlined at the end of this listing. Applicants who do not submit as directed will not be considered and will not be contacted. If this ad is up, we’re still accepting applicants (we always accept applicants because we’re always on the lookout for good humans!).

We have openings for all daytime shifts – every day of the week (INCLUDING weekends). We also need some overnight backup. If you have availability, you’ll get the hours! From 15 to 35+ per week.

WEEKEND
– About 15+ hours available per weekend (typical shift is 8:45 a.m. – 4:15 p.m.)
– Could include an occasional overnight shift and will definitely include some holiday work during the holidays
– MUST love dogs, be adept in working with customers, POS, etc.

WEEKDAY
– Up to 35+ hours per week
– Opening and closing shifts (shifts could be 6:15 a.m. – 2:15 p.m.; 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.; 2:15 – 7:15 p.m. or 11:15 a.m. – 7:15 p.m.)
– Could include an occasional overnight shift and will definitely include some holiday work during the holidays
– MUST love dogs, be adept in working with customers, POS, etc.

Our ideal candidate can follow the submission instructions, has flexibility with their availability, and is willing to work to cover the shifts where we’re short!

While we can train you on nearly everything you need to perform this job, we need you to have some customer service experience and be able to think on your feet with some finesse.

Furthermore, we need you to be a hard worker who is responsible and fun to have around. The pay for daytime shifts is $17.27 per hour ($15.75 plus tips). The pay scale for overnights is based on the number of dogs for which you’re caring. Should the number of dogs exceed 20, we add another overnight person who spends the night in a different room.

For more information about us and what this job requires, please go to our website (gooddog-inc.com) and visit the WORK WITH US page.

Once you’ve done that – and THIS is the important part – apply as follows:

1. Submit your resume (PDF, please) via email with a cover letter (this can be the body of your email) to jobs@gooddog-inc.com
2. Tell us why you’re a good fit.
3. Tell us when you’re available to start.
4. Tell us what your ongoing availability is.

Fit is more important than experience so while we’re not looking for someone with a bunch of experience, as noted, we do require some customer service experience or at least an inclination to be personable. Also as noted, we’re looking for a person who knows how to think on their feet, interface with people, loves dogs, and will fit with our team and help us make our business the best. Having experience with dogs is definitely a plus!

We look forward to hearing from you as you follow steps one through four above, but via email only, please (and attachments should be PDFs).

Remember, if you don’t follow the submission instructions, you won’t get a reply.

DO NOT call or drop by – our attention needs to be focused on the dogs, just email us at jobs@gooddog-inc.com

[mark47n]

I don’t recall who said it, but I agree wholeheartedly, with the original post being right on the money in its enforcement of the stereotypes that abound about this region. If you’ve got the what it takes to break the law (it’s posted on the gates and fences) then you’ve got what it takes to accept the consequences. In this case it’s just someone calling you out on it…seems pretty lightweight to me, but it’s tweaked that sense of self-righteousness in you.

Just because it’s not causing immediate and discernible harm doesn’t mean that it’s not still illegal-despite how you feel about it. This is a concept that young children grasp; it’s against the rules, therefore you don’t do it. It would seem that we age out of that understanding and move on to equivocation and rationalizing. It’s ironic, isn’t it, that your anger is about possibly being called out rather than being upset with those that violate the rules that are in place to protect the health and wellbeing of those that use that playfield and periodically end up with a face full of it and hopefully just the field…that’s the purpose of those laws to protect HEALTH and safety of the users of a public school playfield.

No, there is no dog park specific to those who live in the Admiral District. There is no specific dog park for anyone, even those on Mercer Island who feel that Luther Burbank belongs just to them. Anyone can use any dog park. I’m sure you know that but you seem really put out that there isn’t one for your neighborhood, it’s okay to go use one in another neighborhood. Further, it’s extremely unlikely that there will ever be a dog park in the Admiral neighborhood, where would you put it? A new one is in the works and it will take years for that to become a reality.

Your second post is riddled with what I’ve noted as a new and aggravating trend of apparent anger that I don’t respond the way that you want. I don’t have to address your questions, I can say what I want, even if you think it is unrelated. I can criticize the concepts that you put forth and any crappy rhetoric you put forward. Your original post certainly led myself and others to presume that you were yelled at, given that that’s how you began this whole thread and it’s a reasonable thing to conclude. Further, in your second sullen post you don’t clarify anything, only attack the posts of others, other than to say you want to compare derrieres. To wrap this bit up, you also decide to go so far as criticizing the writing of others and compare it to that of a 6th grader.

So, to wrap up, your argument is terrible “I don’t like it and can’t see who it immediately hurts so the law doesn’t apply”, followed by “going to legal dog parks is inconvenient so I can use the school field”. Terrible arguments. I hope you’re not an attorney.
