A set of keys that included a small green library card has been found on Alki and turned in at the West Seattle (Admiral) branch library.
Seen it happen three times, all in a short period of time.
First time a car slowed down at an intersection as the light changed from yellow to red. The car behind it crossed the double yellow line into the oncoming lane and gunned it to pass and blow through the red light!
Second time the car at the front of the intersection wouldn’t go when the light turned green. Just sat there for 10 seconds until a car in the intersecting lane ran the red light. It was just going regular speed too, wasn’t gunning it to beat the light or anything. It was like the first car knew this was going to happen.
Third time the car was also going at normal speed. Light turned red, driver wasn’t anywhere close to the intersection but didn’t even attempt to slow down. Just casually crossed the intersection like it was still green.
Topic: Need a free couch?
I just got a new couch, and now I’ve got an old one to get rid of. Figured I’d try seeing if anyone was interested before it goes to Value Village or the dump.
It’s a small couch (or large loveseat?). I don’t have exact measurements, but it’s between 6-6.5ft from end to end. Pictures available on this marketplace listing: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1765846910956777/

Hi West Seattle fam,
Wondering if anyone has 1 extra vial of 75IU Menopur they’d be able to spare TONIGHT (Sat, 6/14)? I’d pay you market-rate for it. My IVF doc just asked me to take an extra dose tonight based on today’s bloodwork and I don’t have an extra dose on-hand! As anyone who’s going through IVF/egg freezing knows, this process is already stressful enough, let alone when you’re surprise-instructed to administer a medication that you don’t have!!
Thanks so much. And love to all those who are going through this.
Topic: In need of a Witness
On Tuesday, June 10th at 5:05pm a silver Toyota 4Runner swerved into my lane hitting my white Lexus GX460.
We were heading West on SW Admiral Way (cross street betweenn 37th and Belvidere), right before the construction zone. 4Runner was travelling in the left lane, my Lexus in the right lane.
It was a minor accident – only our mirrors are damaged. But the woman is claiming I swerved into her lane. I’m hoping that a green sedan saw what happened. To the gentleman that was kind enough to stop to allow me to cross in front of him to park behind the 4Runner – thank you!
I would love if you could call me.
