You’re such an honest cat owner! I just wouldn’t mention the cat while looking at places. I had to pull that move a few times myself and never had a problem with any landlord (even when they found out about the cat a few months into the lease term!).

Anyone know of or is interested in developing a morning meditation group somewhere in West Seattle, preferably close to Alki? I’m thinking every weekday morning for an hour or any part of that starting at around 6 or 6:30 but later could be fine, too.

Found this article online:

Do you have to update your Canadian Citizenship photo?

I currently live about 15 minutes away from Detroit, Michigan, and if I traveled there from my city in Canada, it would be by land.

I was told by Passport Canada that Canadians do not require passports to enter the US by land (until 2008), but if you travel by air, you would need to have your passport. Since my Canadian passport expired in April 2007, I’ll have to resort to using my Canadian Citizenship card to cross the border.

The problem is, the photo taken of myself is from when I was 9-10 years old. I’m now 22 years old. I’ve had no problems in the past few years going to the States with just my Citizenship card, but one immigration officer said my photo was too outdated, even though I had other valid photo ID to prove that was me.

My question is this: Do you have to update your Canadian Citizenship photo? And can they deny you entry because you look too young in just the Citizenship card photo? And how can I obtain an updated Citizenship card? Thanks so much

Kingstonsean: The cizitizenship card is not a travel document, but from now until 2008, all you need to travel from canada to the US is proof of your citizenship and govt issued photo id, such as a drivers license…so until 2008, you don’t need a passport if traveling by land and sea.

I wonder if anyone knows how swearing does not affect kids?

There’s a brief article about Seattle West Inn & Suites in the West Seattle Herald: http://www.westseattleherald.com/articles/2008/01/17/news/local_news/news01.txt

It doesn’t sound like they’ve done any upgrading yet, just separated their association with Travelodge. You might want to give them a call and ask if you can inspect a couple of rooms before you recommend them to visitors. I can’t imagine them saying no. If they do, that’s your answer.

Okay, here’s a gentle reminder for everyone that drives when the sun ain’t shining (which is 99% of the time here during the winter). Please turn your car headlights on- it would make it so much easier to see everyone. This includes when it is raining, it’s cloudy, it’s dark, it’s foggy, etc… thank you!

I personaly think lattemom needs to mind her own business. No kids were around right? Your a grown adult right? Why don’t you try minding your own and live and let live. Now this jobless guy is gonna rob your house so he can feed his filthy mouth kids…good going!

I will take sides.

The idea that language harms children is ludicrous but widespread. It is however impolite.

Those using foul language therefore take their chances on the job. Too bad the worker had to run into you today. His bad luck.

But I feel the holier than thou attitude will harm children exposed to it more in the long run that overhearing a bit of colorful prose.

Do you also attempt to get books removed from the library using the same criteria? Music from music stores?

I am so glad we have people like you always willing to teach people a lesson.

I know I learned one today.

Ymmm, Jan, don’t forget stratas usually have bread in them too. Something needs to soak up all the eggy and cheesy goodness! What could be better??

Squareeyes- sorry to say, but good luck with that request (I can’t help but be sarcastic). All-Star won’t lift a finger to make one improvement to that pool. Trust me, I went back and forth with them until I realized nothing would get done because they don’t know what they are doing. I only wish it hadn’t taken me so long to quit that club.

If you aren’t a confident swimmer, my advice would be to swim at a Seattle City pool where the lifeguards actually watch the pool and the pools are run efficiently and safely. Then if you have problems, they’ll actually be there to help you promptly (I would not be as confident with the guards at All-Star, which is an understatement).

It just so happens that tonight (1/17) is Kindergarten Information Night at Gatewood. If you can make it, there will be administrators, staff and parents in attendance to answer questions. Most of the elementary schools will be doing this, so log onto each one’s website for dates and times – links are on the “Schools” tab at the top of the blog. We’ll also have the same folks at the upcoming fairs at SSCC and the SSD Headquarters.

Dustin: Enjoy Valentines Day!! Again, your Wife sure made a good catch landing you! :) When I first read your posting I almost cried it was so sweet!! Daniel’s Broiler has an amazing view of the water and again it is very romantic!

I am not going to take sides here…but…maybe there’s something going on in this guy’s personal life that was affecting him? In his marriage? In his kid’s lives? If he has kids, imagine not being able to support them now? Swear words happen…if you don’t like them, then you complain. That’s your choice and your right.Whoever his boss was on this job should have been contacted first(actually, he should have been on top of it before you were ever involved)…did you think about that? There must have been a supervisor there. They could have nipped it in the bud right then, and not sent this man into the unemployment world. This is not a perfect world, and some of the people that your children run into will undoubtably do things that affect them one way or another. How you raise them in your home makes the difference.

Denigrating another person on here because they disagree with you isn’t exactly good form. We all have our opinions…that’s what makes this forum so great. I saw no anger in JimmyG’s disagreement with what you did….just another way of looking at things….no need to call him a jerk…

You missed my point. It IS a big deal this guy got fired, a big over-reaction.

Can you post a link to some studies that prove there is permanent damage to kids from merely hearing curse words?

Bottom line: Karma can be a b*>ch.

Thanks lattemom. I’ll have to look up Daniel’s Broiler. I’ve learned the hard way that waiting too long to make V-Day plans usually ends up in disaster (i.e. no matter how hard you try, sub sandwiches just aren’t that romantic).
