There were shots fired on Jackson & 18th last night (Wednesday night).

Does anyone have any details about this? Thanks!

I miss the state-run liquor stores. They had good selection and knowledgeable employees (not to mention lower prices, at least for now). Now I can buy bum wine at every grocery store, it seems, but I can’t find anything good.

Are there any liquor stores in the Greater Seattle area that come close to what the state liquor stores used to offer? I can’t find Campari or Death’s Door Gin, for example.

Thanks for your help.

Last week I noticed that the used car dealership at the northwest corner of Yesler & 17th was gone. The lot, which usually had about 10 cars parked on it, was empty, and there were two signs on the fence: One was the black fist with “O S” on it, and I believe that’s the Occupy Seattle logo. The other sign pictures an artillery round flying back into a cannon.

Does anyone know what happened there? It seems like somebody is awfully glad that the dealership is gone.

Thanks!
