The Hangar Cafe, just across from the north side of Boeing ( King County Municipal Airport) Airfield is a converted house. The coffee is really good. I haven’t tried the food, yet. They are only open for breakfast and lunch.

Neon sign by day , this ‘Georgetown’ sign is just as eclectic as this neighborhood. I need to take a night shot of this sign.

Hey Pooch!

Spotted on a tree in NE Portland. Does the author expect the “pooch” to scoop its own poop? If so, I’d like to be there to see that happen :-).

Faux “News”

On March 19, 2011March 19, 2011 By Fred KingIn SeattleLeave a comment

Political propaganda show/channel masquerading as news. The decline and fall of corporate news was spearheaded by this channel and Rupert Murdoch. Canada, recently, voted not to allow Fox to set up an affilliate in that country based on the veracity of the product Faux News puts out. Canada still has a law on the books similar to The Fairness Doctrine we used to have in the states until Reagan abolished it in 1986. Post 1986 news coverage did not have to be balanced ( show all sides to an issue ) or even factual in their reporting. After all, it’s just entertainment. Something most of the sheeple in America have not understood.

Fantagraphics, one of the many small businesses located in the Georgetown area of Seattle. I have been amazed by the number of small businesses and companies in Georgetown. Until I parked my car and walked around on foot did I discover the richness of this area.
