Since everyone is reporting on their own microclimate during windpocalypse 2006: I managed to walk from downtown to Capitol Hill without getting wet. Dry, but windblown. With that out of the way, here’s tonight’s IOB:

• Not sure what the “Uptight Seattleite” would think, but the Weekly has the headline of the week: Boner Patrol Won’t Soften Up [dailyweekly]
• Don’t blame the Jews, it’s Christians who are waging the war on Christmas [horsesass]
• saving the world, one quarter of the country at a time. gas consumption is flatlining in the northwest [dailyscore]
• Seth responds to my challenge [mb] to respond to Westneat’s ridiculous question. He’ll have to claim the prize at the next meet-up. [seattlest]
• I thought that if anything could take down the 800 pound gorilla that is the Slog in Capitol Hill Seattle’s tourney of their corner of Capitol Hill, it would be the infinite inventory of the Everything Store. Apparently their bizarre collection of useful crap isn’t enough. [chs]
