- In an excellent and moving piece of journalism, Eli Sanders chronicled the view from the P-I newsroom following the grim, question-free address by Steve Swarz. [slog]
- A proposal for bringing the newspaper into the tunneling business, a reminder of the beginning of the countdown chronicle [bigblog], and a round-up of a bunch more “future of the P-I, if it has a future” links that have been passing around since the FOR SALE announcement went up. [seattlest (now with a flashier interface)]

- Ben Gibbard reflects on the early days of Death Cab for Cutie. Aside from the nostalgia, my favorite part is how Chris Walla didn’t realize he was in the band until 2001. Corollary: how long will it take for Zooey Deschanel to realize she’s engaged? [avclub]
- The state of Washington is only third in the US in terms of ninja appreciation. Look out Hawai’i and Oregon. [laweekly]
