We should also implement a reward / sticker system at the end of the trail, so *everyone* can feel a sense of accomplishment! Excellent Liberal impersonation, Ben.

It's once out-of-control dogs start face humping my children that I start getting the zip ties out. For the owner.

]]> Comment on Strip club being proposed in Renton’s valley; unlike in Seattle, it must comply with four-foot rule by Dancer From Sinrock http://www.randycorman.com/?p=1971#comment-20844 Dancer From Sinrock Mon, 07 May 2012 02:27:49 +0000 http://localhost/randycorman_new/?p=1971#comment-20844 I've danced at Sinrock for over a year, and there are Zero girls hooked on drugs, about 7 out of 10 are single mothers, and I myself have a Bachelors Degree and still choose to dance for my own reasons. By the way, states without stripclubs have 5 times higher prostitution rates and Washington has an abnormally high rape rate, and that is because of its retarded 4-foot law/no alcohol ordinances. You assholes should THANK us for saving your daughters from the perverts out there.

Many of us go there almost daily with our doggies. It is one of the only dog friendly places nearby. As Devil's elbow gets more press, I am counting on you to defend us dog lovers and horse lovers too! Our big fear is our best kept secret place to take our dogs will become ruined with rules. We also go to the dog park weekly so thanks for advocating for that. You do such a great job listening to the people! Marlene Winter Randy– I love seeing you great wife, kids and friendly horse.

There hasn't been a legitimate newspaper here since the South County Journal.

The Ecology dept. had to require that the City correctly classify Honey Creek, as it had been underprotected for many years. Remember the beautiful little farm at Sunset and Union, with the creek meandering through it? All asphalt now , with a ditch around the edge to convey the water. Sadly, the poor economy will make environmental protection even more of a "luxury" we cannot afford when it comes to restricting development in sensitive areas.
