Yes, Sodom on the Sound has gotten a bit too big. But that's not to say the game's over. It's not, not by a long shot. Are you with us, combat_boots, or are you surrendering?
Oh no, I am not surrendering. Read the tagline. No way.
I do remember, however, 2 events from my Washington State days that proved the place was changing. One involved 2 women who literally turned their noses up at a passerby, which made me think the 2 were transplants, as natives at the time wouldn't have done that. Another involved a California transplant who was upset that he couldn't find a plumber on New Year's Day to work for him on the house he was building.
The spelling should have been woolly, from the days of women burning guys' socks in bars and such. Great days were those. J. C. (did, after all), made Seatlle's streets under protest. Let's see........Do I remember any of the names? Juniper?, Cherry, Sixth, Pike and Pine..........
