This video is from the alien encounter of Dr Reed (Dr Jonathan Reed or John Rutter) which took place in October of 1996. As Rutter (Dr Reed) explained, his alien encounter originated in the Cascade Mountains east of Seattle near Snoqualmie Pass. While still in the mountains, Rutter came across the creature by accident while he and his dog were hiking in the forest. For unknown reasons his dog apparently attacked the creature. The creature, in reaction to the dog attacking it, began to defend iRepeat After Me: Why Haven’t the Philadelphia Eagles Front Office Given Donovan McNabb Talented Receivers?

Once again this very-early morning, we’re hearing on the scanner that police are being called out to deal with allegedly rowdy sledders and snowmobilers on Charlestown hill (a few blocks west of California SW).

Hello from snowy Seattle! With the help of the picturesque white scenery outside, I’ve been totally feeling the holiday vibe. To accompany my spirits, I watched one of my favorite holiday movies, Love Actually, for like the hundredth time last weekend. Now there’s a scene in the movie where this little girl with wonderful lungs sings “Make my wish come true….All I want for Christmas is yoooouuuu…..and you…and yowhoowhoo (pointing to random people in the room)!

I’ve noticed over the past few days that I’ve had several comments and emails from new readers of my blog. In fact, I’ve gotten some really nice emails from folks complimenting me both on my blog in general, and on my weight loss success as well. I was a bit surprised by the sudden surge of new folks, but thankful to have them. I just kind of chalked it up that since it’s the holiday season, perhaps people had more time for blog surfing and were checking weight loss/fitness blogs looking for soMerry Christmas 2008, Happy New Year and Happy Holidays

If you didn’t know any better, you’d think that Seattle was the team continuing their winning ways and heading to the NFC playoffs again. After this weeks games, it can now arguably be said that Seattle might be the best team in the NFC West, records notwithstanding.

By Leofwyn Wolfssen for www.priestlakeblog.com I was 13 years old, and lucky enough to spend two weeks at Reeder Bay in July. There were lots of kids there, my age, younger, and older.

At 13, I was emerging from the fog of childhood just in time to be thrust into the wilderness of puberty and desire ... and Mary, oh my. Mary. I've follwed Mary's life.

Hi guys! Beet here. Just a little note to explain what shit’s gonna look like around here over the next couple of days. Zero flights got out of Seattle today. ZERO. So to that asshole who was posting in an earlier thread about how Seattlites need to stop bitching about the snow, FUCK YOU. Because everyone who was supposed to fly home for the holidays today is fucked. If your flight today got canceled, you can’t get on another out of Seattle until the 27th, maybe the 26th if you’re lucky. So eveClassless In Seattle: Shaun Ellis Throws Snowball at Fan
Shaun Ellis of the New York Jets is caught on camera throwing a large snowball at a fan at Qwest Field after the Jets 13-3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The defensive end had three tackles in the game, but the only time he was really around a ball was his impromptu snowball fight as he exited Qwest Field in Seattle. Certainly Ellis was frustrated that the Jets had gone ice cold in the Emerald City, but his throw of a snowball was more playful than hurtful. Also, it was the best pass by a JThis Week On DVD and Blu-ray: December 27, 2008
