Won't You Be My Neighbor

Capitol Hill Seattle Blog

I recently discovered this great new blog, CHS: Capitol Hill Seattle. It's all about my neighborhood and it's been up for a little over a year. They are way better about keeping up with their posts, generally posting a few times a day. So, during the slow times at the Buffalo Blog, head on over there to see what's up. They have already turned me on to a lot of great things in the area, like Vios, a hip, Greek Market and restaurant with the best meatball sandwiches around! Soooo good.

CHS also tipped me off another great resource, The Capitol Hill Times. It's got more great stuff about what's going on in the neighborhood. I think the reason I like this site so much is that they have a police blotter. Be warned though, it can get a little addicting. Plus, I've had a jones for a police blotter ever since I desperately tried and failed to find one in the days after the incident involving the police dog and the man under our neighbor's car. It only goes back about a month, so I'm no closer to unraveling that mystery now than I was then. Good times. "Come out or you will get bit." What a nice welcome to the neighborhood.

I digress. CHS is a very cool blog and makes me feel a little more hip knowing what's going on in the neighborhood. For example, I bet you didn't know that some guy is filming an indie movie at the old First Church of Christ, Scientist? Or that the Capitol Hill Mommie Mafia loves pudgy-fudgies? I didn't think so, but now you do. Spread the word, bird.

The Daily Chuckle

Some cyanide, please

A calm and respectable lady went into the pharmacy and walked right up to the pharmacist, looked straight into his eyes, and said, "I would like to buy some cyanide."

The pharmacist asked, "Why in the world do you need cyanide?"

The lady replied, "I need it to poison my husband."

The pharmacist's eyes got big, and he exclaimed, "Lord, have mercy! I can't give you cyanide to kill your husband! That's against the law! I would lose my license! They'll throw both of us in jail! All kinds of bad things will happen! Absolutely not! You CANNOT have any cyanide!"

The lady reached into her purse and pulled out a picture of her husband in bed with the pharmacist's wife. The pharmacist looked at the picture and replied,

"Well, now. That's different. You didn't tell me you had a prescription."

Buffalo Blog: Live in Concert

So, by now, you've finally realized that I have a few tricks up my sleeve. The Church Sign in my previous post was not a real church sign. I generated it using the Church Sign Generator. It's a slick little site that lets you pick from five different church signs and input your own custom message. They also have the Concert Ticket Generator, Vinyl Record Generator, Cassette Tape Generator, and many more.

Yeah, I wish I could take credit for finding these things out in the wild, but I'm not that talented. But I put this challenge to you. What's the best thing you can generate? Post your best generation in the comments section and we'll see who's got the chops for corporate marketing.

I personally, think that the Buffalo Blog's new executive seal is pretty honking sweet. Peep it:

Mr. T. Seal of Approval

Hang in there...

I'm a terrible person for not updating my blog...
