yet another geek blog about Seattle, food, gadgets, games and the art of laziness
What is it with drivers in Seattle scooting around only one functional car headlight in the rain? Is this a deliberate trend? I see at least one car each night trying to impersonate a motor bike. Not all of them are old and beat up either. Considering that my commute is around 20 minutes long [...]
