“The Stranger” weekly alternative newspaper in Seattle has a slightly….. artistic (autistic?) bent to it, as is to be expected (and encouraged) in an alternative newspaper.
They have a regular feature that retells selected entries from the police blotter.
Last week’s entry made me think of Cairo for 2 reasons:
- FIRE! (which will only make sense to some of our friends in Cairo…)
- it referenced a name that was vaguely familiar. I read the article, paused and went back to re-read the name to make sure it said what I though it said…
It made me chuckle.
