WHAT I LEARNED
1. Naked people love to be interviewed
2. Just because the beer was brewed in the neighborhood, that doesn't mean it tastes better than regular beer
3. People who drive "art cars" are just more interesting
4. Getting quotes from a woman over the age of 100 is like pulling teeth (if she had any teeth left)
5. If a John Smith is arrested for assualt with a deadly weapon, I have to call every Smith in the phone book until I find a relative of his I can talk to. "Escuse me, My name is Molly Mullen with the Seattle P-I, are you related to the John Smith who was arrested yesterday?" That could make for a very interesting afternoon.

seattle is making you too cool. that picture of the fantagraphics guy is awesome. HEY while your in seattle, you should go read "BUDDY DOES SEATTLE" (which i think was actually put out by fantagraphics?) its disgusting, i think you'd like it. GO FORTH.
i had an experience like that Smith one, on time. That fucking sucks.
Also, apparently, if a neighbor of a dead or missing woman rattles off a list of people you should talk to for bio information on her, you're supposed to call every single one of them and also ask them if they know anyone you should talk to, even if you're the only reporter working on Sundays and you have three other stories to write.
