After the run of the hit show, Frasier, and that awesome work of cinema, Sleepless in Seattle, I thought nothing could come along that would make Seattle look softer.

Top Ten Things You Didn't Know About Seattle:
- Sir Mix-A-Lot reps us...hard
- Where the Atomic Bomb was Invented
- Only Colony to Have Two People Sign the Declaration of Independence
- Doughnuts are illegal...as is any type of pollution. That's why we all live in tents, bio diesel fueled tents.
- That's a real hospital in the show! It's where I was born and delivered by some crying woman doctor who had just cheated on her boyfriend or gotten pregnant or something else totally life ruining.
- The ferry is fake though. Why would we use boats when we have bridges everywhere...FLOATING BRIDGES.
- Karl Marx wrote the Communist Manifesto after seeing my high school
- The song, Don't Stop Believin', was written about the quest to get indoor plumbing to all residents in the early '80s.
- George Washington, namesake of our great state, could not tell a lie, except when he told you that dogs go to heaven.
- Sarah Palin used to be Mayor.
