Saturday, February 11

Saturday was the last loud day of the Danish Cartoon controversy (on Slog, anyway) and host to one more vigorous debate.

Sunday, February 12

Slog rested on Sunday.

Monday, February 13

A minuscule Nazi demonstration in Fremont brought back last week’s most-contested catch phrase, freedom of speech. And we saw more proof that everybody’s reading Slog as Seattle Weekly and Stranger staffers threw spit-wads at each other behind the news that the Weekly’s music editor is leaving.

Cienna Madrid let us in on a good Valentines prank she played on her brother, Carlos. (He flipped some dirt back in the comments thread.) And David Schmader advised us to skip The Wedding Singer.

Wednesday, February 15

Josh Feit wondered if there are better uses for Key Arena besides Sonics games. A courteous and intelligent discussion ensued.

Thursday, February 16

Annie Wagner revealed her fetish for Mormons on film and Paul Constant injected Ace of Base into thousands of heads. Then Dan Savage decided it would be fun to have the 2008 Republican National Convention in Seattle and readers got excited about the protest possibilities. Dan also retired Seattle’s Smaller Weekly Watch and was badgered about returning a proper table of contents to The Stranger.

Jen Graves took readers on a little illustrated art walk and Josh Feit ignited a discussion on the latest downtown height-limit plan. Linger a while longer if you can; I’ve got to get back to work but Friday is still in progress.
