Partially obscuring your logo is a fairly Weekly-esque move, however.

Thank goodness for the dotted lines... without which I would have simply thought that was a picture of a man happily flying to work, powered soley by his own specialy brand of biofuel.

ha ha! nice cover. Those shmuck's at "Seattle Fecklopolitan" need to make a list about why they suck at making lists.

Ugh. So weak and uncreative. One of the worst Stranger covers EVER. I can't believe you're flaunting this here.

And this obsession with slagging every other newspaper and magazine in town is getting really, really, really old.

Looks like the gays were forgotten this Halloween. Here's a list for them: http://gayseattle.blogspot.com/2007/10/gay-seattle-halloween-guide.html

@12 AMAZING? Not quite the word I would use. Jack Hornady does great work, don't get me wrong. Too bad it's squandered here.

And what a coincidence, the Stranger figures prominently in the press clips on your site.

Hey #10, it's a cheeky halloween cover, not a submission to the Guggenheim.

I don't know if that's something you can do, you know, submit to the Guggenheim, but it doesn't matter, cause that's not what they're doing.

And this obsession with slagging The Stranger on Slog, sorta sad. Seriously.

I'm not slag-jealous of The Stranger. I'M jealous of the man's shoes. I want some tiny-ass shoes like that. With some tiny-ass heels.

Remember, jump off the West Seattle Bridge, NOT the Aurora Bridge.

People live in Fremont, and you might hit someone on the bike path.

To be honest I work at another publication in Seattle and I thought the cover was quit cute and funny.

I often find the fact that the Metropolitan's whole basis is to make odd numbered lists a bit shady and a joke to their readers. You'd think that a magazine with readers who are well educated and "leaders" in the community would give their readers more credit. But, they are typically featured next to the magazine tabloids...

I was really expecting the post count to be closer to 100 by now. Maybe the "fuck-you-I-have been-affected-by-suicide-and-this-isn't-funny" crowd got all their typing energy expelled a month or so back when something similar came up.
