Slog - Comments on Strangercrombie Hooray http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/12/strangercrombie_recap In case you weren't following the action on Friday, our annual 10-day charity auction was a a huge success this year. We raised $60,000 for FareStart. You'll see a wrap-up in Thursday's paper, and you can see exactly how much everything sold for here. A man named Jeff won the Guest Star on Slog auction. He says he looks forward to defending the honor of West Seattle and the Alaskan Way Viaduct. You'll learn more about him when he writes for Slog for seven days starting January 7. Giant, glowing, red-hot thank yous to all of you who bid and...

Way to go Jeff!

I helped with some of her presentation stuff about 4 years ago, for only about 15 minutes. She seems the type that is super smart about just one thing, and has no common sense about the rest of the world. At least that is the impression that I had from our brief meeting, and I'm big on first impressions. Even if she is kinda cute.

Or maybe you'll learn absolutely nothing about me.

I have to say though that I DON"T LIKE the photos in this Strangercrombie. They look like Macy ads. Unusual for the Stranger who usually takes less tame, more game photos!!!!!

We were too cheap to get involved in the bidding war. Congrats, Jeff!

and what happened to briefs and jock strap pix at the Stranger, is Dan getting too old? looked like long under wear bottoms without the interesting stains

with a little work this GOOD THING, thanks Martha, could go to three or four times more

like food banks for the money - if you are down and out - it starts with a bag of free food --- thanks to the Stranger, good work, really good good good work

The Stranger is the kindest, most generous Newspaper in Seattle.

$60,000 is a lot of money to throw at poor people. My friend just spent $75,000 putting in a five thousand square foot S&M dungeon into his Montlake home. So spending 60Gs on the poor is really making a sacrifice when it could be spent on things that are a lot more fun but a lot less "do gooder".

My Temple in New York raised 1.5 million for the Anti-Defamation league last year. Maybe The Stranger could consider a contribution to the anti-defamation league this year too?

Mazel Tov on being the only Seattle publication that feeds the homeless and makes Seattle way freaky sexy!

But, indeed, three cheers to the Stranger.

I've clicked Jeff's link a couple times in my life... I've never gotten past the first sentence of the first post... The combination of glaring orange and massive quoting? Migraine.

Thus far, a tragic disappointment... Please prove me wrong.

Prove us wrong dude... slog about something more interesting than mass transit..... pleeeeeezzzzzzeeee. And I live in West Seattle so good for you. Now do us proud....

It's the writing giving you the headache - the colors have nothing to do with it.

Wanna be Mayor of West Seattle too??? I sobered up and realized I really don't have 49 friends who want to go to Mission.

Next time, we should lay off the booze when on eBay - I thought I was bidding on the golf outing.
