I drove past Ralph's Thriftway this morning and saw a new message on their sign.  I don't remember the exact verbiage, but it was along the lines of "Accepting pharmacist applications. Top salary". 

I wonder if the pharmacist praised within these blogs has moved on... and if so, whether it was voluntary or not?  I'd hate for him to have been forced out because of his moral stand.

Hey folks! The Urban Layers Project will be submitting an RFP application to Thurston County next week, seeking $1 million or so in state funding to design a building, commission a feasibility study and create a solid governing body for the project. I have pasted our proposal below, and I'm looking for feedback. Give me whatever you've got, be it incisive criticism, glowing praise, helpful suggestions, names of folks who might be interested, etc. I promise to use whatever is useful and not take the rest personally. Thanks! (I know it's really long, but I also know that fewer people would read it if I only linked to it, rather than posting the entire text--thanks in advance for your patience.)

Four of us OlyBlog women lounged around in Sylvester Park last evening, I enjoyed. We got a chance to discuss how strange this last week has been and also to make all sorts of exactly perfect decisions for our community at large, I think all four of us should be appointed Mayor(s).

On the way home, the light of the slowly setting sun over Olympia had me in awe, I decided that it appeared as if someone had ladled liquid gold over the city from above. The air was cooling to a comfortable level, folks looked calmer and more at ease, everything and everyone touched by gold.
