Ten reasons to enjoy the rain
By Ken Schram
SEATTLE - I'm sometimes asked how come I don't come up with an occasionally positive commentary.
Seems some people are under the mistaken impression that I'm always grumpy, cantankerous and sarcastic.
Well, just to prove them wrong, I've decided that today I want to look on the bright side of things.
With that, I humbly offer the top ten reasons for why we should actually be enjoying all the wind and rain we're getting
Number 10: The storm has washed away the word "MetroNatural" that was painted on top of the Space Needle.
Number 9: It's fun to splash pedestrians as you drive down the street.
Number 8: Can't get enough of that video of salmon crossing the road.
Number 7: Fewer panhandlers because cardboard signs just get soggy.
Number 6: No more door belling by political candidates 'cause they're weather wimps.
Number 5: Not as many bicyclists to share the road with.
Number 4: Ducks swimming in Seattle's pot holes look so darn cute.
Number 3: We need more mud right before the election.
Number 2: Traffic hardly sucks more than when the sun is in our eyes.
And the number 1 reasons to enjoy all this rain: All the crack-heads and hookers stay inside which means if you really want to, you can actually use that $700,000 toilet down in Pioneer Square!
There... how's that for positive!
