the fat of the land: I ditched my car 18 months ago because my Seattle rent was too all-consuming. In that time, I've gained weight! What up? Well, I love to walk the mile from my house to Roy's BBQ in Columbia City for a BBQ pulled-pork sandwich. Not to ...

Yay for you: I've been meaning to pick this up since I saw a piece about it in the NYT Magazine. I'm looking forward to checking out the local links via the comments here. P.S. I think Detroit is the old Seattle. A working-class cultural capitol. I dream of it.
