Happy Veterans Day. Over three decades, thousands of Marines and others stationed at Camp Lejeune - including my dad - were exposed to water contaminated with toxic chemicals at levels at least 240 higher than what's considered safe. publicradioeast.org/camp-lej…

On a lighter note...Happy Veterans Day to the Army public affairs officer who told me I'm old enough to be his mom, a clear violation of the Geneva Convention.

Much has been written about Adam Hamilton as he challenges Kansas Sen. Roger Marshall but has any outlet mentioned how Hamilton’s church has one of the largest single stained glass windows IN THE WORLD? The artwork depicting Jesus is roughly the size of an NBA court.

There were *three* young WSU runners, two got caught and kicked out and one got away. We saw one of their dads at the game then ran into him again in a Manhattan hotel elevator: His take: “My kids drive me nuts, man.”
We have a young WSU fan running onto the field during the weather delay

A tank failure at a Washington paper mill killed 11 workers and injured at least 8 more. Newly released footage shows the moment the tank failed, spilling thousands of gallons of corrosive chemical that burns skin worse than acid.

Ashley Whitehead, 56, was in line for cotton candy at the Bite of Seattle festival when shots rang out at Seattle Center. She was hit in the pelvis, and before she was taken to the hospital, she told her daughter I love you and that everything would be OK. She died in surgery.

On the, uh, bright side, the USMNT's loss follows a storied history of disappointing sports outcomes in Seattle and who are we to mess with sacred tradition.
