If you're using Plurk, you may not want to see your karma score. It can be annoying to watch it yo-yo.

(More ferns, different pines.) * The locks and salmon ladder. Goofy, but amusing. We saw some great big boats go through the locks, which thrills my inner 3 year old. * Seattle drivers. Already seen one hit a cyclist. No stop lines at intersections so people apparently just pull out into traffic randomly. Unimpressed. * Seattle pedestrians. They outdo U-M students in terms of strolling out ...
