The Sun in Seattle?


Do you remember that scene in Will Smith's "Independence Day" where the UFO's first enter our atmosphere. He comes out onto his lawn and sees all his neighbor's looking up, mouths open, aghast.

I walked out of my house this morning and felt like I was in that scene.

People on capitol hill were standing in the middle of the street, not moving. blinking.
dazed.
Blinking.
Dazed.
Befuddled.
Smiling...

A woman dropped her FEED grocery bag on the ground, shattering bottles of Kumbacha inside.
And then, music began to play:


Men and women began dancing and laughing and frolicking! THE SUN!
THE SUN! It's still alive!
