also, the people with the signs are spinning this as a sexual preference issue just cause it happens to be a tool available to them (you know just like when OJ said he was black). This is not necessarily an unfortunate turn of events since more people are likely to be interested now. More »

I believe directly behind the folks in this photo is the law firm renting the downstairs of the Artifex building. If you were to look up one story you'd see an Artifex logo. More »

I think you are right, Kevin. There needs to be some big draw to get people there, then they'll stay and look around. More »

I had been staying open late on Thursdays until 8:00 for a while (Tacoma Art Supply). I think in about 6 months I had 1 or 2 people come in after 6:00. More »
