Does Olympic fashion come in size ouch?


Posted at 12:01 am by Katie Mayer, Herald staff

There's no gold medal for fashion at the Olympics, but there's some eye-popping (and budget-shrinking) attire all the same. The swimmers' bodysuits were eye-popping, too, but mostly because they're so tight they squeeze your eyes right out of your head.

If you're feeling green, check out the traveling exhibit on solar power visiting Everett today. Don't expect to see much, though -- the weather forecast calls for rain showers with a 100 percent chance of irony.

The good old days of television: The first half of the third season of "Perry Mason" is out on DVD. Unfortunately, it's a little on the spendy side at $54.99 for the three-disc set. Since the show was in black-and-white, maybe they're charging extra for that lovely rainbow you see when you tilt a DVD back and forth.

A Snohomish farmer is sharing his skills at creating corn mazes. He's learned a few things, such as how long to make the maze and to provide a portable toilet halfway through. Of course, if it gets too busy, the line for the bathroom takes all the mystery out of the first half of the maze.
