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.

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.
