Rain delay
And stay out of the left lane: The state says Snohomish County saw 12,881 drivers from other states — mostly from California and other drier states — register their vehicles here this year (Street Smarts, Page A3).
Welcome, neighbors. A friendly reminder: On rainy days, the roads are reserved for natives who grew up with this stuff. (The State Patrol will check your feet to see if your toes are webbed.)
Stephen! Stephen! Stephen! CBS “Late Show” host Stephen Colbert doesn’t agree politically with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, but he does admire Trump’s ability to connect with people. Colbert also said he dropped his satirical conservative persona because he sensed people were tired of divisiveness (Page B4).
That’s funny; Trump adopted his conservative persona because he sensed people wanted more divisiveness.
Don’t know much about history: On this day in 1895, the Lumiere brothers, Auguste and Louis, held the first public showing of their movies in Paris (Today in History, Page B4).
The coming attractions are just about finished, so the brothers’ movie should start any minute now.
