The rewards of neighborhood blogging and community involvement are small. But the other night, I received this thank you from a true Capitol Hill hero.


Yes, neighbors -- I received an autograph from Boe the scarf dancer. Things like that make it all worth it.

If you can't read the card in the image, here's the description of the services Boe offers:
Seize the day... Celebrate it!
Adult only & all ages scarf dancing, almost anytime & any where for you. Adult only & psychedelic, surrealistic, abstract, acrylic painting & murals
CLEAN-SOBER-TOBACCO FREE.
vegan Option HIGH ON LIFE: JUST DO IT!
Just do it, indeed. Thanks Boe -- you made my week and blew my mind.

The famous neighbors of Capitol Hill Seattle
By jseattle Views (0) | Comments (4) | ( 0 votes)
Capitol Hill Seattle Blog has a lot of Facebook friends -- we like to call them neighbors. You can be one, too, btw. FB is a way for CHS to stay in touch with y-o-u and every now and then something interesting pops up there.

For example, yesterday, we became FB buddies with Project Runway's Jack Mackenroth. He joins a herd of Capitol Hill celebrities in our neighbor list like recording artist Ali Marcus, Seattlest Dan, Adam Loving -- inventor of the Zuckerbuck!, and Josh Bis, owner of the world record for filling our RSS reader with his posts, thoughts, doings and wants.

But we suspect more celebrities are lurking in our Facebook Friend Wheel.

We know you're out there -- so, tell us, what are you famous for?

Meet your Capitol Hill neighbor -- Project Runway's Jack

If you're planning to watch the new season of Project Runway on the big screen at 22 Doors, root for the hometown kid. Turns out, Project Runway Season 4 designer Jack Mackenroth is from right here in the 'hood and his sister, bless her heart, is a CHS reader.

Of course, being the skeptical sorts, at first we didn't believe jo when she said she was Jack's sister. Then we got this e-mail from the designing man himself:
Hey there--My sister sent me your post about the PR viewing. Have fun!!!! Cheer for me. My family home is on 16th ave east. I went in there a couple times when it was Jack's bistro.

rock on!!

So there you have it. Our neighborhood has skin in the game. Maybe if Jack does (did?) well, he'll open a men's fashion boutique on 15th Ave.

Celebrity I Saw U on 15th Ave
By jseattle Views (0) | Comments (2) | ( 0 votes)
We have never done a Celebrity I Saw U here on CHS -- mainly because we haven't seen celebrities other than Dan Savage wandering on 15th Ave and Link the Zelda Hunter doesn't make it this far up the hill.

But we definitely noticed all 6'10" of Chris Wilcox and his pals hanging around 15th Ave last night. Not sure what the power dunker was up to -- maybe waiting for his turn at Hopvine's open mic Wednesday. Our first celebrity item makes us feel a little dirty. Sorry to invade your privacy, Chris, but we've got a blog to maintain here.
