Street Mnemonics

Ok, we all know the mnemonic for remembering the downtown street names: "Jesus Christ Made Seattle Under Protest".

What I'm looking for is another for the streets that cross Broadway on Capitol Hill:
Olive St, Howell, Denny, Olive Way/John, Thomas, Harrison, Republican, Mercer, Roy, (optional: Aloha, Prospect, Highland, Galer)

... and another one for the streets in Belltown:
Stewart, Virginia, Lenora, Blanchard, Bell, Battery, Wall, Vine, Cedar, Clay, Broad

Does anyone know any mnemonics for these? If not, feel free to make some up.


Bonus: here's a tip for numbered streets like:
65th Ave NE
NE 65th Ave
The directional letter which is closest to the number tells you which direction it runs. So the first one has the N closest to 65th so it runs north-south. The second has the E closest to 65th so it runs east-west.
