You might have noticed that the coffee price jumped by .50. The little deli where I normally get my cheap coffee was closed. I have my fears that its closed for good - its June 1 and it was the very last business inside the Alaska Building which is in the process of its being stripped and renovated. You can't walk past the building along the sidewalk with all the construction, dumpsters, fences, and orange cones surrounding it. There's a big sign and a little pathway to my little deli coffee place, so I was hoping. Fingers crossed that the owner got sick or something.
But there was a little action near that deli. A Seattle police office came out of the inside of the construction, holding something between two fingers. He got out a paper bag from the trunk.
"Looks like you found something," I said.
He walked over.
"We found this inside," he said. "One of the construction guys called it in."
It was a rusted out little Saturday night special. The gun barrel was so rusted out that they couldn't get a serial number. The black handle looked, I swear, like it was made of Bakelite.
The police have no idea if it was part of a crime, without the serial number they couldn't trace it. It will get destroyed.
story for all you gun guys out there
