It’s always best to start at the beginning…

  • I’m angry.
    It takes a lot to anger me. When I get angry, I start talking and that’s when people start paying attention. One thing which can push the limits of my patience is injustice. Injustices are fundamentally what this site and blog are going to be about. To get to that point I will need to…
  • The Players.
    My husband and I purchased our home in December of 2013. The property our home is on was a large plat in the City of Seattle. The plat was subdivided and easements put in place, then new homes built in the back of the plat. Our standalone home is the furthest one back from the…
  • Tossing a grenade of entitlement.
    The community we live in sprung forth from a large piece of land in the City of Seattle. The plat was sold to a developer know as Build Urban. The owner of Build Urban (Edson Gallaudet) did what was common at the time and left the old structure on the front of the property and…
  • Here come the floods.
    Shortly after closing on our home, we noticed the pavement used for the driveway and parking lot was not performing as it should. The pavement is pervious, water should move through the pavement and be absorbed into the ground underneath it. The surface of the pavement was also sluffing off and the turning of wheels…
  • OMG, HE’S GAY!!!!!
    I happen to be a gay white guy in America. If people don’t know I am gay, I’m given the same privileges any blonde haired, blue eyed white guy is given in America. However, when they find out I’m gay, those privileges are revoked and I find myself facing the same challenges (or worse) any…
  • Dude, why you recording?
    After I told those in The Compound they couldn’t build over the easement, and thus make our parking spot fundamentally unusable, they went on the warpath. In very short order they started harassing me as I would come and go from my own home. Katie (Drew’s wife) and Patrick were by far the worst. Katie…
  • Patrick Pt. 01
    Introducing my readers to Patrick has been something I’ve been struggling with. For the first couple years, my lawyers, the lawyer representing the four households sued by those in The Compound along with a couple of my neighbors gave me the impression they thought I was nuts or a bit “too sensitive.” I believe the…
  • Hello Stranger (Readers)
    What the hell ever happened to the personal ads and ‘I saw you’ ads in The Stranger? Crap, I just dated myself. I would read those ads religiously! I even placed at least one ‘I Saw You’ and a couple personal ads back in the day. Now I’m really going to date myself… That was…
  • Mask Up Buttercup
    In December of 2019 the first case of COVID-19 was identified in Wuhan, China. In January 2020 the first case in the United States was identified less than twenty miles from my home. It has been nearly two years since the pandemic started and we all received a crash course on what to do in this pandemic.…
  • Holy Masks Up Batman!  
    One more follow-up post on masks in gyms and then I’ll get back to Patrick… In my last post, I shared my experience about mask enforcement at Planet Fitness and how the manager there sided with the anti-maskers who harassed me. A friend of mine immediately stated she would never again do business with Planet…
  • Patrick Pt. 2
    I’m going to let some of my readers down… I’ve been thinking about the Patrick Pt. 2 post for some time and decided to keep it brief. I really want to move on to the meat of this whole shebang which is the lawyers and courts. I also don’t want to lay all my cards…
  • Drew Gillespie
    Drew Gillespie is the owner and president of Pike Brewing Company. This site details how Drew and his family destroyed the community they moved into.
  • I’m still here!
    Some of you are asking… I don’t have covid nor have I been tossed in jail. I’m simply busy and juggling priorities. I have a day job and I’m also launching another blog which has been in the works for well over a year now. This blog has proven so successful it made me realize…
  • Here’s an update on Drew Gillespie and The Compound.
    I’m still around and will now have more time to devote to this endeavor; however, it will be much lower on my priority list. I started a new blog for which there is a paid advertisement at the end of this post. That blog will take precedent over this one. I also have family and…
