Spinasse Opens. No, Really.: It's the ambiguous pricing and menu description that is going to get them in trouble eventually. Nowhere on the menu does it read, $33 per person $47 per person - We were told, for example, it's family dining, it all comes out together. If you order the Principale Menu it's $47 HELLO PEOPLE, EVEN THE SERVERS DON'T SAY, PER PERSON. Sure, that adage may work with Italians after a few glasses of grappa, but c'mon, you've got to spell it out A LOT better than that to Americans in an American economy. Worth $215.00 for three? Nope. - Submitted by ajx

Barack Obama: Born In the U.S.A.: The reason this wont go away is that the posted document is not certifiable, verifiable and has no traceable information as to hospital location. Obama has 3 lawsuits in federal and state courts demanding he demonstrate that his was not foreign born and he Obama has so far refused to give up the requested documents. This is retarded to not give access unless you were in fact hiding something - like being foreign born. - Submitted by Steve Marquis

The Killers, Wednesday, April 22: It probably wasnaE™t the smartest move for The KillersaE™ frontman Brandon Flowers to announce just two weeks before his Seattle concert that he thought Kurt Cobain and grunge took the fun out of rock naE™ roll. But then again, Flowers has never been one to shy away from controversy. HeaE™s pissed off a good amount of people by running his mouth, including the guys from The Bravery and Fall Out Boy. Flowers is a shit talker. But being that heaE™s the handsome face of the most commercially successful act to emerge out of the post-punk revival movement, he can get away with it. The KillersaE™ first two albums sold over 13 million copies, and their third studio effort, Day & Age, is a sleek synth-pop/rock album that indicates the band has a good chance of surviving when the aE˜80s resurgence finally fades. The flashy Las Vegas quartet with an affinity for wearing pressed suits and sequins strut their stuff this evening. Just donaE™t expect any covers of aEœSmells Like Teen Spirit.aE With Wild Light. WaMu Theater, 800 Occidental Ave. S. 8 p.m. $33. All ages. Note by ERIKA HOBART
