As Mr. Jumago brought to my attention some time ago, I have blogged incessantly about loitering goth youths outside of a notable coffee shop in Walla Walla called Coffee Perk. These kids stand around and drink alcohol conspicuously out of Nalgene bottles filled with orange juice while scaring away old people. These kids pretty much don't have anything better to do since their isn't any form of entertainment for their ilk in such a small town. No video arcades, no skateparks, no fishing ponds.
I went to Seattle this weekend and attended the Bumbershoot music festival and it was chock full of young kids with nothing better to do, and they were mostly doing what they do in Walla Walla. But some genius figured out how to get them to pay $35 a day to do it. So what Walla Walla really needs is some music festivals so that the weird teenagers can don ponchos and trip out in the grass all day.
