Who should be on the Capitol Hill Seattle $1 bill?

Write-in vote: Black Sun a,k.a, Volunteer Park Donut
|
|
| Picture it: the Black Sun sculpture with the Volunteer Park Reservoir, the Space Needle, and if we're lucky, the Olympics in the background. | |

| Haha, I wrote in the VP donut before I saw your comment. And it would fit perfectly in the circle. Go Donut! | |

| Boebucks should win, if only because, during the Solstice Parade at least, Boe can be seen buck naked! | |

More write-ins
|
|
| I like putting Cal Anderson himself on the bill, or Ellen Forney, or a light rail car. | |

Um, yeah...
|
|
| I don't know that I really love any of these. Maybe the Volunteer Park Observatory would be better. But that said, I feel that Boe the scarf dancer is the best choice of any of these. | |

Dan Savage and his attack mode is the last community builder on Capitol Hill. Horrible choice, if he wins, this business will opt out. Cal or crows would be fine, big flock of crows near the park. |

Dan Savage should really not be on there. But aside from that, this is such a cool idea. And no, I don't live on the Hill yet, but will in the next couple months. Can I still vote? |

You need a runoff vote
|
|
| It looks like the winner will get around 1/4 of the vote. That means roughly 75% of the voters will be disappointed. That further means that you should have a runoff vote featuring the top two or three. Go Nutty! | |

| luckily, none of this is actually happening. but if it ever does, you're right to envision multiple denominations: that way everyone's happy. | |

I'm with Comrade Bunny
|
|
| The Black Hole Sun sculpture is a great idea, but it would require complex legal approval. I like the Volunteer Park water tower suggestion that I believe was offered on the stranger's slog. Either way, no people. Please. | |

Top three?
|
|
|
If the competition is close for first (which it looks like it will be), we should do multiple denominations/versions of the bill, one version for each of the top three(?) images. Hee hee, collect all three! I agree with Dod and other commenters on the "no people" thing. |

My suggestion
|
|
| How about a logo that includes a crackpipe, a bloody used heroin syringe, and a penis inserted into a male anus? | |
