In his latest column, Doug Clark predicts the weirdness that has hit the area this year will continue -- and stories will include (for the rest of Doug's column, click here):

•Spokane's colorful downtown art bears are replaced with more familiar sidewalk symbols: shirtless felons on ratty bicycles.

•Due to a publishing mix-up, the latest edition of the black Hagadone telephone directory doesn't contain phone numbers. It is actually a list of all the little people Coeur d'Alene business mogul Duane Hagadone stepped on during his climb to the top.

•The federal judge who was accused of sexually gratifying himself at Spokane's Riverfront Park last month is caught handing himself a subpoena.

Question: Do you have any predictions to make re: what weird stories will close out the year?
