On Fridays, the editorial board compiles its weekly Thumbs Up, Thumbs Down editorial for Saturday's Bee. Anytime you've got a nominee for the column, be sure it send it over because we're always looking for good ones. Here's an item I found on the wire that there wasn't space for, but I really liked it, so enjoy it anyway:

Thumbs down to the graffiti artist, Colin R. Carlton, who was trying to tag a sign with graffiti over Interstate 5 on the Ship Canal Bridge in Seattle. The 19-year-old, according to the Seattle Times, fell 20 feet to the road below and survived, apparently without injury. Despite landing on his head, the kid suffered no injuries and was admitted to Harborview Medical Center for observation only, according to a spokeswoman. Carlton had defaced the Department of Transportation sign over the south lanes about midspan and was climbing down when he fell about 4 a.m., said the State Patrol.

And you think your teenager is hardheaded?
