Let me just say this about that: Crowds of protesters at the Port of Seattle, who are hoping to drive off an oil-drilling rig, forced U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry to move a planned speech on trade Tuesday from the Seattle port to the Boeing plant in Renton. Port officials said they had their hands full as it was.
So, while the protesters haven’t been able to force out an oil rig, they did keep a drone out of Seattle.

Say good night, Dave: Talk show veteran David Letterman steps away from his desk as “Late Night with David Letterman” draws to a close tonight at 11:30 p.m. on CBS.
In tribute we offer the top 5 things we liked about Dave’s show:
5: It kept bandleader Paul Schaffer from playing ‘80s hits in the lounge of a Holiday Inn near you.
4: Stupid Pet Tricks supported the nation’s dog-treat industry.
3. Stupid Human Tricks made us feel better about ourselves, because we weren’t “that guy.”
2. He wasn’t Jay Leno.
And the No. 1 thing we liked about Dave’s show: I have no joke here; I just want to say, “Thanks, Dave.”
