It looks like Horse Sex is very popular in Seattle. In fact it looks like Horse Sex is very popular on the Internet in general. I wonder what will happen if I repeat the key words Horse Sex a bunch of times.

The story last summer about the man who died from a perforated colon while having sex with a horse in Enumclaw was by far the year's most read article.

What's more, four more of the year's 20 most clicked-upon local news stories were about the same horse-sex incident. We don't publish our Web-traffic numbers, but take it from me — the total readership on these stories was huge.

So much so, a case can be made that the articles on horse sex are the most widely read material this paper has published in its 109-year history.
