Codi and I were invited to a birthday party at Waluga Park today. I'd never heard of Waluga Park, even though I'd driven by it dozens of times while living in Lake O. It's one of those hidden, off-the-road parks that seems to get little use, which is a ...

We've been driving a ...

Today is my birthday... #34! Codi planned a great surprise visit to an arcade/fun park in Wilsonville. It was awesome - we had pizza, played mini golf, rode go-carts, bumperboats (where we got into a really fun water fight with some Russian guys - Pavel & Anatoly) and ...

"We've heard a great deal about Republican "fat cats," and how the Republicans are the party of big contributions.

This is a really funny Flash cartoon, voice talent by a really funny guy I met a few times. Good, clean political humor. (I hope people still know who Woody Guthrie was!!)
