Frankly, it's a good thing you're not moving here from California. You'd be tarred and feathered. Our official state motto is: "Don't Californicate Oregon". Juulie's also right about Perry Mason. A local channel has been running it M-F at noon for about 40 years. Whenever anyone asks them when they'll stop, they say "when people stop watching". Actually, it's pretty comforting to have something like that you can rely on every day. And...the acting wasn't half bad.

Also, Beaverton probably grows the prettiest girls (except for Juulie, of course, who grew up in Portland). My wife grew up in Beaverton and, two years after HS, was Miss Beaverton in the Miss Oregon pageant. Hey - you didn't think I'd marry some woofer, did you? Beaverton is also home to the Tualatin Hills Officials Assn. They're probably the largest rec assn. in the state. They work bazillions of kids and adult rec games. If you want, I'm sure you can work our kids rec league here in Tigard even if you live in Beaverton. We have a couple of guys who do that.

Actually, there is a situation here in Oregon in which you pump your own gas. It's at those commercial card-lock stations. That's the only place, however. BTW - every time someone tries to get the law changed, they get smacked upside the head by all the Fire Marshals in the state.

Mark, one thing I forgot to mention in the list of political hot points was the kicker. How could I, at this time of year? Bud will definitely need to be brought up to date on that little doozy!

Personally, I support the kicker. I feel an analogy would be going into a store and buying something that costs $15. If you give the clerk a $20 bill, you expect $5 change. Oh yeah - your change would be exactly $5 in Oregon because we have no sales tax. YIPPEE!!!
