Platypus


Oregon State University vs. University of Oregon in the Civil War game.
Ducks and Beavers. As in the Duck Billed Platypus.
What a freaky looking beast.
Back in 1959 some dude carved a trophy of the Platypus to be used as a traveling trophy between the two schools. Two years later it was lost. Well..........it has turned up once again. And looks to be going to the winner.
Go Beavers!

They Represented The Lollipop Guild




Come out, come out, wherever you are........etc.
She'll be hist...she'll be hist...she'll be hist-o-r-y.
So the remaining Munchkins finally got their Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame last week. Not bad. It only took Hollywood 68 stinking years. The Wizard of Oz came out in 1939. But to make it worse, they got one star to share among themselves. The least they could have done is give them their own star. These little dudes are Hollywoods history from the golden era. They deserved better.
May the flying monkeys fly up the tail feathers of the Walk of fame people.

The blog of blogs

Once upon a time there was a very small lobster who had anal leakage. So the doctor sent her to the Disney Princess On Ice. While there she realized that if she had gone to an OSU game she would have learned about the "California Mexicans" and perhaps eaten so much mexican food that it would stop the leakage.
But since she didn't, she decided that after the ice show she would visit a ranch-type home in NE Portland she had heard about hoping it would help. It didn't.
So on she went. Searching with her Mother, dressed in a white robe thingy with something in her hair. They decided that the place to go was the Chicago Cubs stadium where they bumped into Condi. And of course Condi was of no help either.
So.....off to Scotland they went. Lobster girl and Mom. While there, they noticed William Wallaces family dancing in the street to the tune of Braveheart. They couldn't handle it so they went out on a boat in stormy weather to seek the advice of Nessie the Loch Ness Monster.
No Nessie either.
They flew back to the states to seek the advice of Joey Wong at OSU. His only advice was to hit and run really hard. Not the advice they were looking for to cure the leakage.
But they did have one last thought. So off to Portland. They went to see the new band Mirrors. They played so good and so loud that the little lobster began to click its little pincher things to the beat.
The next thing we new the whole place was clicking and dancing.
And she was cured of the dreaded anal leakage.

So, not only is going to an OSU game fun because of the football, but the things you see and overhear is priceless.

Such as....


"California is Oregons Mexico"

"I see orange people"

Then there was a UCLA fan who made a comment about the weather (it was a little rainy that day), and someone said "yeah? well at least we don't have forest fires". Ooh burn. Get it? Burn!

Within a few weeks, California was on fire. Oops.

Twenty two days.


Just Twenty two days until combat shopping at 6AM.


But more importantly........twenty two days until the Mac house becomes Christmasy.


Yeah baby...


So if for some reason you cannot locate me, you may want to check the yards as likely I will be out there kicking raindeer.


Merry Christmas!
