"Hopefully someone tipped him off to that deli in Portland that will totally let you use them to buy forties and scratch-offs."

Darren Butler,
Crop Duster
"Sounds wonderful! According to my pioneering guide, there is more than enough food in Oregon for the worthy adventurer, from plentiful beavers to succulent ducks!

Kristen Stewart,
Focus Puller
"I'd hate to be an Oregonian when it's Transvestite Awareness Week."
