Get crackin', Oregonians!

You'd think that with an "election of a lifetime" and a hotly contested U.S. Senate race on our hands that Oregon voters would be flooding the elections offices with their mail-in ballots. But no! Turns out that Oregon -- which, "uniquely among the 50 states ... conducts the entirety of its voting by mail" -- is also uniquely behind in voter turnout so far.

Friends: Get those ballots in the mail now! You have until this Friday to safely mail them in time to be counted. After then, take your ballot to any of these locations.

Let's have no surprises come next Tuesday, okay?

Sleep tight

 

It was only a matter of time before WWP was ordered to undergo testing for the rafter-shifting snoring that has vexed his sleepmates over the years. ("Really, I'd rather sleep on a train track ...")

Tonight, the piper came calling, and WWP finds himself in a Clackamas motel room with every spare surface of skin wired for sound -- literally. Enjoy the short photo show in the Flickr button to the right.

O, the indignity of it all.

Autumn leaves

...or leaf, as the case might be. A great day to be alive, and living on the Pacific Northwest, no?

The falling leaves

Since WWP hasn't been in much of a mood to post lately, there might as well be photos. Here's one from Saturday, taken at Elk Rock at the Bishop's Close (Episcopal), near Dunthorpe. The leaves say it all.
