Dear God:

Please help…I am frightened…”an undetermined amount of highly radioactive waste” has spilled in Oregon–Hanford, Oregon to be exact.

But it's OK I'm sure b/c ” Wiegman said the situation did not meet the criteria for an emergency declaration.”

Yeah, highly radioactive waste in the water-supply…no emergency…We Are All Going To Die!

I've been waiting for this for a bit now…and it is finally here!

If “Movie Rage” and Mustard Gas Weapon-leaks didn't frighten you enough, KATU serves up the new scare-fest–Fruit-Flavored Meth. That's right!

They are not going to sit by and let FOX take all the Meth Glory!

EUGENE, Ore. (AP) – What may be a marketing ploy among methamphetamine manufacturers has shown up in Lane County: fruit-flavored meth, aka Strawberry Quick.

Mmmmmm…Strawberry Quick…so enticing–BUT–Oh No! What about the Children?!

Sgt. Clint Riley of the sheriff's department said there was no evidence that the meth had been marketed to children, though.

Close Call Indeed…So what shall we do?

“It's definitely something to keep our eye on. But what it means, I don't know.”

Ahh, keep me eye on–sound advice! We Are All Going To Die!

If you are not going out to see Kurt Vogel Russell kick a$$ in The Thing at Aalto Lounge or drink/party like it's 1997 at Beulahland tonight

…and you just happened to catch the cursed Portland art on Antiques Roadshow, stick around for this (yep, strung it all together).

From PORT:

Simon Schama's Power of Art series winds up today on OPB with Portland's most famous art world personage, Mark Rothko. Rothko attended Lincoln highschool (as did Matt Groening, Mel Blanc and Elliott Smith… a pretty sarcastic bunch) and had his first solo show at the Portland Art Museum in 1933…READ MORE

There are no images here for this “Daily Stank Image Bank”â¬Å¾¢. We could not possibly top the breathtaking pics Jonathan put up of Oakridge over at BikePortland.org.

Message from Nathan at Jace Gace:

Caleb Freese and Justin Gorman from Build Production will be attacking our
walls this August. Together, with their astute color sense and intricate
large scale prints, our walls will be an aesthetic feast for the eyes! The
reception is Aug 3rd 6pm-12am. And it will be up the 3rd-31st.

 Review: Waffle Overkill

As I watched the 2AM rebroadcast of Foreign Exchange (total=4 viewers), I continued to see that the next Antiques Roadshow will be a Portland Affair

…and some lady was scared to sell her cursed art. So, looks good!

Antiques Roadshow

“Portland, Or – Hour 3″

ANTIQUES ROADSHOW concludes its sojourn on the banks of the Columbia River in Portland, Oregon, where appraisers at the Oregon Convention Center net a catch of fascinating objects, including a traditionally carved Hawaiian koa wood bowl so large it probably belonged to royalty.
