You heal fast!

 

I goofed my post moved to The New and Improved Official Oregon BS thread

 

That's how it used to be between Corvallis and Philomath... now the yuppies are spilling over into Philomath and building new housing tracts there.

 

They even killed the Clemens scholarship because so many yuppies moved in.

 

I saw an advertisement for a documentary about that. I'd like to see it since I'm new to the area and would like some recentish history about oregon. That being said, I'm sure it's a hit piece on the company that was giving out the scholarship. I'll try to get past that part.

I love Vancouver! Mainly because my favorite restaurant Joes Crab shack is there. When the wife and me lived out east we'd frequent the chain often.

I find the Springfield vs Eugene thing amusing. Eugenians always spout off about how backwards and hillbilly Springfield is, but when I'm around Springfield the people are a lot nicer and there's way less stuck up snobby and rude prius drivers. It takes both hands to count how many times I'm cut off in heavy traffic by a maniac in a prius in Eugene. Seriously people I'm in a heavy work van, I can't stop on a dime.

 

^^^ So stop on top a prius!

Eugene is a joke...........Liberal pious snobs, who feel SO superior to everyone else, but have NO clue.
Springfield is where normal, real folks live...........so of course we are all hillbilly's from Springtucky.

 

That's why I hate UofO so much. The reason Eugene has been ruined is because of UofO. Without UofO Eugene and Springfield would be the same.

What's sad is that the same thing is happening in Corvallis. While OSU does offer many useful degrees, they do have their contingent of worthless degrees and the students and professors that go with them.

 

The wife really wanted to go to OSU, but they cancelled her major the year before we moved back. Now she goes to UofO. Hates the drive and some of the hippy kids she has to put up with. Luckily she's finished much of her schooling already and only has a year and a half to go. THANK GOD! Can't wait till she goes back to the working world. Would sure love to have some of that expendable income again!
