When you see caution/police tape…
Filed under General
Walk away! On Friday my office was involved in a division picnic at Cook Park in Tigard. When they arrived they found sections of the park roped off with caution/police tape. One of the activities of the day was people could go canoeing down the Tualatin River. The picnic ended up moving to another park, but that park was up-stream from Cook Park, so those canoeing ended up going by Cook Park. Anyways, the “person canoeing” in this story is someone I supervise. Weird.

Translations
Filed under Family
Two translations for you from the Judah Language Institute:
- No-bah-wat-ton: “No I don’t want to” or “No I’m all done”
- A-bow Gee: Evil Genius
The “a-bow gee” stems from him being able to work the TV and DVD player, and his mother calling him an evil genius.

This I Believe
Filed under Basketball, Blazers, Family
NPR has a segment called “This I Believe.” I gave Judah my rough impression of NPR as I got dressed on Friday:
“I’m wearing a red shirt today. Do you know why? [silence] Because we can believe in basketball again.”
If you don’t know what I was referring to, perhaps you should read this and this.
