AFTER a long summer season on the East Coast running the New York surf camps and trying to make the best out of every waist high wave that came in, Will and Cliff Skudin snapped and flew west for a swell in the Pacific Northwest.
Hurricane season was fun (think Quiksilver Pro New York finals day swell) writes Will, but never delivered that one big day. Eagerly we awaited the passing summer months and needless to say Cliff, my older brother, and I were really thirsty for some Pacific juice come fall. After watching three or four storms almost send us over, one storm popped up which looked too inviting to turn down.
Cliff Skudin demonstrating his commitment and approach on this early morning entry
Someone is using jhollen and impersonating me on Magic Seaweed. I am Jeff Hollen,and I live at Agate Beach,Oregon. I have lived here since 1950. I just created an account to let you all know the "jhollen" who has been making inane comments is not me.
Attn. moderator: I would like the IP address of the username jhollen.
ps. I'd like to make a comment....... I am "Jeff Hollen's wife - with the dog - who... by the way has NEVER walked the dog WITH my husband!.... I DARE you people to use your real names! And............ you people are arguing about Agate Beach??? ... seriously?
Jeff I just did a google search and there are 3 jhollens in Lincoln county. Another quick search revealed 11 jhollens in Oregon. I think your safe, it's not you. I couldn't believe how many jsmiths there are. I guess the point being is you shouldn't presume that you are the only one with those initials. I believe this petty argument is centered around Lincoln city and the so called tow surfers.
The person who was using jhollen in the earlier comments described how they lived here at Agate Beach,took walks with their wife and dog. That narrows it down. The other two jhollens in the area are my wife and son. There is no mistake about someone trying to impersonate me. The impersonator is upset at another surfer and accused him of drug crimes, and also what they consider to be surf crimes. I don't really care about their arguments, but the impersonator brought my name and identity into the fray. I was alerted to this by someone who reads these comments; I have not previously looked at Magic Seaweed except for an occasional surf forecast. By that time the defamatory comments had been removed from the site. I don't know what all was said, except from what has been relayed to me by the people who saw the comments. By the way,defamation is a tort that carries punitive damages as a remedy, and punitive damages don't even go away in bankruptcy.
You luddites seem to forget that, while being interested in the 'Big Wave' phenomenon, most surfers are localised shortboard small-wave sluts who can't afford more than one board, never mind travelling all over the world several times a year in search of the perfect wave. Oregon sounds like a nice place, but there are other much more attractive (sunny, warm water, cheaper, no hillbillies with blunderbusses etc etc) destinations for the few who manage to save hard enough to get a trip going. Nice viewing, nice article, but you can keep Oregon to yourselves for my money
i'm tempted to get on a flight straight away just to piss these hippie hillbilly reprobates off who think their little patch is a personal possession. Hitler started a world war with the same philosophy, the 'fatherland' and all that tripe
Turns out "surfobserver" isn't an impartial observer after all. She's part of the production crew and cohort of most of the others who are supporting these guys in this discussion.
It's really sad that tow surfing and big wave riding has been affected by the meth. Peter Mel,flea,Adam R looking at 5 yrs in prison. Makes me wonder who is really winning these contest. While not everyone is using, it is rampant here in Oregon also! Lincoln city has seen a huge rise in meth and crime. Just check the papers crime section. You will find mostly sex crimes and drug related. Never see a stolen car or bank robbery. Just theft and drugs. A few years ago 3 surf shops all where broken into like the many cars here in Lincoln city. Although one of shops is suspect as an insurance scam.
No George it's not all good. Maybe it is with "the real jhollen", but most of us are 100% opposed to what you're doing to our home. If you choose to forsake your own tribe in favor of money, travel, fame, and a worldwide audience of net surfers, that's your choice. Just be clear about how it affects others and how it will affect you. It won't be all good.
I think it's hilarious that you think Oregon is yours. Maybe you should build a fence around it. A really tall one. Then everyone inside the fence could get "oregon" tattooed on their bellies just so everyone is clear about who lives where. Anyone caught inside the fence without a tat would be taken by train to the gas chambers. I think you're brilliant!
pic 9 is dope, not the Oregon you ever get to see. Usually the camera isn't actually close enough to the surfer/wave, or so clean an barreling. yummy yellow is the way to go to also. Good work!
For those of you worried about over crowding, think again! There have been 4 Great White Shark stories in the last month in Oreogn. Here's the most recent with Bobby Gumm.

George you rock, nice interview and coverage for you in this clip.
I have become your biggest fan! Love your personality.
Keep up the good work and stay safe. - Jodi from Oregon coast, oh and I surf too.
Love the internet....... except for when it turns in to a venue to spew hate and venom at fellow members of our tribe. Jhollen, NWSurfer and whoever else, you are entitled to an opinion and you certainly can disagree with a course of action, but the verbal attacks and attempted character assassination of your fellow surfer? Sad.
FYI: Latest shark attack in the Pacific Northwest. We are all soo happy Bobby was okay. Board, not ok. Everyone be safe out there. Much love. http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=fhno-O_kMHk
I been through this article in detail and i do not see Goerge mentioned anywhere. am i issing something?? How the F&ck did he become the one to eat all the shit???? JHollen do you even surf?? or did you just join the site to get on the band wagon??? I think people may want to punch you in the face now!!! Oh one last thing POT does not equal meth!!! so which one is it???
Your right, our anger and hatred should be evenly spread amongst these evil towbromancers. Eric Akiskalian is a pathetic self promoter. How much do you pay your Hood River photographer to take photos of you? Kinda funny.
Goerge, Good on you bro for your comment. For me that shows your true character... the o's have really tried to take you and yet your response is very humble. Dont think you would be charging if you were a meth addict.. Dont think you'd be doing much except snorting and spending $'s if you were hitting the coke hard... Like siri said - let the surfing do the talking, and funny enough i catch the vibe that everyone that has a dic thing to say seems to like watching from the shore when its on.... where the F7ck were you all for this swell... Holding blankey and sucking thumb maybe! GOERGE I WILL SAY IT FOR YOU -F&CK YOU ALL - Paddle out when its large next time and lets see who charges harder - so called meth lungs and all-
George charges. Thats not the issue. CHARGE without the camera....thats the issue. Plenty of us do, in fact it is a NW tradition. Enjoy don't Exploit. Fame is for fools.
I have nothing to hide from anyone.I love and accept everyone unconditionally. I'm filled with the holy spirit. The next time u see me, do with me what you will. P.S. I don't even own a camera, or even know how to use one. (but I am a fast learner)
JHollen.....Wow, that is so cool JHollen! How much extra Lincoln County taxes do you pay to OWN your own street? Because, George pays those same County taxes, does that mean George owns a part of that street too????? If that is the case, you guys are Lincoln County buddies serving the same system. Enjoy the thought.
Change happens whether we like it or not. However, with that being said, there is no way that an article like this, with waves like this, is going to blow up any spot up here. These spots are as fickle as they get, and most of the people talking smack are not even out there to back themselves up when they do break. In my experience George charges when most of the people are running for the bathroom and their blankie's. So if anybody really has a problem with this measly article on a 10 ft day, they should paddle out next time at either of the two spots and let their surfing do the talking. Ooh, P.S. Just because some one is energetic does not mean they do meth, if these guys were, they would not be out there.
Which one is Goerge in the pic on the last page? Is he the one with Oregon tated on his gut??? F7ck this has been the single most entertaining commentary i have experienced.. Someone should call 911....
Makes for very interesting reading must say... Drug dealing, wave thieving, pimping - seems like the place not to be
and such interesting people... inspired me to get South Africa Tat'd the side of my face and start peddling meth...lol
Malou - With all due respect, I also would appreciate it if they wouldn't mention Oregon. I agree completely. The reality is when the surf does get good down here, which isn't often, there is nobody around. I surf alone as much as anyone, guaranteed. But it would be nice to have a couple of shark decoys out bobbing around with me. I don't need a whole herd of people packed into one area like your situation up North. I'm sorry that's the way it is. It's obviously frustrating. That area has always been crowded ever since I was a little kid. That's the main reason why I never relocated there. Fortunately, our area, the ocean conditions weed out most because they can't even make it out. I have no harsh words for anyone. Tons of respect for everyone up North and am very appreciative of the scraps that I do get when I am in that neck of the woods. So, Malou, come join us on the next big swell. It'll be fun. Safe surfing.
You'd "appreciate it if they wouldn't mention Oregon"? Simple answer: Stop sending them your pictures and stories. Is it that hard to figure out? Be careful what you ask for.
He expected exactly what he got. A long fun day out in the surf with friends and new friends and they were all stoked. No one else was out so who cares. As far as pointing at the tattoo. George lives in Oregon and it was a cool tattoo.
And by the way Magicseaweed sucks ass. Malou, you checked MSW and saw an article that offended you....then your part of the problem as well. Find a site that doesn't force users to tag a photo with a location. I'd love to see this site go away but I don't think it's going to happen, and as much as I hate to admit it, they've actually gotten way better at forecasting.
But we don't forecast for secret spots, so how can that be an issue? Unlike every other pretender site. What you want to do is remove the internet, not the biggest site that takes it's responsibility not to expose secrets very seriously. Now imagine if we were replaced by idon'tgiveatoss.com
I don't have a problem with Surfline because they didn't create a site that directly links user content to a specific location, and here's the biggie, THEY DON'T MENTION OREGON IN THE HEADER OF AN ARTICLE OR THE CAPTION OF A PHOTO! I'f you'd grown up here you'd understand how sensitive some guys are about it. I'm not an ass to traveling surfers. I'll gladly share waves with them. I just think you make it too easy for them to get the scoop on certain locations, and more importantly, you and Eric are making enemies of old friends. Everyone else is just surfing and could care less if the photographer is around, but you two are making a good group of guys look like glory sluts to their fellow locals.
I'm well aware that we are in the information age and nothing will ever be the same, there are no secrets anymore, but you, ED-MSW have the power to end all this controversy by simply saying west coast. Think about it, if NW surfer wants to complain about that, then he's the one calling out the location.
Oregon is a state the size of many small countries, it is not secret spot, it has secret spots. They are not published by us, but i'm very sure they are easy to find elsewhere on the net. This a simple story about some guys and a wave 99% percent of guys, you included no doubt, can't surf.
The fact that you don't publish secret spots is not the issue. The issue is everytime you use the word Oregon it's like you kicked a bees nest. Surfing mag, Transworld, and Surfline don't do it, why do you? Thanks for that last comment. It really proves my point that you and Eric are the problem. I was told that after all of last years drama Eric had agreed to stop using Oregon and just say west coast or Pacific Northwest at most. What happend to that? This seems like a simple compromise. Guys like nw surfer and malou are very real, very legit dudes, and now thanks to you and Erics lack of sensitivity he will have to deal with them when he goes out of the area to surf. All because he simply went surfing.
Ed- "This a simple story about some guys and a wave 99% percent of guys, you included no doubt, can't surf." Funny you should say that to billbill since I have "no doubt" you're wrong about that. Here's the thing; he has a good point and you are showing some ignorance in at least not listening to his advice, rather than trying to downplay him as a surfer. You're right, OR is bigger than most European countries, however beyond the US, we are relatively unknown. In my experience, people I have met while traveling internationally usually ask me "is that in the states?" when I tell them where I'm from. So ask yourself, why not just say "West Coast, or Northwest"? if you must have these articles? What is it going to hurt? Those who know where it is will know, and those who don't, don't need to. Makes sense, right?
Why not call Oregon PNW? Because it's ridiculous that's why. Oregon is not a secret spot and there's round of the Big Wave World Tour here. As soon as Gary Linden starts calling it PNW I shall too.
My work here is done. Thank you Ed for showing your ignorance and lack of respect. A contest is one thing. Don't know why but they don't cause the endless rants that your front page "Oregon First!", "New York to Oregon!" articles do. Surfline currently has 3 photos of Oregon running in the current articles on the front page. Not one of them says Oregon. Take a clue from the professionals who have been around long before you.
We are being consistent, if they are doing what you say then they are not. It's simple -- we will not be bullied by a minority into taking a farcical stance, pandering to semantics.
There is no drama when the big wave tour comes to town cuz the guys like billbill and his following prob like to rub shoulders with the A-listers! But as soon as the locals bring exposure, they get all pissy. As us girls always tell our dudes. Stop getting your panties in a bunch! More drama here then on jersey shores! I'm reading double standards and I sence some envy as well cuz big wave locals are doing what they choose to do. That is the bottom-line! billbill, show your true colors on the next big swell and go paddle the reef. I'm sure they would cart you out there. Oh and billbill before you run your mouth, know your facts. Surfline runs 'OREGON' in their features and list the names of spots all the time. take note,

George is the man! Loved ya in the last clip. U r sooo funny. Keep it up. - Jodi Oregon surfer
Seriously Ed? That's all you can come up with as a response? "It's ridiculous?" Easy enough to out a place from across the world, right mate? Did you or Jodi read anything billbill had to say? If you did, you would have noticed he is not trying to stir up controversy, and instead came up with a simple way of silencing the haters, because if they have any problem with an article, they are the ones calling the location into the limelight. Also, Jodi, before YOU run your mouth off, try figuring out how to write complete sentences. Billbill actually stuck up for George in a comment above, and you're bashing him as jealous? The two links you posted were for the BWWT, which actually has been a source of drama and controversy since it's inception.
It is ridiculous to think a state is in some way secret, it's not, it has secrets. To pander to that notion is farcical and that is our stance. Obviously you disagree which is a shame but I really don't think we're getting anywhere.
You are right, it is ridiculous to think that a state is a secret, it is not. It is however not very well known. I only argue the other side to try and reason with you because I feel like you have the opportunity to quell the haters on here, and put any and all spot or area naming in their own court. If you don't name the state, then not only do you give the haters no substance to make an argument off of, but you also are not going to piss off anyone that likes seeing these articles up anyway. Seems like a win-win right?
Have to say I'm with Ed on this ...Ireland is smaller than Oregon..Anyway I just looked at the video of these surfers...to be honest they all look like complete twats.
Jeez these Oregan ou's (see what I did there eh.., eh?) are taking themselves a bit serious hey? If you think you're not part of planet earth, maybe you should set yourselves up with a secret wave machine somewhere and keep it to yourselves. Welcome to evolution.
ed-msw, the problem here is that the actions of a selfish few affect all other surfers in this area. To those who claim these type of comments are venomous hate rants, think again. The real hate comes from the 6 or 7 individuals who willingly sell out coastline that belongs to all of us without a care for the rest of the surfing population. FYI there are many pics of Oregon secret spots on your site, the scum bags that crave attention sneak em in at will, and despite outcry from the majority, they remain posted. Why should the real surfers in Oregon remain silent while these few bring unwanted attention to our area? Anyone who has lived here for a few years soon finds that there is little to look forward to, and the one thing that makes the long waits for good surf tolerable is the lack of crowd,cameras,bro-brah scene. It's what makes this place special and sites like this and sellfish kooks posting and sending away for pros to come are killing the dream for the rest of us. Of course we are willing to surf with travelers, but not like this. We had to earn our places here, anyone who wants a piece has to earn their's too. Also, nwsurfer is spot on when stating that the tow-reefs aren't the only victims. The same guys claiming tow-pro are also claiming secret spot this and check this out when the swell drops a bit without any credentials at said spot. Then what? Since when did selling out local knowledge become an acceptable substitute for actual surfing ability. Quit giving these kooks an outlet for their self-serving, ego stroking, straight up despicable behavior!
And 911 dude... Calling Eric a drug user ??? ... thats the last thing he is... your wealth of ignorance is amazing !!! ... Like they say on Fat Albert ... you are N.C.... no class !!!! ...
a bunch of people comlaining about guys heading out and surfing a spot they dont even surf themselves.... accessing out there on big days is done with a ski... wanna have a point???... paddle all the way out ther through the shore break on the huge days , and keep going all the way to the outer reef.... surf it , then complain... outer reef paddle localism ??? .. from people on here that dont even surf there ??? been surfin oregon for 25 years .. there is not an over crowding issue around here and you dont own nothin' ... there are a fews to many ass holes though.. the haters need to grow the up ... and the crew that does surf out there are doing one thing ,,,, out surfing ya and riding what you wish you could.. tow or paddle... they are gettin it , you are not....
Monster Mark sounds like he drank one too many Monster Energy Drinks..bet he has a Monster sticker on his jet ski and oversized truck too. FYI - It is getting crowded in Northern Oregon and you egotists are paving the way for it too happen in your neck of the woods as well. Cheers. Enjoy the kooks.
You're obviously missing the point. I'm not seeing any complaints about those guys surfing out there. What people don't like is that they are not in fact just "doing one thing ,,,, out surfing..." They are bringing cameras and photographers and publicizing it to millions. Whether you think that's cool or you don't, that's what the complaints are about.
bottom line is... they are not taking photos of an Oregon beach that will get popular because of it.. they have not named a beach that people can see and go surfing at... BECAUSE ITS NOT A BEACH... ITS AN OUTER REEF ... WAY....WAY THE HELL OUT THERE THAT ONLY WORKS WHEN ITS BIG ON NOT THAT MANY DAYS OUT OF THE YEAR ANYWAY...
So are you suggesting that all the guys who are invited or enticed to come up/over are only going to surf these 2 spots? What about the next day when the swell drops and it's 6' and offshore? Do they drive home with blinders on? Sit in the pub and wait for the next 15 @ 20? Hang out in the casino and smoke cigs?
As an observer to a lot of the surf community in the Pacific Northwest I find this line of conversation embarrassing and immature. Any surf addict is going to do just that... SURF. They put it in front of their families, their relationships, their friendships and their careers. They live and breathe for that one moment when God's energy and their board connect and for a few seconds they are in heaven. Anyone who has this kind of passion, can understand that. All the guys I know have crafted their entire life so they can have the free time when the Ocean calls. If you look at your surf buddies, how many of them hold down 9-5 jobs with one to 2 weeks off a year. If they do, then ask them if they are really happy with their surf performance or do they wish they could do more. Of the guys over this area, they own surf shops, surf websites, surf competitions, paddle competitions, lawn services, construction companies, private contractors, etc... Why? Because they want their time, when they need it. Not every surfer in America can have the privilege and burden of being sponsored by a company who will pay for their trips and give them free stuff. Honestly, the majority of surfers would choose the ability to surf all the time anywhere in the world over flipping burgers. I mean, surfers already have a stigma of pothead drop outs with no drive or ambition. At least to the mainstream conservatives, but with movies being put out, documentaries being produced, human stories being told... that image is being changed. People are starting to realize, surfers are athletes. Training and preparing for their sport just like an olympian chasing the gold metal. Except, surfers don't get the convenience of a gym or somewhere stagnant to train or even perform. They have to wait and wait and WAIT and in the Pacific Northwest, its cold, fickle and sharky. When the swell comes, they all hope they will be in the right place at the right time to catch that once in lifetime experience. If they get that moment captured on camera and film, even better. Its a memory well preserved. And for those that say, a person is a sell out or glamour sluts or keep your photos to yourself then why is Magicseaweed.com up? Why are you reading this article? Why do you give a sh*t!? As for personal jabs at people in public arenas, that is just immature and a lack of personal control. People like that are the guys you eventually meet on the show lock-up and are wife beaters. My name is Michelle and endorse these statements.
Why are people in the US occupying Wall Street? Because they see that the self-serving actions of a few are detrimental to the interests and well-being of the vast majority. The activists are the underdogs, but if they don't at least stand up and try to say/do something, then how can they complain as they watch their quality of life continue to degrade while the powerful insulate themselves more and more from the consequences that their actions impose on others?
Michelle,
"Not every surfer in America can have the privilege and burden of being sponsored by a company who will pay for their trips and give them free stuff."
Huh? How is this a burden?
" I mean, surfers already have a stigma of pothead drop outs with no drive or ambition. At least to the mainstream conservatives"
Why do you care what mainstream conservatives think about you/surfers?
"why is Magicseaweed.com up? Why are you reading this article? Why do you give a sh*t!?"
Because I was checking the swell forecast and had the unpleasant experience of seeing Oregon in the headlines. I give a shit because if you have ever lived or visited a surf zone in the headlines, those places are fckd from the media attention. People are sheep. Show them waves and they will come even if its "cold, sharky, and fickle."
Enjoy and Love Oregon, Please Don't Exploit Her.
"How is this a burden?"
Companies don't just give you free trips and stuff for free. There are expectations, time schedules, publicity, public feedback and slander issues, time away from other things or people they love. I'm sure some even have kids. There is a price the surfer has to pay for it and that price is different for each surfer. That to me would be the burden. Yes, they get good surf and see and experience wonderful things, but I believe it to be a double edged sword, respectfully.**
** " Why do you care what mainstream conservatives think about you/surfers? "
I care because I am a fan of the surfing sport and everyone in it and every variation of it (paddling, surfing, towing, big wave, small wave, beginners, advanced, amateurs & professionals, whatever. I am not a surfer, but relate the individual quest and accomplishments to rock climbing which is what I know. Surfing or individual style sports to me are about how much one believes in themselves and how each one of you are responsible for your success and failure in the sport. Surfing, specifically, to me is about mastering the art of "being present in the moment" and being willing to craft ones life to accomadate that passion. Its about understanding your own strengths and weaknesses, being honest with ones skill level and using common sense when choosing a wave or a site to surf. I understand when someone says its their church. Its like being your own buddha of the ocean in that moment. I admire that. In that moment, it won't matter what is said in forums like this. It doesn't matter if your family or friends agree or disagree with you or how you live your life. It's about one living their life and not just going with the status quo. In regards to the general mainstream, surfing is out there. Many sports that used to never be out there in the public are out there. It's not stopping. It is not because of one person who did one thing or posted an article. Its really becuase the change in technology and the delivery of information around the world. There are kids growing up all over the place that simply won't have the same outlook to "code of [name your sport]" as those that were pioneers or have been taught by their parents or their peers and understand the history of or the manners of the sport. I want kids to know that there are other opportunites and choices that can be made with their life other than college, corporate america, debt, family, kids, retirement and death. I want kids to know that with thought, effort, integrity, frugality, respect and some thick skin; they can follow their passion and do it successfully. What I don't admire about the sport, is how disrepectful many of you all can be to one another. **
** "Because I was checking the swell forecast and had the unpleasant experience of seeing Oregon in the headlines. I give a shit because if you have ever lived or visited a surf zone in the headlines, those places are fckd from the media attention. People are sheep.

Not all my comments where or are directed towards you, so I apologize if you felt so or feel so. I understand your frustration about using "Oregon" in the headlines. That should have been different. I agree people are sheep and they will follow. They will also follow the way people react to and treat one another. So maybe instead of everyone slamming everyone personally, perhaps this can be an opportunity to educate the followers so they will understand. Everyone knows not to reveal sensitive spots and in this case commenters are doing more damage that this article, so think about that. There is an international surf competition in our state so anyone bitchin about that is misguided. If a spot is recognized by accident or intentfully - it should then be stressed that it is only for advanced surfers. Which means its dangerous, fickle and one needs serious experience before going out there. Nobody wants to go surfing and then have it turn into a rescue mission. If it is a local spot, then educate upcoming surfers to let locals surf and be happy with the scraps. Those locals have been waiting much longer than you and if they want you to surf with them then they will invite you. If not find another spot, there are lots everywhere. Surfing to many is a religion, that is why you all are so passionate in your comments, but don't turn it into the middle east please. **
Anyway, bag me all you want, but I am a fan and these are my thoughts.
I stopped at:
"I am not a surfer, but relate the individual quest and accomplishments to rock climbing which is what I know."
You are talking about a world you have no idea about. This is not some fucking REI catalogue.
Guess what guys?? One thing you can count on is constant change in life. You can either be bitter and stay stuck in your TINY, TINY box and think you own something..(which you don't) or you embrace it allowing for new experiences. I choose to embrace change because it helps me expand who I am by challenging my decisions and character. Lets teach the next generation of surfers to be less emotional, more tolerant and to always remember it's about SHARING THE EXPERIENCE. Grow up surf world!!
That is the most positive thing I have heard someone say about surfing in a long time. I hope to surf with you some day, you have your head on straight!
The reality is that both of these waves are ultra low access,fickle, high consequence waves. One of them has had an INTERNATIONAL surf contest ran on it for 5 or 6 years running now so there is not a lot left there to expose that has not already been exposed. If these guys were showing up and blowing up an established , mainstream surf spot I could see getting pissed, but they are not. I don't think this article is going to cause the so cal crew to abandon there warm, head and a half high, roping point breaks to deal with the Pacific Northwest reality which is Cold, Fickle and Sharky oh and no bikini clad girlies on the beach.
These self-glorifying glamor sluts are the most hated surfers in Oregon. They may invite anyone and everyone who will pay attention to them but most of the locals here don't want attention and don't want company. Most of us still like to pay our dues, get our occasional good days, and stay out of the limelight.
It wasn't long ago that Northwest surfers could enjoy surf media anonymity. Now these styleless towbrowmancers are stamping Oregon on their bellies and posting pictures of themselves online. What a joke. Its all "aloha" up here? What meth induced Lincoln City cloud do you live in?
