"The Reflector" Letters to the Editor


I just read that our local paper, The Reflector, has increased the limit to 500 words per Letter to the Editor, to "allow writers to fully explain their positions on the issues facing readers."
This is good news for all of us! The Reflector's reporter was just fired for plagiarizing from The Columbian (another leading news source), so there's no one but us citizens to provide factual articles. Plus, the Letters to the Editor is the best content in the paper. Where else can you learn about Biblical quotes supporting firearm ownership, or reasons why David Madore should have been Trump's running mate?

Speaking of news, I'll be playing music under the stars at the Rusty Grape this Saturday night (the 30th) from 7—9 PM. Come on out for some tunes, wine, and wood-fired treats.

Pokemon Go




You've probably heard about the mobile app Pokemon Go. When we were out on the town last night (which takes 5 minutes in Battle Ground), we saw herds of teens stumbling around, staring into their iPhones. While its nice that Pokemon Go is getting kids outdoors, its sort of sad that their very first outdoor experience is through a 5" screen. (I admit that I tried the app after I got home, and captured a Bulbasaur near our neighbor's septic tank.)

If you come to see me play music at the Rusty Grape this Saturday night (the 16th) from 7—9 PM, please don't watch me through your cell phone. I'm paranoid that people are trying to steal my Bulbasaur, and I worked so hard to get it.

Brexit & 4th of July



We Battle Grounders love explosions and fire, so the 4th of July is a big deal. Even churches and youth groups have fireworks stands. Plus, last week we voted to exit Clark County, so we're now an independent nation! That means we can use military grade explosives and artillery with no background checks.


To celebrate all of this, I'll give a free concert this evening (Saturday the 2nd) at the Rusty Grape, from 7—9 PM. Bring some cherry bombs and wear you favorite flag shirt.
