Musings from too close to the crypt. Random thoughts, valentines, and vitriol from an aging and increasingly cranky boomer who's tired of the public flogging he's taken as an Oregon Public Employee and now as a retired public employee drawing his PERS pension. To people who think I'm getting more than I deserve - bite me! I earned every penny. Please read the notes below before posting comments, or emailing me. They are important!!!

Everybody Have Fun Tonight
Over on Jack Bog's site there is a lively and fun discussion of names you would give to the Portland City Council if they were a rock group. The proposed names are fun. It seems that we could have a similar good time if we poked fun at (a) the PERS Board (b) the PERS and Employers Attorneys (c) the various Media and (d) the various Judges involved, including the Supreme Court. What IF each of these were rock groups. What would you call them. To start, I'd be inclined to propose a name for the PERB, including Paul Cleary, and call them "Paul Cleary and the Raiders", or "Mike Pittman and the Mechanics". For the PERB lawyers - Joe Malkin and Bill Gary - "Stoned Temple Pilots". Use your imagination. Go to my interactive website and leave your suggestions over there. The winners will be honored by having their names used in place of the real names in some of my posts. This is good, clean fun and is a nice way to divert attention from the real problems we all are dealing with. Let your creative juices run wild. PERS can't take those away.
