I love my job.
But when it cuts into big Blazers home games, like the one against the Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday afternoon, well let’s just say it can be tough to punch in the ole time card.
So imagine my delight when my manager called me up Sunday morning and said, It’s Blazers Heritage Night, you’re covering the game!
I put on my red shirt.

Well, I'm sad that I haven't gotten to write about my experience before now but my mother sent me this laptop a few days ago and they have us going so much I'm too tired to write. Let me just recap my week and also vent for a moment.

The following is a blog from climbing expert Joe Whittington, who climbed Mount Hood for the first time in 1978 and has continued to summit Oregon's tallest peak every year since, in addition to leading countless climbs across the globe, through his Portland-based company, Oregon Peak Adventures:

It’s clear that the Democrats have won a majority in the US House of Representatives. There are already 20 clear pick-ups of Republican seats and currently, no Democrat is falling behind. There are still approximately 2 dozen races that could increase this margin.
It is clear that we have been able to harness the desire for change and that the hard work of thousands of men and women across the country is making a difference. This will p...

I'm writing from the New York Sports Grill inside New York's JFK International Airport. I am surrounded by 22 large screen televisions flashing millions of pixels in a "wall of color" cooperative.

With the 2006 Portland Marathon just around the corner, how do you know you have what it takes? Like many people, I am hoping to run a marathon at least once in my life, but I know I am NOT ready for this one. (Yes I do have major marathon envy!)

Whenever an earthquake shakes the Northwest, everyone loves to share their stories about how it felt. I thought that would be a fun reason for an interactive blog.
Here are some examples from kgw.com viewers:

As reporters, we sometimes get to go behind the scenes and do things that other people don't usually get a chance to experience.
Stories about the Oregon Zoo have always been among my favorites, because I'm a huge animal lover and nothing compares to getting to meet some of the gentle giants in person, like the...
