A Fact-Checking PSA from Olive

Fighting the good fact-checking fight.
  • Fighting the good fact-checking fight.

Hi Blogtown! This is Olive here to remind you that it's always a good idea to fact check your stories. SNURFLE... oh pardon me, PFFT SNERFFLLLE. The name of my new bar is actually called the Old Gold, not the Old Gold Box as the Oregonian would have you believe this morning. However, my favorite bar in town is coincidentally called Boxxes.

That is all. Now I must return to my morning kibble and daydreaming about fire hydrants.

Looks like the Oregonian just fixed it. Adieu Old Gold Box, you would have made a good kitty litter brand name.

Why would a female dog dream about fire hydrants?
