Stephen Colbert, the pronunciation of Oregon

What an amazing man (and an amazing photo!)

Why is it that nobody can pronounce Oregon the right way? I was watching SVU just a bit ago and the lady said she was returning to "are-ee-gone" rather than "ory-gun"... But in addition to that, why are Oregonians so anal about the way Oregon is pronounced? I'll never know...

With prom, my birthday, and graduation coming up, I am insanely busy. Maybe I should turn this thing into a photoblog since I'm too lazy to do anything else!

It's been so gorgeous lately! Well, that is, when my dog's tuchus isn't in my face.
