Dude, check out my bulge.

For sale, a piece of property in Oregon? Quiet, secluded, beautiful view of the valley, and if doesn't have a panoramic view now, wait a hundred thousand years.
Scientists say it probably started growing in 1997 and has been rising 1.4 inches a year since. The likely cause of the bulge is a pool of magma. Larry Chitwood, a geologist at Deschutes National Forest, told The Oregonian the pooling magma is under tremendous pressure causing the Earth's surface to expand and bulge. The uplift could be anything from the early stages of a volcano, to a pooling of liquid rock. USGS geologists admit, they just don't know.


It must be Bush's fault. Why doesn't the FEMA do something now to save people, why not evacuate Oregon now, why tempt fate. Why the slow federal response?

President Bush hates white farmers and cattle ranchers. Oh, and folks over in Ashland smoking the hippie lettuce, he hates them too.
