I mean that.Actually, I've never been in or even NEAR Oregon. Don't know anyone there, either. When I was writing the gag, I needed a state and for whatever reason, "Oregon" popped into my head. I liked the way it read in the gag, so I used it.Plus, it seemed funnier to me that Butch was going to put his life on hold to drive cross-country (Butch & I are in Pittsburgh PA) and kill this family, just because the kids pissed him off. ------------------

You did a gag a while back where Butch ended up taking the wheel of the bus that he was riding on. In the "Oregon" gag, you had Butch driving to work. Yet, you didn't explain why all of a sudden Butch stopped taking the bus every day. Did PAT kick him off? Did Butch happen to miss the bus that day? Did Butch leave work early because he had a doctor's appointment? How does Butch feel about having to pay to park his car every day? I dunno...You really opened up a whole Pandora's Box of questions there. I is confused.

Why not the X-rated massage parlor? Look within yourself, for it is there that the answers to your questions lie.------------------
