Sorry, your title caught my eye and I thought you might need admin assistance.
Carry on.

LOL, You should get Bill to send you a "I am a beaver believer" bumper sticker. It sure beats the "Quack Attack" ones.
Goooooooooooo Beavs.........
BTW, when we lived in student ghetto housing in Corvallis, this statement was true:
Q: How do you keep beavers out of your back yard?
A: Put up goal posts.

Many years ago I was stationed at Offutt AFB in near Omaha. We used to go to Rosenblatt Stadium to catch the AAA Royals games, and the college world series. By the looks on tv it is still a beautiful ball park.

I am up in Oregon for one week per month, having recently attained the state as part of my sales territory 3 mos ago.
I just returned from Portland today. I am becoming a fan of Oregon sports, but I have to be careful who I support - Oregon or Oregon State. Never know which side of the rivalry a customer could be on. LOL.
Go Beavers!

Look for color, Green is for quackers and Orange for Beavs. Or a Big green "O" somewhere. I think the rivalry is mostly for fun.
The joke about the goal post, I used it in a council meeting once. The City Manager was a Duck. We had some beavers fell a tree and hit one of our sewer lines crossing the creek. We got into a dicsussion on how to deal with the beavers. I mentioned putting up goal post and he about feel out of his chair. So far the public record has not come back and haunt me.
