Come on, keefe.  Between the CRC boondoggle and mayoral candidates who punch their pickup basketball opponents in the nuts, you know that's not true.

I should have said Seattle. Oregon has a proud history of corruption.

This intrigued me to where I had to look it up. What I found was more bizarre than I could have imagined. We just don't have any of this in the PNW. There is no way you could make this up. Truly stranger than fiction.

Agreed.  WI and MN are much more interesting, and there is forests, lakes and rivers.

Its not just flat farm land.

You apparently have never been to southern Illinois or the Mississippi river valley. Illinois isn't all flat.
