How about we stop dressing our dogs in costumes. Not ONE of them looks pleased to be fulfilling your dream of "how cute they are."

Mr/Mrs/Ms? anonymous...unless you were born and raised here, zip it.

How about the ability to attend for free next year, with a confirmed purchase of the 2017 event ticket.

The "gig" economy:No medical, SSI, 401k,yet most consumers don't care.

I think it's the "white trash creates trash syndrome." Come on floaters, get a dictionary and look up responsibility!

Who does these "studies"?! A new elementary school set to open between Brosterhous and American Lane (plus an eventual 200+ housing units) apparently won't cause traffic problems, according to the people who seem to "rubber stamp" these projects. A new college is being squeezed in (rammed down our throats) on the westside, when better/more accessible spots are available. These apartments? Yes we need housing, and traffic may be a concern. But your view of Pilot Butte being ruined...get over it or move. I guess that's the new City of Bend Mantra! We're imploding folks! (look it up)

For those of you who are renting and say, "put it on property tax bills" that's another reason your rent goes up! Saying "people will buy gas out of town" is just moronic.
