BCS National Championship Game - Auburn vs Oregon

Tonight's Bowl Championship Series title game pits the #1 Auburn Tigers against the #2 Oregon Ducks. Auburn has Heisman Trophy winner Cam Newton under center while Oregon boasts a ridiculous sped-up, no-huddle offense featuring the nation's leading rusher and a highly underrated quarterback. I think Oregon's going to win it by a touchdown...the only unknown is which uniform combination they're gonna come up with.

Dart on Map - WDNE

Today's randomly thrown dart landed in the Monongahela National Forest just south of Durbin, West Virginia.


The closest sticker that I have to this area is from WDNE (W Davis aNd Elkins) in Elkins, West Virginia, about 25 miles north on U.S. Route 250 from where the dart landed. WDNE was apparently a Country music station when this decal came out in the early 1980s. They now carry an Adult Standards format.
