Immitation may be the sincerest form of flattery, but folks in these parts don't take kindly to other towns taking over their glory.
Case in point, Glenwood, Oregon.
Somehow, the enterprising people of this city (which I had never heard of before today, so you can imagine how inconsiquential they must be) have their hooks into Google. If you were to search for the Forest Grove zip code, it brings up Glenwood, OR. Our house? Glenwood. Our pizza place? Glenwood. Our Tiffany's? That was a trick question. The classiest thing we have here is Safeway. But it's OUR Safeway, and we're not going to let a bunch of over-ambitious penguin supporters take it.
They can take our zip code, but they can never take our Safeway!
(Admittedly, the battle cry needs some work; but it will sound better when we hire Mel Gibson as our spokes-heman.
Or not. )
