Official Blog Endorsement #1
In the blogging world the idea is that what you care about translates said noun (person, place, thing or idea) to being important enough to make people read your thoughts about it.

When celebrities get paid enough to use their image to promote an something whose maker has a large advertising budget it is referred to endorsing.

So I am making my first official blog endorsement, The Oregon Zoo. Don't think of them as a bunch of wild animals locked in boxes and cages slowly going insane. Think of the opportunity you have to witness majestic creatures of the wild in their realistic, albeit miniature, habitats. Maybe most importantly in todays cash-strapped times, admission to the zoo is $10.50, and $9.00 if you ride MAX and show your ticket. Beautiful walk, fun environment, & a cheap price is the reason I officially blog endorse The Oregon Zoo.
