All tagged Question of the Week
With the 30th Annual Cruise the Gorge burning up the tracks at Sorosis Park with a Show in the Shade, we hit the grass and pressed the flesh to find out if you could have just one of the cars, which would it be? Locals supercharged their minds added glass packs and went for a harmonic balancer to bring us these smooth answers.
To build a New High School in The Dalles or not? We asked the first seven locals we ran into this morning, Aug. 6, and we got some interesting answers.
It’s the thrill of the hunt that led to our question of the week in this edition. CCCNews took the streets to find if people are cuckoo for cash deals as yard sales, garage sales, and estate sales, are hitting a fevered pitch. Guess what, not only do people enjoy them, some have based a whole career on their finds. Check out what locals had to say here.
Reports of toilets flushing in the reverse direction in different locations around the Gorge have been flooding in for several days. Counterclockwise water has been seen swirling about in several different thrones around town. We took to the streets to see if other folks had witnessed this strange phenomenon.
Hey TD, you’re full of players. Our Question of the week reveals that there is a little sport in all of us. We also find out who is clutch.
What was the first car you ever owned? Locals told us the good, the bad and the fugly. For example, Jonathan Alvarez didn’t always own a Dodge Challenger Hellcat. He started humbly with a Mazda 626 that he sold behind his Dad’s back to get a Honda Civic, a move his girlfriend and now wife appreciated.
With forecasted temperatures set to torch things off this weekend, we thought we’d get the hot poop on how to beat the heat, and locals had a ton of suggestions. So load up your Super Soaker and take a dive into the deep end and don’t forget to put a wet towel around your neck.
Question of the week: If you had no fear, what would you do? Locals from all over tell us what barriers they would break if they could remove that loathsome confidence eroder of fear that drifts in and out of our consciousness.
Question of the week: How do you give back to your community? Locals are giving in a lot of ways we found out. From sharing fruits and vegetables from their gardens to providing good conversation at parties. We were amazed at how many different ways we can give back to our communities. Check out what your neighbors had to say.
Question of the Week: What was your favorite toy growing up? Locals had no trouble identifying some of their most joyous moments with their toys and that undefinable time of their youth where maybe they did not control much in the adult world but were masters of their own as they took on the lives of their ships, dolls, trucks and Legos.
