The Living section of the Oregonian mentioned Welcome to Blog in its Christmas day cover story. The article covered various Portland holiday traditions and the shout-out appeared in a bit about the West Hill's martini glass display. Like me, the reporter couldn't track any information regarding the red slash that once appeared over the display to quell controversy fueled by MADD. The owner of the house didn't return his call.

Unfortunately, I couldn't track down a link to the article. If you've ever tried to circumnavigate Oregon Live's archives, you know the reason why.
