Controversial caption contest
The Friends of the Roundabout just broke from a meeting that ended when a pubmaster politely suggested, “Yer distrubin’ my regular drinkers with all your talk, move along!”
During the meeting, controversy arose over the possible posting of a historic Ocean Shores photo, circa 1960. “DON’T post it – those Internet thugs will just make fun of it!” wailed Barb Butterclam, the Secretary in Charge of Positivity who had earlier suggested painting a big Smiley Face in the middle of the Roundabout. “Aw, who cares about those clickers, post it and let them choke if they don’t like it!” countered the crusty James T. Duck (the city pioneer for whom, of course, our big lake was named). “No, no, no a thousands no’s!” shot back Tim. C. Urchin, publisher of the Roundabout Post, soon to be hitting newstands. “You can’t let this kind of stuff out for free, then who will be my fish wrapper?”
Well, maybe so . . . but who can resist the potential feeding frenzy over a caption contest for this:
First prize: a bag of candy, at the Convention Center on Halloween.
Second prize: “dream date,” with the flagger of your choice. (Some assembly required; bigamy not permitted in the state of Washington; “date” will be chaperoned by K. Lanfear, to insure all guidelines are followed.)

Day after liquefaction
Ocean Shores 10/21/09
Did someone tell Pat Boone that it would sell like gold?
I could go on but there’s just too many
I picked a hell of a day to quit sniffing glue!!!!!!!
The last time anybody listened to Pat Boone……….
With a tilt of the head, a twinkle in the eye and a quick snap of his fingers Mayor Bunkers proclaims “I’ve got it”!!!!!!!!
I don’t know….the guy with the orange vest said take a left on anchor. Now what.
I can’t wait to open a store and sell taffy
Just think in another 49 years we’ll have a sidewalk AND a roundabout.
Ok. with two votes “area 52″ and the winner with three votes…. Ocean Shores.
SCREW IT!!!!! Lets just put a traffic light in.
Has anybody seen my keys?
runways 180 left and right are taking shape. what the heck, lets just make a town.
The ghost of roundabouts past
City Re-development Plan for downtown has started, Jan 1, 2010.
Have I got a deal for you?
Tsunami wipes out Ocean Shores metropolis. Citizens vow to rebuild
And here’s where we put the roundabout….
That large hill in the background doesn’t resemble anything I have seen?
Luckily, the traffic isn’t too bad.
Circa 1960: As the new Westerly Roundabout takes shape, the intersection of West Chance and the Boulevard still burns brightly.
