Congratulations Queen Slugretha! We wish you and your new Royal Consort a long trail of happiness in the garden of bliss.

Jell-O Art Saturday, April 4th, 5-8pm

As you may have suspected, Slugs, even SLUG Queens, do hibernate in the winter. This winter we needed extra rest for all the fun we have planned for the rest of the year. Starting the weekend of April 3rd you will start to spot SLUG Queens coming out of their shells. First Marie Slugtoinette will be hosting the First Friday Art Walk for Lane Arts Council. Being an "Art Duchess" she can't wait to spend some slime with the artists and public that evening. Then, Saturday, April 4th, catch many old Queens along with Slugtoinette at one of Eugene's most unique anual events--The Jell-O Art Show at Maude Kerns Gallery (1910 E.15th)
See the famous Radar Angels perform and be amazed by the wiggly stuff transformed into fine art---better yet--enter a piece yourself!
Later that evening be sure to swing by Diablo's Bar for a night of comedy hosted by the funny and talented Queen Glo, Leigh Anne Jashaway. See you there.

Every SLUG just DANCE now!

Okay Slugaphiles, shake your tails, here's a little slug love I just found on You Tube!
Animated Slugs getting their groove on to a club beat...Every Slug just dance NOW!

Sluggish on your Valentine's Day plans?

Well, everyone knows slugs are hermaphrodites, so we take care of ourselves on Valentine's Day with a delightful box of Chocolates from Kekau Chocolatiers or a stop by their fabulous Nib Desert and Wine Bar, Flowers from the outrageously creative Passion Flower , and perhaps taking in a show. Might I suggest the slugilicious Gaye Lee Russell's Valentine's Day evening at The Secret House Vineyards. Enjoy a fine evening of top-notch jazz and blues, exquisite cuisine and of course Patty's fine wines. For a sample of Lady Slugdiva's (aka Gaye Lee Russell) soulful tunes check out her Myspace website.
Who knows where this romantic evening with yourself might lead...

So proud to be an American SLUG

Who knew? Who knew the SLUG Queen would fall head over tail for one with so little time for slime...and yet Marie Slugtoinette must tell you, dear public, that she has been enchanted by the entire first family and the charm that they OOOOOZE! How excited will we be when their trail next winds it's way by our snug green valley? My slimy guts quiver at the thought! Until then we still each have the power to make a change. We finally each have a voice in our nation and our home community. To stay tuned to the national discussion and lend your voice check out the new www.whitehouse.gov website with it's cool yet classic graphics and daily blog entries and updates. You can get stuff off your chest and feel it's actually being heard. Weird.
But if it's an impact you want to make right here in Eugene you can start here by adding your voice to this blog. Have questions? Want answers? Have answers? Let the SLUG Queens help you out. Dear SLUG Queen...
I'll be so happy to hear from you.
