Badge of dishonor

Eugene's public water company is dropping the phrase "Water Board" from the name of Lloyd Knox Water Board Park. Too much similarity to the torture technique of the same name. They considered leaving it in and changing "Lloyd Knox" to "Dick Cheney," but decided against it.

Suggests a new name for the Beavers' current stadium: We're Bored Park.

What about a Dick Cheney Skate Board Park? It can be a place for pimply teens to ride skateboards over an effigy of the Big Dick.
