I enjoyed it

Sorry I could not join you! Having fun in yr city tho iirc.

This Tuesday is a new Jeremy's Cleverly Titled British TV Night! We're going to be at the Alberta St Pub on NE Alberta, bet/w 10th & 11th. We'll be there on June 8th, between 6 and 8pm. It's free!

Come on out!

For anybody around this evening, I'm holding a salon of sorts at my house, featuring 40'z, my front porch, and the 1980 epic "Flash Gordon". We'll be starting at 8pm until whenever.

NE 6th & Prescott.

out of town, sounds fun though dude

I now need to move w/in 3 weeks. Does anybody know where I can find boxes for cheap or used?

what can you do in portland on a sunday night?

go to karaoke at joe's tavern in nw? you might even run across myself there.

you doin karaoke tonight rev? i'm gonna be in the nw earlier in the eve, might stop by for a beer

yeah, not sure if you'll see this or if you were already there or what, but i'm bout to leave right now

Eye Candy Video Night at Beulahland. Great Stuff.

um, is there any portlander that wants to put an ilxor up on sat. night, coming into town on sat for a couple days and just realised that all the hostels are booked out that night. here is a rec. from the last guy i stayed w/ just fyi:

"Ti4rnán was a pleasure to host. He's friendly, thoughtful, and easy-going. Very unobtrusive. I enjoyed chatting with him about art, history, social theory, and everything inbetween. (He also introduced me to Autotune the News - it's a whole new world!) I heartily recommend hosting this guy."

further references available on request.

not sure how open it is right now but when I was up in portland w/ no place to stay I found that good samaritan hospital's nursing school (it's operated by linfield college) has these huge rooms (that you can prob. get to yourself) they rent out when they're unfilled for about ten to twenty bucks a night

I just walked in and these old ladies gave me a key

I would but fuuuuuuck afaict I'm going to be homeless by then.

If I was living in my old place, sure, but I have no crashspace in the newer joint. There are multiple hostels here, tho.

ciao

so wtf do we have a basketball player running this bitch now or what?

does having to ride by oden's pic on the max have a sting to it

no you're right being a former trailblazer is a sufficient resume to running a state

anyway I think there's still something like 75% of pdx's vote to be counted so that ought to put him out of his misery

i wasn't referring to the governor thing. i just wondered if locals get sick of seeing a lolhueg billboard of their perpetually injured star rookie pick

oh yeah, sorry - that dude's been benched for what 4 years now?

3. he should've done a write-in campaign!

Shades of Sam Bowie. Is Oden a restricted free agent yet or does he have to wait until the end of the season?

there's still something like 75% of pdx's vote to be counted

THANK FUCKING GOD

(I did not know this).

Defazio beat off an insane Tea Party challenger in the 4th House district. Art Robinson, the GOP guy, had millions of out of state money. It was closer than I would have liked, but looks solid now.

Bummer about Measure 73 passing. Prisons not schools, yeah, sounds great.

Oh shit, Art Robinson.

Thank God I won't have this distressing visage staring down at me from a billboard anymore.

Some master Photoshopper put that image on a blue billboard near my house, so he looms down like a sort of enormous grim hunchback.

I went to Tim & Eric at the Roseland last night. Seeing Dr Steve Brule in person made it all worthwhile. Kept checking the election results on my phone, tho.

come on, Kitzhaber!

oregonian has called it for kitz, btw.

yeah looks like he'll squeak in

Jesus Christ, I didn't need that.

I'll be volunteering at the door of Stumptown this weekend during the mornIng. Find the big bespectacled guy with a buzzed haircut and come say hi.

Great weather for pho, but not much else, except maybe ducks. My favorite is Pho Hung. Go to the location on Powell. It's suitably divey and the pho is better there than the other location on 82nd.

Made it! Unfortunately my publisher got hit yesterday with a nasty case of strep and as a result I will have a glorious zero copies of my newest comic at this show. But fuck it it's a trip to portland to hang with comics pals.

Thanks for the pho tips and whoa is this some dismal weather. On the upside, it's kind of cute how Frontier Airlines has a different animal on the tailfin of each aircraft.

biked from woodstock to sauvie island and back today in just dumb gorgeous weather. sunburn season

Are there any good hotels in the downtown area that are less upscale than places like the Ace? Looking at taking five days and going to a Timbers game in late August, but Ace/Mark Spencer/Deluxe/etc. are out of my budget.

milo you could try the Jupiter which is just across the burnside bridge from downtown (20-25 minute walk to Timbers) and attached to the Doug Fir which may have a show you'd want to see or the Travelodge across the street from it (both on Burnside) if you're looking to go even cheaper. Interstate (along the Max Line which wld take you straight to the stadium) has dozens of v cheap no-name motels with varying degrees of seediness but there's not much to see up there even if is convenient for getting into the city
