  • Alas, so many nuts aren't nuts. The peanut, a legume The cashew, a perverse apple-turd The coconut, a meal in itself
  • Legume, gal!
  • There's something you guys haven't addressed, and that is the IUD! I read a long article in The Atlantic recently about how the IUD is a extremely reliable form of BC, but is stigmatized in the United States because of one faulty device (the Dalkon …
  • On December 5th, 2005: Scientific American [MAGAZINE SUBSCRIPTION] I have zero recollection of this!
  • G*dess bless the Hairpin...I've learned so much about How To Be A Girl from How To Be A Girl: http://thehairpin.com/slug/how-to-be-a-girl
  • Oh God, forget about it. I hate lady troubles. There should be a separate ladies-only UHX to discuss the width and breadth of this subject.
  • L_T is right, but also: never wear boots with a suit. It's not an issue of expanse-of-boot inasmuch as the way a boot's silhouette will mess with the way your pants ride around the calves.
  • I loved my Oregon lady-doc, but she is in West Linn/Lake Oswego. If your mother is mobile: http://www.healthgrades.com/physician/dr-marion-darling-33399
  • I don't know if you guys have this pantheon of variety in the Northland, but the grocery stores here in LA are overflowing with soy Nog varieties. Earth Balance makes a nog & it's a winner.
  • N/M All Sold!
  • I am very comfortable in admitting that I love clothes. I equate great strides forward in my self-image, identity, confidence, sense of daily play, and imprint upon others with the moment I started seriously giving a shit about clothes. My approach…

  • I am not kidding when I say Steve is a True Friend! It is a great honor to have Stevie P. as a life-long buddy. He's always there in time of need. Takes one to the airport 4,000 times without a grumble. Will help a person move. Will take you to a w…
  • Did you guys ever go to Anna Banana's, speaking of old-school Portland coffee joints? I would play scrabble and smoke cigs in the basement of the NW Portland Anna Banana's all the time in high school. Drink a chai tea with a shot of espresso in it,…

  • My Mom looooves the Willamette Week. I also have something of a bias towards it because I once wrote for the Willamette Week and they paid me my first freelancing dollars, but that probably doesn't say much for the paper because I was 19 and doing…
  • 1. YES! 3. I got into Clan of the Cave Bear in 4th grade. 4. Interestingly: my parents were seated next to Jean M. Auel at some kind of fundraiser or dinner party (she's local y'all) and really liked her. It is due to this encounter that they unk…
  • On MANY occasions have I spent an uncomfortable amount of time showing relative strangers photos of Grunty on the Internet. What a photogenic guy he was! Always making a face for the camera. Someone should find that picture of him freaking out at a …

  • The man who wrote me this message is from Troutdale.
  • This job is a real hot potato. Actual message I just received on Facebook: Just FTR, glib use of the term "cheap rent" in a city still plagued with one of the highest unemployment rates in the nation (10%), doesn't exactly resonate as fun, cool or …
  • P.S. THANKS GUYS, this is helpful! You can follow my DATA STREAM here if you want: http://www.facebook.com/portlandia (If you "Like" and "Comment" it makes me look good to the moneybags)
  • I have seen all the episodes now, and I can honestly tell you that it is a pretty all-around hilarious show.
  • Guys, I AM SOUP. All-time faves: a roasted cauliflower and garlic number with drizzles of truffle oil, the LRBC chanterelle classic, TORTILLA SOUP, and watercress soup, which tastes like childhood. Basically all you need is a handheld immersion b…
  • It's me, CHUCK! (There is no Twin Peaks character by that name) (I just am pretty committed to Chuck)
