  • Fun, but needs more character development. MMFR2 takes up presumably with the women running the city. I believe some comics precede getting the MMFR2 movie out if you want more spoilers. 3D was a scheme to revive the flagging revenues of theaters …
  • If the "Goth House" is for rent, maybe it is for sale? http://www.zillow.com/homedetails/4224-SW-Melville-Ave-A-Portland-OR-97239/2102611654_zpid/
  • I have had phobias and panic. Phobias include heights, though I have sometimes exposed myself to that as a challenge. It can lessen temporarily, not permanently, that way. I am wary of fire. Fireplace, bonfire in a damp place, OK; many candles not…
  • The Oregon Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts has a talk about legal structures for artists on May 26 lunchtime PSU $10 - http://oregonvla.org/events/. Some of this would apply to freelancers.
  • I have always found the Oregon Corporation Division helpful on the phone and the wait is usually minimal. They are 503-986-2200. My reading is that sole proprietorships do not even need to register unless operating under a fictitious name ("doing bu…
  • Mike is right, as I look at my media! It is a thought burden. Not everyone has a f'n presidential library to archive and catalog that. The interesting question for individuals who have had social media since kindergarten and friended 10-hundreds per…
  • The S-corp is to have the option to issue stock to many holders. The LLC is the solo or closely held. So reverse of FTP. In Oregon, there is a minimum annual corporate tax due on April 15 of $150. The annual corporate registration with the Secretary…
  • Solar panels are a sticky wicket. Laws vary by state and $ by utility within the state. Maintenance angles. A good thing, but complexity abounds. Hawaii and NY are maybe about to kick ass on solar. But solar cuts across politics in a good way.
  • That Rose City home looked like a friend's who has had health issues. But not! Foreclosures have bad juju. Same reason not to have heavy juju ritual objects like Nkondi at home.
  • The film is worth seeing, but it is a documentary, not a thriller. When it was made, the protagonists did not know it would blow up. I'm not an adherent of the w leaks thesis that because it is secret it should be public. I have worked for the st …
  • I thought he has done a good job as governor, maybe a too quiet and behind the scenes. I found the press, especially WW making exaggerated generalizations to paint the darkest picture. But all the mainstream press joined in too. Blood in the water.…
  • I am a guitar failure in about the jr high era because I had a guitar with too high an action. But tech has evolved and I think this is genius: www.roadietuner.com, an auto tuner, including an alternate tuning library.
  • I was U-schooled in a snow zone. I finally discovered thermal underwear, hats, super socks and outdoor sports. I cross country ski commuted where I could shower at work to be decent. (but I would be reluctant to move back there)
  • Have had to solve many problems in the home of aesthetics and function, consulted designer friends. #firstworldproblem Aesthetics: outside of house, inside, furnishing. Good idea to keep outside/inside close. That covers moulding and door detail. F…
  • I would strongly discourage drinking toilet tank water. Mine has some pretty intense biofilm, not that the pipes don't too. No media outlet has ever been faulted for over alarming. What happens will happen. But curious to see the power outages hap…
  • UX Clubhouse? http://variety.com/2014/dirt/real-estalker/gus-van-zant-puts-rural-portland-compound-up-for-sale-1201326028/ (Wonder what it looked like before the home stagers got ahold of it? No self respecting creative would live like the photos.)
  • We each gave different personality-strengths and networks. A single person can change the course of history. Optimism, and the right-left/intuition merge is a powerful tool. Get in the world changing zone! Creating and reinforcing optimism in the p…
  • I am really disturbed that almost no images in journalism are connected to the story now. It's all just clickbait and emotional reaction seeking. Ditto SEO optimized journalism pandering to machines for pageviews.
  • Our current form of economics is based on unlimited growth. I was doing some research on steady state economics, for like when we completely fill up the planet. My college had "steady state economics" indexed under "economic stagnation". http://stea…
  • I'm inspired now to make my own nog, rather than waiting for the "powers that be" to put in stores. Thanks for a nogariffic gettogether and conversation.
  • If you want some hardwood lumber to supplement the classic logs, you might see if Viridian Wood has firewood at their St Johns warehouse. It's long burning Indonesian hardwood they salvage from the Port of Portland. Most of their wood is upcycled.
  • Saturday UO White Box art opening 4-6 Surplus Space art opening 6-9 Sunday Wynde Dyer art opening Stumptown Division 4-6
  • #pringles ≠ #potato chips. But since they were sold by Procter and Gamble to Kelloggs, they have been on a strange flavors trip. Like pumpkin pie spice. True story, an engineer friend of mine had an internship to develop a machine to count the #prin…
  • Set up nonprofit (~educational) library. Donate all our physical media to the library in exchange for tax advantage. Available to borrow. Excess cash donations fund rent (from a nonprofit landlord?), administration salary and arts residencies. Educa…
  • Some things have more value donated at a taxing entity acceptable documentation of value than they do being sold at the lowest convenient price. Say you sell a record for $.50 at M. Records. If you donate it at the Discogs value of say $10, and you …
  • You might also talk to local startup Surveymonkey. They are more set up for anonymity, while you would like to track an individual over time. May be a use case they haven't thought of. Never hurts to ask though. Maybe send clients a txt each day to …
  • I would suggest asking on the mobile portland google group. Suggest it be built on the cheap with a cross mobile OS framework. You will save $ if you have the app UX mapped in advance.
  • I would summarize description as micromanage a bilingual superhero with more educational debt than the salary. It is a hiring manager and HR [bad word here]. Sad thing is that people are reposting that job. Save the description. It is not saved by t…
  • Interesting job with criminal pay http://omsi.iapplicants.com/ViewJob-610315.html.
  • http://www.nbcnews.com/news/investigations/handcuffed-black-youth-shot-himself-death-says-coroner-n185016 It's sad when these reports don't seem surprising.
