  • I haven't seen Oregon polls, but a similar measure is at 47 yes, 40 no in Washington State. Pretty close! The yes side is ahead 50 to 40 in Colorado, too.
  • "They say it's really intense and difficult to grow marijuana, and I'm saying no it ain't," Umatilla County Sheriff John Trumbo says. "You plant it and trim it. You can grow it all day." He sure seems to know a lot about this… http://www.oregonliv…
  • Oh, but I do want to say that Fritz's image as the candidate of the people and champion of public campaign funding is pretty severly undermined by the fact that she's personally given hundreds of thousands of dollars to her campaign. Doesn't add up.…
  • I'm voting Nolan, though I can understand a vote for the mildly wacky Fritz (zebra car, anyone?). And obviously Hales. Smith makes me cringe. I expect he will be unelectable to any office after this. What would it say about our city if we elected hi…
  • I agree with all the consensus calls on Mike's statewide ballot measures except for the gill nets one. It makes no sense. It's not really an environmental measure. If we don't pass it (or maybe even if we do), the governor is going to go and make a …
  • You have the right to vote no matter where you live!
  • The legal (and probably best) way to do this is to just call the elections people and explain this to them. They're not the zoning cops, they don't give a damn if you're living in a place that is not technically a residence. They just flag that beca…
  • Yes, Mike, buy Swims overshoes! Brooks Brothers is even selling them, so you can. I have these monstrous ones that are like boots that go over my shoes, for biking. When I get to work, I take them off, and I've got whatever work shoes underneath, …
  • I don't know what this is, but you sound excited about it. And it's being offered through Louis CK's site. So I'm guessing it's worth buying.
  • Thanks for the report. Maybe someone just slipped me a mickey.
  • The last time I got food poisoning it was from cheese fries at Dot's and I ended up missing a Ween show, so I was blaming it on cheese fries once again.
  • Yeah, that could have been it, too.
  • Somewhat off-topic, but did anyone feel crappy after eating Zach's fare? I woke up in the middle of the night in pretty rough shape, seemed like it could be a food poisoning thing. But it might have just been a physical reaction to MITT'S LIES
  • If the city councilor is to be believed, the river has 10.7 billion gallons flow through it daily. So it is a really small percentage of that, right? 0.05%.
  • yeah, the video is really good. at the very least, i believe that they're trying. it would actually benefit apple if people liked their headphones.

  • Let's all pitch in and "sponsor" these people. If 16 UHXers each put in a quarter each, both of these complainers will be able to afford their much-needed virtual brushes!
  • Funny, because I think of cleaning the water bowl as the single least gross thing about dogs.
  • http://handeyesupply.com … it's aimed at designheads, draughtsmen, "makers"
  • Couplea Terminal Gravity ESGs (ultimate summer beer, you guys!), and then a bit of the sparkling white that I bought on Mike's recommendation and brought to a party. And sangria. Why stick to one kind of booze when you can have several? Seems like A…
  • DrJ, you'll have to come down for next year's Trek in the Park. They're doing tribbles.

  • I'm sad that this didn't shock me. Nothing the weirdo Republicans do shocks me any more.
  • Ecodrycleaner picks up and drops off! What could be better? Kill an errand!

  • Wait, that might have changed recently. I remember something about it. VISA's site says Minimum Purchase U.S. retailers may require a minimum purchase amount on credit card transactions. The minimum purchase amount must not exceed $10 and does no…
  • Instapaper. Facebook. iBooks — for pay books but also PDFs. Scramble with Friends. "Bike Maps" app for downloading free bike maps. Redfin/Zillow for pretending you're buying houses. Getaround/Zipcar/Car2Go for urban transportation. MailStop — take a…
  • This is why freddy is the drinkmaster. Seriously so good for the summer life.
  • Rum Club recommended: Rum Club Old Fashioned. Followed closely by Ellwood. http://rumclubpdx.com/menus/drink
  • The drinks at Rum Club Guerilla Happy Hour were soooo good. Mike got one in a coconut.
  • Boil water notice now rescinded. E COLI'S REIGN OF TERROR IS OVER
