How do you feel about "P-town"? Is THAT where the world begins and ends? Or perhaps in the City of Roses/City that Works? That sounds like a good beginning/ending spot for the world.

You posted this comment on the wrong newspaper site, Grandpa

Runways begin and end at PDX.

If only they had some sort of section where you could comment on their flawed methodology...and probably about illegal immigrants or some other bullshit.

Strong close by the author. Too bad he used the same line 2 sentences earlier.

This was the shittiest rip-off Seinfeld's "Marble Rye" episode I've ever encountered.

What is a "Mt. Angel"?

So sensitive about a sandwich someone else really likes! Sheesh.

ALSO THE OWNER OF KENNY & ZUKES WRITES FOR THAT PUBLICATION SO

Take your greasy reuben and broaden your asshole with it, rube.

C'mon, grow a set and blog about pork sliders.

Portland is ranked about 25th in the US by population. It's in a geographically remote corner of a very large country. It isn't even the largest or most economically powerful city in that remote corner. Most Americans would have a hard time locating it on a map. Anyone who thinks the world "stops and ends in Portland" is a drooling idiot. However, that doesn't mean that a writer who gets paid to write his opinions can't actually express his opinion. You clearly disagree. That's ok too.

I'm a veggie now, but when I was a carnivore Reubens were okay, if I was drunk enough. I've got Irish in me but apparently not enough. I know I wouldn't have driven too far to get one. Point taken I/Anon, there's a world out there beyond my beloved Portland, but not much of a one.

I was in the neighborhood to go to Las Primas but they were closed so I stumbled into Kenny and Zuke's and had a $13 reuben once.

I immediately gained 12 pounds, an impacted colon from the mountain of nitrate salted flesh I laboriously shoveled into my face hole, and bleeding gums from the razor sharp jagged edges on the toasted jew bread. It was decent but not worth $13 and three hours of guilty meat sweats.

Yes. The prices at Kenny & Zuke's are too damn high. It's not that great a sandwich.
But I hate sauerkraut anyway, so what I eat isn't really a reuben at all.

Okay, I've been thinking on this problem more throughout the day, and I think I've solved it.

The world is round, so if you start in Portland and go around it, you WILL also end in Portland. This is true of any place that you choose as a starting point, but it still means that I,A was incorrect, twice.

Now don't you wish you'd only made your incorrect statement once, I,A? I'm sure you feel reeeeally foolish right about now. Good luck living this one down. There are some kinds of shame that even anonymity won't save you from.

Glockenspiel is awesome. They don't mess around.
