Re: “In Which I Don't Say Goodbye”
My cat also drinks from the faucet. She's 26 and she gets really angry and meows like a yenta if you don't turn it on fast enough.
See you around, William.
Re: “The Trail Blazers' 40th Anniversary Jerseys Are U-G-L-Y”
There is absolutely no reason they can't just go back to the 87-88 jerseys. Not as throwbacks. Just go back to them. I never liked when they switched over to these jerseys made in photoshop. "Uh...Impact font. make it italic. YES! We're a lot more 90's now, guys! Make the logo italic, too!" Stupid.
If you wanna honor Schonz, let him call games again. That's it.

Week 4: Porter/Stout
Monday - Laurelwood
Tuesday - Rogue
Wednesday - Deschutes
Thursday - Hopworks

If a brewer doesn't have a beer in that week's particular style, internet suggestion time.
Re: “True Love Waits.”
He looks like young Sean Hannity.
Re: “A Little Bitterness with Your Coffee?”
I live out by SE 122nd and Burnside, and nobody's driving around in jacked up trucks with Toby Fuckin Keith blaring from speakers taped to the gun-racks.
Nobody.
I don't know how he can say "most" of Portland looks like the Marlboro Man. Because that particular stereotype is decidedly the minority in the Portland I drive through on my way to and from my job downtown. What he describes exists almost solely at the aforementioned Duke's on 148th and sometimes the Dixie. That's pretty much it.
And no one's drinking Stumptown because they believe they're drinking the essence of jeggings and iron and wine and poorly grown in neckbeards. They're drinking Stumptown because they think it tastes good.
You're New York. If a bunch of confused, insecure burgeoning coke-heads in scarves and sweaters from Bigfoot-land are dictating your cultural direction, (more like re-feeding your decade old hipster culture back to you) and are using specialty COFFEE as their primary weapon, you deserve to have your status jacked from you. Because your shit is weak.
Re: “Of Cookies and Torture”
Man, I don't know what'd make me crack. I think there are rules against it, but a perfectly poured Youngs Double Chocolate Stout, water condensing on the outside of the glass - I might crack.
Or a box of Chicken in a Biskit.
Re: “Of Cookies and Torture”
Baltimore Police actually used the photocopier trick. It was in David Simon's "Homicide" book. It showed up in both Homicide on NBC and The Wire.
