Rumor What's going on in Portland? (1 Viewer)

New proposal for Eastmoreland Golf Course.

...wait, is that course shutdown for good?

No, people would just rather have a sex forest.

BG and fam treated the wife and I to brunch on the Portland Spirit today (early Father’s Day gift). Other than the raft ups of “boat homeless”, it was so very nice to see Portland from the vantage point of no graffiti or visible tent cities. Reminded us of just how beautiful Portland can be……….sigh. Then we had to drive home via 205 and the illusion evaporated and it turned into the “new” rathole Portland. Never thought I’d be proud to call myself a “burb man” but Portland gives me no choice. What a travesty of inaction.

...plenty of nighttime hours available could easily pay maintenance costs by renting by the night!

The history channel is making a documentary about Abraham Lincoln, from his point of view.

Rumor has it that his final scene will be shot in front of a live audience.

I think it's a re-release. It actually came out in 2012...

We haven't done that in fifteen or twenty years. We also dined in the River Queen a couple times, once when it went up and back in the Willamette and once when it was docked..

Looks like some positive progress?

The ones that resigned are mostly bad eggs. The ones that resigned are supporting an officer who beat a defenseless protestor.

THERE IS NO NEED FOR VIOLENCE.

I REPEAT, THE INDIVIDUAL SHOT WAS WHITE. PLEASE DISPERSE PEACEFULLY.

you never should have voted to legalize potholes!

Everything east of 82nd is one big pothole. The land that the City of Portland forgot (but more likely choose to ignore…..)

Most of Lane County is on a flood plain...I voted for a gas tax to fix potholes but ODOT controls the hiway through the watershed and so there are pot holes in front of all the gas stations where I pay the tax...they really needed to build an overpass through the Fern Ridge Dam area of 126...it's brutal for sink holes

I remember going to a concert @ Mississippi Studios. Whole lot of fun! Ate somewhere near there, but can't remember where. Maybe Interurban.

Apropos pretty much nuttin’……my cousin and I went to a concert at Mississippi Studios just as the pandemic started picking up steam. We saw Nikki Lane and she was awesome (cute too). She lives in Nashville and has a vintage shop called High Class Hillbilly. You and your wife should both check her and shop out…….the girl can sing.

7 people shot downtown last night. One woman dead. Portland is a shithole.
