Hi. I'm from Portland. I am so awesome it should be illegal.

@9P1702Dodge @GTS206 @charlie_shain @RadioFreeTom I get emails and calls from friends and family concerned as to whether I'm staying out of harm's way. I live near downtown Portland and, uh...it's fine. Little bit cold today? We ain't exactly beyond Thunderdome, people.

@SydneyBattle My Grandpa John used to call me Roscoe P. Coltrane (ya know, like in The Dukes of Hazzard). I hated it at the time, but I would gladly put up with that nickname for the rest of my life if it meant I could spend even one more day with him.

@dolphinman47 @bblock29 Gym Jordan is a reprehensible sack of trash. Far more charming and respectable things can be found by lifting up a large rock.

@briskide @redditships This made me cry, but in a good way. Thank you so much for sharing this story.

@marthagrover @kickstarter You are so welcome!

[Ross Robbins @RossRobbinsPoet]

I just backed Martha (@marthagrover) Grover's new book, "Sorry I Was Gone, a Lyric Memoir" on @Kickstarter!

I hope you'll join me in supporting this project. Martha is a pillar of the PDX literary community, and she deserves all of our love and support!

@nenocenturi0n Cat Power, Beach House, PJ Harvey, Hole, The Fiery Furnaces. But #1 is Joanna Newsom. She's not really a "rock" musician, but she's a genius. If you've not heard her stuff, I insist you drop whatever you're doing and go listen to two albums to start: "Ys" and "Have One On Me."

@LaTR75 @dorkistry @briskide @AITA_reddit I live near a park in downtown Portland that is constantly full of geese and it is seriously a carpet of goose poop. Geese are a menace and I think it's high time we declare war!

@laynepetersen @bdlrtb @mermaid_daisy @geocon1713 I like my town
With a little drop of poison
Nobody knows
They're linin' up to go insane

I'm all alone
I smoke my friends down to the filter
But I feel much cleaner
After it rains

@ThatEricAlper Nirvana - Scentless Apprentice
Joe Cocker - With a Little Help From My Friends
Janis Joplin - Piece of My Heart

but Xiu Xiu's "I Luv the Valley OH!” is still without a doubt my #1 answer. It's a masterpiece. A truly perfect song.
