Portland...Great City, or Greatest City?



From KGW (July 30th)...

PORTLAND, Ore. -- It's happened across the country -- traffic signs getting hijacked by computer hackers, and now it's happened in Portland.

A contractor’s traffic sign on the Powell just east of the Ross Island Bridge overnight Wednesday read “Caution zombie strippers."

The sign had been switched off by Thursday morning.

Top 5 Nostalgic Songs

These are not the top 5 songs that make me nostalgic (that's a whole other list beginning with "Shook Me All Night Long" and ending with "Come Sail Away"). No, these are the Top 5 songs about the very experience of nostalgia.

Honorable Mention: "The Backseat" - The Gaslight Anthem

5. "Crocodile Rock" - Elton John
4. "In My Life" - The Beatles
3. "Do You Remember Rock n' Roll Radio?" - The Ramones
2. "The Trapeze Swinger" - Iron & Wine
1. "Summer of '69" - Bryan Adams

graduation open house!

Hey all,

What was going to be a graduation open house with family friends and teachers (due to the combined social circles of the three graduating Colwells) has become a total, crazed free-for-all, so you (Gravy and Internet) are all invited to stop by sometime tomorrow (Sunday) at my house between 4pm-10pm.

Sorry for the late notice, I only started inviting people today, but there will be food, beverages, and ping-pong, possibly all at once.

Hope I see you there, if you all need directions let me know--

Ken

I cried too, Ron


for different reasons...

If Ron hopes to see him next year does that mean he's planning on dying?

Note: some profanity
