DYNAMIC DENTAL TIME WITHOUT THE DRAMA

February 10, 2014 by

Have you seen the dental form that asks how you feel? How do you feel about dentists? About making dental appointments? How do you feel about waiting in the dentist’s waiting room?

PORTLAND’S BOOMER CASTLE ON BROADWAY

February 1, 2014 by

You don’t have to go to France to feel the grandeur of a beautiful room. Or a cathedral in Spain for the ornate. Walk into the Benson Hotel on Broadway for the same feeling of WOW. The size is different, but the details are wonderful. For an Old World taste in the New World, this […]

SPORTSMANSHIP AND THE SUPER BOWL FANS

Play To The Whistle. Everyone who’s played football at any level knows the first rule. Keep in mind this is organized football with coaches and referees, not a side yard game of wipeout. Or a beach game of pound the sand. If you’ve worn a mouthguard and a helmet with a face mask, then you’ve […]

The Perfect Painter For Dark Days Of The Soul. You’re not the first Portland baby boomer to wake up on a Sunday with no NFL games that matter. No early game, no late game, no Football Night In America game. You’re depressed, but don’t want to admit it’s because of no football. College ball is […]

Powell’s Books, Phillip Margolin, And Worthy Brown’s Daughter

January 23, 2014 by

Listen to a man say he writes but only took one college writing class. He admits to grinding out a C+, then says he’d like to talk to an MFA fiction expert one day to learn how writing really works. The same man tried writing historical fiction for thirty years. He took one history class. If the main question of history is, […]

How To Be A Media Star In Seattle

January 22, 2014 by

Richard Sherman Takes A Bow. For all the sweet talk between opponents, no one except the Seahawks and their fans embrace the Seattle cornerback. He plays an isolation position and seems to live the same way. Don’t mistake this man for Pacman Jones and the ‘scrip club’ rain. Don’t put him with Hollywood Henderson, the […]

What stood out most in last night’s Blazer vs Pistons NBA game? The late game heroics of Damian Lillard closing the door? The fierce pace of LaMarcus Aldridge?
