BEST PORTLAND BLOGS

Portland Blogs For Baby Boomers; What Works, What Doesn’t. The best way to know a city is by its blogs. Just make sure you read them before you arrive.

AS THE BLAZER FALLS

Not The New Guys, The Blazer Quitters. The numbers don’t look good. Eighty percent of last years Portland Trail Blazer starting five left town. Of that 80%, half wrote goodbye letters to Blazer fans.

OREGON LEGAL WEED?

Oregon Legal Weed Law Breaks Ground? Not Really. The modern stoner may not do a ten year blast for weed seeds. Getting high and getting caught isn’t a one way ticket to the felon life, but you will pay a price if you don’t follow the rules. Toward that end a radio ad explains how […]

Two men walked into the bar, silhouettes against the glaring sun.                   They looked like two weekend yard guys at happy hour. Jeans and t-shirts, mid-fifties. In different clothes they’d fit into any country club. Tight hair and smooth shaves do that. One ordered a black and […]

NBA HOME TO PORTLAND

Home. It’s a warm word with sweet references. Home is warm and sweet like a cup of hot chocolate on Hawthorne. Sweet and warm like a pot of comfort tea in the Pearl. Home in the NBA used to mean wherever you got drafted. That’s why it’s called the home court. Then LeBron left Cleveland. […]
