return to the tubes of the interweb

again, i post the blog.

again, i try to share my thoughts and feelings.

again, i say i will do this more often.

again, i make no gare-ohn-tees.

places of residence in my life:
wadena, mn
hibbing, mn
worcester, ma
milford, ma
beaverton, or

i am now on my 5th "home"town and 3rd major geographical region: midwest, new england, pacific northwest.

my biggest disappointment with portland so far: lack of major league sports.
all we have are the trailblazers, who suck.
it's not like minnesota or boston who had all 4 major sports and a rabid enthusiasm in those teams.
for crying out loud, portland just had a celebration for 1977 nba championship 'blazer team.
30 fucking years!

other random thoughts on portland/oregon:

people here love their local made booze. which i approve of.

there is an overrunning of liberals here that are of the mindset of "we should do this because it's politically correct and not conservative" and not "we should do this liberal thing because it's best for america." this is a book's worth of expository essays.

the population of portland is like 30% hipster. and i feel that hipsters are the greatest threat to modern american culture since the hippies went on a rampage in the 60s/70s.

but this is a rant for another day. maybe soon, hipsters are rocketing up my list of social groups that annoy me:

1. suicide bombing terrorist supporting islamic fundamentalists
2. socially conservative bush supporting christian fundamentalists
3. dirty hippies. (i don't mind hippies per se. in fact, i think of myself of a quasi-hippie. it's the dirty-always-drugged-patchouli-wearing-vegan-preaching hippies that i can't stand.)
4. green bay packer fans
5. hipsters

i think the main reason hipsters annoy me is because if i was slightly cooler, i would want to pretend to be super cool and become a hipster, too. :(
