    Thinking of taking my next vacation either to Las Angles, New York City or Portland, Oregon. Not sure which of these 3 cities are great in the summer? Any recommendations?

    Personally I would be be choosing either LA or NYC but I have to throw a 20 pound block of salt in with that because I grew up in the middle of the Portland /Salem corridor on I-5 and still know streets in both areas better than Spokane or the other "bigger" cities around this area I live now. I never have been to LA and only seen NYC once. Used to work in Beaverton and enjoy the lovely traffic on 217 and I-5 on a daily basis. But anyway....

    On a more objective note, Portland is a fantastic place for a vacation. There are places like OMSI, the Japanese Rose Gardens, etc, and that is just off the top of my head. I have always heard that some of the locally brewed beer options in Portland are top notch as well but cannot speak on that myself.

    Portland is very nice in the summer. It isn't as humid as NYC. I've never been to Los Angeles in summer. There are lots of wonderful things to do outside of Portland as well--Mt. Hood, the Columbia River Gorge, Mt. St. Helens, the Oregon coast. Also, no sales tax, and I'm here, as is ZombieSquirrel.

    It depends on what you want to do. NYC is great for culture and shopping. Portland is great if you want something with a different vibe and you want to get outside.

    You can always visit Tillamook to tour the cheese factory and see the sites like the air musuem as well. Makes a nice stop on the way to the coast for some fresh chowder or other seafood of choice.

    More important that WHAT I do, is WHOM do I do it with, and WHERE do I do it.

  13. What are day two's reasons for loving this job WAY more than my last job???

    1. My boss says to me, "I am very flexible. You work the hours that are best for you. As long as you get the work done, I will allow anything."
    My last boss said I had to be there at 8 to open the office. It shouldn't have been my job, but they got rid of all the office help. Did they ever say anything when I worked well past 5? Nope.

    2. New College cares more about the content on their website than what it looks like.
    Yes they care about what it looks like, but they care more about what they are SAYING with their website and how easily navigable it is. They're not worried about investing too much time on how it's dressed. The image that they want to convey is that they know what the fuck they're talking about.

    I just laughed so hard at buzzfeed's 35 worst autocorrects that I landed on somehow, by clicking on a previous member's posted link and following a suggested link, that I cried and now my stomach feels like I did a 45 minute ab workout. It was so worth it.

    I just learned that the doctor that I've been using for almost twenty years was arrested for threatening another doctor.
    I had my six month check-up with him next Monday, but because of this, he's been fired from the hospital.

    Dude! Wtf?
    He just didn't seem the type.

    Do you think the hospital will handle referrals?

    a new toilet seat has arrived in the treefort. not only is it a creepy ass-mirror (in that it creates and preserves a quite unflattering image of the underside of the important thoughts of great moment that one thinks while sitting there) but there is a sign that cannot be removed which warns of the possibility that the apparatus might burst into flames at any moment.

    it disturbs me.
    it disturbs me greatly.
