I attended college in Portland in the early 90's. I still love visiting the city, the public library, Powell's books, catching a Winterhawks game, and exploring all the beers. IFC runs a show called PORTLANDIA that skewers the city quite well, and in the best way possible. To give you a peak at Portland's vibe see the great clip below.
In a flash of clarity, I now understand why so many of my friends from slacker days in Austin in the 90s moved to Portland.
ReplyDeleteThe siren song of Clown School...note my college was not a clown school...but my wife is hot and does wear glasses, so I guess you can leave Portland, but part of it stays with you.
