Just back after a short break from work. Fabulous city is Portland - friendly people, nice weather (at least this time of year) probably the most liberal state in the whole of the USA. PORTLANDIA rules!
Quote from: "Gay Boy Bob"
Portland is a predominantly caucasian city, maybe the most caucasian city in the USA or so I have read.
I visited there once. Too much Quinoa and everything was called artisan that or artisan this.
Quote from: "Dinky Dianna"
That seems like a big Nelson, BC.
Very much so Fash. I've been to both and Portland is pretty hippy dippy but still a neat city. It's too quinoa for me too though.
One of my friends is moving to Nelson, full of dreams :). She's so young she's never seen the movie "Roxanne." I hope she'll be happy there. She's artistic, very sweet.
Like most uber liberal areas it's a town full of white guilt and birkenstocks. It's fucking annoying.
... have visited portland a few times. cool city yes ...

Annoying white liberal hypocrites eh? No wonder Bob loves it.
Are you implying that bob is a white liberal hypocrite?
Quote from: "Renee"
People have their own reasons for liking cities that they do..
I may like places that some other people may not.
Quote from: "cc la femme"
How could a white liberal possibly be a hypocrite? ac_lmfao
If their liberal values only apply to others and not themselves, sure, they can be hypocrites.
San Diego is my favorite American city. Chicago and Nashville are exciting too.
When you say you are from Vancouver, Portlanders think you are a neighbour

So if I you say you are from Toronto do they think you are from Mars?

Vancouver, Washington is located just over the river from Portland, Oregon... a suburb so to speak.
duh
The River is the Columbia River which runs through my neck of the woods. Next time you're there Bob, I'll message in a bottle you!
Have you seen the very start of it? As a stream, it starts from a lake, forget the name, very near to Fairmont Development
There's more to the story, but that would be for the polka thread ...... Side's many in Portland might start drinking directly from the river if they knew .... we also know Portland, eh?
It is a rarity in that it flows north a long way (and I think between ranges) and then works its way back south to Portland
Quote from: "Gay Boy Bob"
I would argue that. if Portland is the most liberal city in the US of A, that excludes it from any mention of the greatest cities. Liberalism is a disgusting result of warped thinking by weak-minded retards. The same thinking that results in more and more programs for those who will not help themselves, the same thinking that says let's not keep score so no kid feels like a loser ala special olympics thinking, the same thinking that seeks to revise public thinking so we accept muslims, thugs, and illegal aliens is the same thinking that is ruining the world. Instead of teaching kids to grow up realizing that you can't be a winner at everything and to deal with it, the same people who can't realize that paying people to sit on their asses because they don't want to work is wrong and counter-productive, the same people who refuse to enforce laws about illegals and law breakers in some kind of twisted frame of mind that says let's all get along, and forgive and forget, that's the kind of mindset that grows nothing but weak-minded, undisciplined morons whose mantra is it's not my fault I did wrong, so don't punish me. The same kind of thinking that allows people to do what they feel like just because they can do it and to hell with punishment or repercussions.

The lake is Columbia Lake and I have seen it as a creek up near Fairmont (which I LOVE!). I too have a story about that place ;)

Please fill it with single malt scotch!

Have you done the tiny cave enclosed overflow pool at night? . floating candles ... floating red wineglasses ....... that's were my lover learned how long an Aussie beach gal could stay under water :wink: ... Maybe your tail and some of mine would be good for the polka.
We spent 2 complete seasons there on projects during the early really get to know each other sex-crazed phase of our relationship ... in our motor home parked in many interesting locations nearby
Even spent a few months parked just below Fairmont, a 1/2 mile from any other humans , 10 ft from the Columbia .. washed clothes naked in the river with the beavers (< set up for remarks)

The real question is whether Bob does in fact bob up or bob down when he spies a port land.
You mean who puts whose "Dinky" where?
If his crafted profile is actually for real, it sure as hell would not be put in "Dianna"

I'm sure what you've said is extremely witty where you come from, but perhaps, might you even possibly, (I don't know) make some real sense for the rest of us who speak the Queen's own and are left grappling with your disjointed word play?
Thank you in advance.
