:-) Best thing I've heard about Portland yet. -- nm - Krusty Dec 5, 09:07 37
- that they're unprepared? -- nm - loosilu Dec 5, 09:08 36
  - Well that's one way to look at it. - Krusty Dec 5, 09:16 35
    - We get snow a few days a year, and it's usually followed a day or two later with warmer air moving in and melting it. - Redmond Dec 5, 09:20 34
      - Good to know. I hate the dirty snow, I live on the corner of a very busy intersection. It's black an hour after it hits the ground. -- nm - Krusty Dec 5, 09:26 33
        
        You are going to laugh your ass off. So this is the typical snow event in Portland. - Redmond Dec 5, 09:34 32
        
        *laughing* That's great! - Krusty Dec 5, 09:50 12
        
        When are you moving? -- nm - Redmond Dec 5, 09:52 11
        
        We're heading there this spring to look at neighborhoods and probably houses. - Krusty Dec 5, 09:58 10
        
        It's awesome here. It truly is. The people are a little nuts, but that's okay. -- nm - Redmond Dec 5, 10:00 9
        
        We're looking at Beaverton, seems like we can afford the houses there and it's not too far from downtown. - Krusty Dec 5, 10:10 8
        
        It's very slow paced, and yes very liberal. Beaverton is great I lived there for awhile. - Redmond Dec 5, 10:17 7
        
        Not having an AL baseball team is a huge downside for me, I'll have to make regular trips to Seattle to see the Yankees play. - Krusty Dec 5, 10:22 6
        
        They have minor league baseball, and it looks like, an MLS team too soon? -- (link) - TFox Dec 5, 10:26 2
        
        I have a feeling it's going to take some time before the team name Beavers doesn't make me laugh. -- nm - Krusty Dec 5, 10:28 1
        
        Oregon is the Beaver State. We have a Beaver on our state flag -- nm - Redmond Dec 5, 10:29
        
        A year or two ago we were rated #1 in the country for best Restaurants. - Redmond Dec 5, 10:25 2
        
        Sweet! Nice to know I won't lose much food wise. I worry about the pizza. -- nm - Krusty Dec 5, 10:26 1
        
        I'd also worry about the bagels. - adventy97 Dec 5, 10:29
        
        it's not fair that you never have snow to play in if it's gonna get that cold - 'lia Dec 5, 09:48 18
        
        Last year we had 3 feet of snow. It paralyzed the city. - Redmond Dec 5, 09:50 17
        
        I should say, 3 feet at my house, Portland had about a foot. -- nm - Redmond Dec 5, 09:52 16
        
        and you never bought a snow shovel? -- nm - 'lia Dec 5, 09:53 15
        
        To buy a snow shovel you would have to have a place that sells a snow shovel. -- nm - Redmond Dec 5, 09:55 14
        
        a hardware store? - 'lia Dec 5, 09:59 7
        
        Sears, Walmart, Target, Home Depot. Tons of places. Sometimes truck stops. -- nm - loosilu Dec 5, 10:17
        
        We have them. Why would you carry an item that sells maybe once every 7 years? -- nm - Redmond Dec 5, 10:00 5
        
        why do I have a hunch you didn't actually go looking for a shovel? -- nm - loosilu Dec 5, 10:14 4
        
        Sound like a kid could make some loot going house to house on days like that. - Krusty Dec 5, 10:16 3
        
        yup -- nm - 'lia Dec 5, 10:22
        
        Krusty's job search is *over*. :) -- nm - TFox Dec 5, 10:17 1
        
        *googles native american snow dances* -- nm - Krusty Dec 5, 10:25
        
        *calls elves* -- nm - TFox Dec 5, 09:57 5
        
        Dude!! You might find a store that has 2 or 3, but when it snows they are gonzo!! - Redmond Dec 5, 09:59 4
        
        dude, you don't go shopping for one after it snows. -- nm - loosilu Dec 5, 10:16 1
        
        no kidding - 'lia Dec 5, 10:24
        
        I'm half kidding. I lived in Nashville. Talk about a city that can't function with 6 inches of snow. - TFox Dec 5, 10:00 1
        
        We use tire chains and studded tires here. My work vehicle has studs on it right now. - Redmond Dec 5, 10:02
