I live just outside NYC, so I am rarely surprised.
Dedicated to Sgt. Howard Bruckner 1950 - 1969. KIA LONG KHANH.

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?

I was born in Portland. I've never got to lived there as an adult but everytime I go I want to stay. If I ever become a bum you'll find me sleeping under the Burnside bridge skating and doing bum stuff. That is the only city I've ever been to that has skate paths.
I'll be riding up this summer to escape the Houston heat and see my ol high school girlfriend dance at Sassy's if anyone knows "Malice" tell her I said hi. When I was a kid I planned a runaway to this fair city. it's a skateboarder motorcycle punk heaven.

That is normal around here.   The city's moto is, "Keep Portland Weird." 

And they stole that from Austin.

But only Portland sports the moniker:

LITTLE BEIRUT!

My young friend and adopted daughter, Wendy, is a cook at Sassy's.  I'll see if she knows Malice.  

Portland does have more strip joints per capita than any other city...

Heh...Sassy's!! My good friend Raz was a cook there for a long time before him and his bud Pat became "security"... get absolutely awesome drinks when I go there with them.  Maybe we should schedule a local "planning committee" meeting there?  :o :o  8)

Wow, I haven't thought of Sassy's in a long time.

When my buddies and I were all young and single, we used to have a Christmas Eve tradition- drive around and hand out stolen Christmas trees to the homeless and then retire to Sassy's (the only place open @ 12:30 pm on Christmas eve) for a good old time.
Ahhh, the holidays....


Starkmojo, did you know that it was Reagan's secret service boys who gave us the 'Little Beirut' title back in the 80's? They used to HATE to come here because of all the #$%* we'd give El Presidente.

Oh, good times, indeed!

Nice, I'll have good drinking company when I'm in town. Portland rules.

I had heard it was Bush I who gave us that name- but I am glas it has a little more history!!

Oh, good times, indeed!
