JC? What happened to H'ken?

Apparently all of your fine state is off the table now, which I'm cool with.

I'd vote for Seattle/Portland as well.

Boston is nasty - I worked there.

Chicago is expensive (for what it is) and colder than hell.

Lady, people aren't chocolates. Do you know what they are mostly? Bastards. ####### coated bastards with ####### filling. But I don't find them half as annoying as I find naive bobble-headed optimists who walk around vomiting sunshine.

Losers :P

You're not tough enough for NYC.

The city chewed you up and spat you out.

:whistle:

People always say that. From inside their tiny craptastic apartments with bugs and sh!tty water pressure.

Anyway, nobody needs to be tough to live in NY anymore. This is Disney NY. You've never even been to the "tough" NY.

Either way, I still want to stay. But we're two people.

Alex, I have lived in Portland my whole life. I have been to many other cities, but they always seem to be lacking. We have all the things that a large city The Oregon Ballet, The Oregon Symphony, Portland Art Museum. You would fit in politically too, I bet!

If you like the New York style living you would want to live in the Pearl District Down Town, If you would like the suburban style upper middle class type of living in a house with a decent size yard live on the West Side or Beaverton, If you have the cash you would want to live in the West Hills right above Down Town Portland just next to the Zoo, Like in the Everclear song that goes " I will buy you a big house way up in the west hills." that is where he stole that line from. Ever since I was a boy living in the south east we always said what you think you are rich, you want to live in the West Hills.North and North east Portland are kind of a mixed bag some very expensive 100 year old homes and some of the more of the higher crime, low income areas. I have Lived in South East most all of my life, this is lower middle class blue collar type of area. And I will live here all the rest my life, a minority Republican in a sea of Democrats.

But it is the literally the Garden of Eden compared to the rest of the country.

My beloved Joy is here, married and pregnant!

Baby due March 28, 2009

Portland was the only place I ever searched on dice.com and didn't find a single result...

Dayton, OH has more opportunities for me than Portland...

That's because Dayton is close to Cincinnati & Columbus - both big cities with big companies.

Portland is full of non-working hippies. ;)

I live in Portland, Dev. Would you consider me a Hippie?

You'll have to forgive her (or ignore her).... her brush only comes in one width.
