*Sigh* If only the Blazers could have drafted a bit higher in 1984. They had their sights set on John Stockton. Instead, they ended up with that NBA stalwart, Benard Thompson.
Not everyone goes to a batting cage or driving range to practice hitting a ball. A lot of people go to blow off steam, and that's the same reason why a lot of people go shooting. They like to just go and shoot. Not everyone is practicing killing someone. They just enjoy shooting at bottles or cans, or big plastic fake deer. The point is, not everyone who owns a gun is out to kill people, or wants to kill people. I enjoy going to the batting cages sometimes, and I haven't played softball or baseball in years. It's just fun to blow off some steam. Do you think playing FPS video games is better or worse than going shooting with a real gun? In one case you're shooting at paper, in another you're shooting at fake people. You tell me.
If you ever have a chance check out the Portland Storage building down there. It was orginally the first John Deere Tractor factory west of the Mississippi. The freight elevator is MASSIVE. It could easily hold 2 of your UPS trucks.
Some of the freight elevators in those old decrepit buildings in SE are creepy as shit and I'd rather just drag the boxes up 4 flights of stairs with the hand truck. They had me down by City Liquidators area and I loved that route. Plenty of space to back into loading docks. From the Willamette all the way out to Chavez. 130 stops, 50 pickups.
If you're talking about the Portland Storage building right across from the Montage I've delivered there it sucks.
