    I ain't doing shit but homework lately, but I came across this for any Portlanders who are geeks about old school arcade games (as I am):

    https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/one-portland-arcade-not-game-021244884.html

    Quarters? Didn't know about this place. They're renting out cabinet games and pinball machines to paying customers, but not sure what they're charging. Anyhoo, thought that was kinda cool. If I could afford it, I'd totally rent me an old punch-out or galaga cabinet.

    I loved your novel.
    Pine trees are everywhere in Alabama and Georgia and I'm positive that Tennessee has an abundance of them

    As for passenger only, speak for yourself. I dangle mine out every window.
    The redwoods are absolutely the most awesome thing I've ever seen although Crown Point on a sunny day rivals the redwoods. I drove through that tree when I was a toddler and our family took a trip there. I then drove through there again while on my first honeymoon and again while on a trip to or from Reno. Love that drive up the coast all the way from Big Sur to Olympia, Washington. Spectacular. My favorite river is the Breitenbush which empties into Detroit reservoir and comes out of there I believe as the Santiam. This also held my favorite state park camp ground.
    I played my share of pinball when I was in college. That and marijuana are my two major regrets while in college. That was closely followed by too much time spent with various girlfriends which my father warned me about but died before he could divert me.

    Ha!...I meant what breed obviously. Kinds looks like a Weimaraner but some of its hair looks kinda long.

    ...besides, the couch had covers on it.

    I've read conflicting reports but out of an abundance of caution I have microwaved the food I've gotten the few times from restaurants.

    Some food sucks when microwaved but Burgerville's Fish & Waffle Cut Fries is damn tasty even after being nuked for a minute.

    No food trucks rolling around here.

    Reminds me of Atlanta. Food trucks would frequent job sites with cheap high calorie crap for people doing manual labor jobs.

    We get a food truck every Thursday in front of our building. Usually they suck ass though and overpriced. Too many shitty food trucks and the mexican ones that are usually good are less hygenic, so I'd stay away from those for right now.

    They complain that they don't get to see enough of it. So, eat your heart out Barfo.

    They must have pretty high-powered telescopes.

    Actually, she's a Sheepadoodle. She plays a lot with our other smaller Shorky. We're derelict in our duty to keep her brushed therefore, her hair ends up getting matted.

    Hence, the sheep-shorn look. LOL. It's all good, though. She wears it well, and summer's coming.

    Thanks for asking.
