    We've got three roundabouts, or as I call them, a turnaround, in my neck of the woods and everyone seems to know perfectly well how to use them. I seldom find a driver who gets confused by them. Of course it's Lake Oswego with lots of college educated people. People seem to do a lot of things with more sanity here including drive.

    I have a cousin that lives and Bend and told me firsthand that the mayor is horrible.

    Are you boasting that you talk to your cousin directly?

    I'm sure Pendleton will remain safe from the city-slickers.

    I know how they work, I just find they throw off my natural sense of direction but that's because I'm not that familiar with the residential streets there.....the one by the Eugene airport is great...I understand why they are adapting them

    Being a good driver or educated has nothing to do with one's sense of direction...people who live there obviously know the lay of the land

    That's a separate issue. You're now talking about my wife, who gets confused when I tell her turn right and then point to the right and says she wouldn't get confused if I'd just keep quiet, and my mother, now deceased.

    sounds like Portland, too.

    For the first time in my life, I would feel okay with not living here anymore.

    Why is your family ending in places I've been or are at? This is getting scary.

    I made out with one of my cousins in HS 2 or 3 times....... Always wanted to share that. Never thought it would be here though.
