    Doesn't really change the myth, brother! Sounds like you're saying she's gotten lucky (despite being attached to you)!

    My wife says she never stood a chance of being a good driver. She's female, she's short, she's Asian, and she's from SoCal....

    I didn’t realize you were an old woman! What do you mean you can’t drive!?!? You are a man (at least I thought you were) it’s in your DNA.

    Not Sly, the mole that keeps turning me into the team for being a racist bully is who I’m watching out for.

    I’m a great driver. I just don’t drive much these days so I’m not up on best habits/practices.

    I mean, it’s easy for YOU to be a good driver. Hard to be a bad driver when you’re riding those slow-moving lawn mowers, FAMS!

    Or, if not trying to make money, simply have each speed limit sign give off a signal indicating the desired speed. Have people's cruise control pick up the signal and go that speed.

    Why not have the speed limit sign communicate directly with the Bill Gates microchip in the driver's arm?

    Defund the police BECAUSE of the rising crime. Don't have them do jobs they aren't good at, and since they aren't doing the work, don't pay them for it.

    Or just shut the Portland Police down and have Multnomah County take over. They aren't doing their job, and weren't doing it well before 2020.

    This would be my preferred solution. Hence the 5G vaccines...

    Dude, now you’re just hunting and pecking. . That area has been a complete shit hole for the last 75 years. Please find me a link or a picture of that area in a clean dialed state. St. John’s area has definitely cleaned up in the last 25 to 30 years, but that area where that business is hass always been meth labs and shit hole houses.

    i admit. I am hunting. But its just because i think the downside of the city is being dismissed by many when discussing the state of the city.
    Also. Im not claiming anything caused anything in that post, other than showing Portland needs serious help with cleanup.
    Trust me, I'm sad. I love Portland. I want it all to be beautiful. I just know some parts aren't, and i don't think they should be left behind when we all discuss whats going on in the city and the current state it is in.

    ill add that it has bothered me considerably( as much as an online forum can) that while i have been trying to point out that there are many areas of Portland in serious need of help,
    Not only have most people not shared in the caring but have actively tried to pit me as some bad guy for asserting there are issues. As if its wrong of me to keep this from being swept under the rug.
    Its where my much of my abrasiveness has stemmed from….
