OT Moving to NE Portland, fams!

I used to occasionally go to Ethel's after work and have one of their 59 cent high balls. They had a reader board that wrapped around the dance floor that was controlled by a PDP-8 computer that was so cool.

 

My dad told stories about Ethyl’s, of course. He worked at ESI probably around the same time you were at Tek(?).

 

Must be nice...

I'm gentrified to Milwaukie.

I used to live on 28th, 26th, and 18th and Alberta.

The house I grew up in (not nice at all...) Is over $550K.

I can move to Tigard for less than $400K...

Alberta is gentrification central. I don't ever spend money on that street...

 

Yup...

 

There and Jack's are the only places I spend money on Alberta.

 

Hey! He was talking about ME FAMS!

 

I don't suppose anyone rode a street car to Oaks Park?
Saw a ball game at Vaughn Street?

 

I grew up in the Sellwood neighborhood and went to Oaks Park often.

 

I was at Tek from 1969 through 1983. I had a friend who worked at ESI but that was in the 80s. My friend got his degree from PSU.

 

I've been to Oaks park about a dozen times. I also went to the Jantzen Beach amusement park even more often.
I love the Sellwood neighborhood.

 

That's what made him agreeing with me hilarious.

 

I’ll have to double check.

Read it recently in Robert Kiyosaki’s book rich dad Poor dad.

My dad worked at ESI from 1974-1982, and again from 1989-2006, got his degree from OIT.

 

I’m not buying... I bought in Tigard for less than $400k but they kinda don’t like my kind, so I’m leaving.

 

Please contact me before you change your avatar next time, and I can help you chose something more appropriate....

 

DAMN! I forgot about that..... Lol

 

I just wonder where I stand. I've considered myself upper middle class.
