I know its his “thing” to hate on us bike enthusiasts out here on the temperate west coast who love to get naked and joyfully pedal in the woods (or downtown), but comparing the Flaming Lips music to being “about as exciting as a big bucket of old bongwater” just [...]
As my roommates commented before I ventured out last night for a haircut with a new stylist, “Ginger Suite… that sounds yummy!”
And yummy it was. Walking into the salon is a veritable goody shop for the well-heeled lady. After my coiffure was complete, Travis plopped in the the chair for a [...]

Spring has arrived in Portland!
Experiencing a new climate, especially the lush temperate rain-foresty one such as Portland is so amazing! I had no idea beautiful little flowers like these spread like wildflowers! What a treat

There is a flower Within my heart, Daisy, Daisy! Planted one day By a glancing dart, Planted by Daisy Bell! Whether she loves me Or loves me not, Sometimes it's hard to tell; Yet I am longing to share the lot - Of beautiful Daisy Bell! Daisy, Daisy, Give me your answer do! I'm half crazy, All for the love of you! It won't be a stylish marriage, I can't afford a carriage But you'll look sweet upon the seat Of a bicycle made for two. We will go 'tandem' As man and wife, Daisy, Daisy! 'Peddling' away Down the road of life, I and my Daisy Bell! When the road's dark We can both despise P'licemen and 'lamps' as well; There are 'bright lights’ In the dazzling eyes Of beautiful Daisy Bell! Daisy, Daisy, Give me your answer do! I'm half crazy, All for the love of you! It won't be a stylish marriage, I can't afford a carriage But you'll look sweet upon the seat Of a bicycle made for two. I will stand by you In 'weal' or woe, ["weal" means prosperity] Daisy, Daisy! You'll be the bell(e) Which I'll ring you know! Sweet little Daisy Bell! You'll take the 'lead' In each 'trip' we take, Then if I don't do well, I will permit you to Use the brake, My beautiful Daisy Bell!
