When Words Go On Vacation-Poetry in Motion on the MAX

Something tells me that Oregon is in for a crazy Winter...

First Snowfall Hits Mt. Hood and more snow is on the way-it's only October!

TriMet plus Halloween 2010

Trimetiquette

Eliminate the term 'accident'? I think not.

Well, Bike Portland is at it again. 

So, what this sounds like to me is that whenever an operator has a crash, they deliberately did it? Someone has to be at fault? There can be no real accidents? Really? That just doesn't make sense. As Cameron Johnson of Ravings of a Trimet Ally  put it, 'Is TriMet TRYING to fire drivers?'

Quick Note/mini rant

Okay, i've got a quick little note here. I am a Portland biker. Portland cyclists are often thought of as the majority of people who hate TriMet (or at least a lot of them do) and never follow traffic rules. Often, thats the stereotype. Remember-not everyone follows that stereotype. I do not. I am a frequent transit rider and biker. I am a TriMet ally, although i will admit, TriMet makes that pretty hard to stand up for them sometimes. I do follow traffic rules when biking. I wait at red lights instead of blazing right through them and will let cars pass me when it is possible for me to get out of the way. When there are bike lanes on the roads i bike, i will be in them instead of slowing traffic. So think again if you decide to criticize me for something i have posted or something that i have commented on about being a typical portland biker because I am not.

Okay, rant over.

Peace!

Just a Post

Well, not many posts yet. I blame it on homework, cause in high school we sure do get a lot of it. I'm going to work on posting more, but if i can't, its because of stupid homework. Also, theres not much going on right now that catches my interest enough to bother posting it here.
Soon, i also will start putting daily pictures up. The main subjects will be transit or just something from one of my excursions.
Well, gotta get back to the torture called homework! Bye

Another Brick in the Wall

Well, this is a song that i imagine a lot of kids can relate to. The song is Another Brick in the Wall by Pink Floyd. One of my friends showed this to me and we then came up with another version of the song;
We don't need no controlling parents. We don't need no thought control. No dark sarcasm in the front room. Parents, leave us kids alone. Hey, Parents! Leave us kids alone! All in all you're just another brick in the wall. All in all you're just another brick in the wall.
