OT - Keep Portland Weird
Portland has a reputation for being weird. I could give you examples but you really have to be here a while to experience it. "Keep Portland Weird" is probably the most popular bumper sticker and there's a side of a large building with that painted on it. Not only that, but almost everyone here is proud of being thought of as weird - at least as compared to everyone else.
I just wanted to share this. Yesterday, my daughter Jennifer called me to say she saw a bumper sticker that was "typical of Portland". It said "SUPPORT BACTERIA. THAT'S THE ONLY CULTURE SOME PEOPLE HAVE". Yep, that's Portland all right.
