As somebody who commuted six miles daily on a one-speed cruiser Frankenstein for several years (before I gave it away, I had changed every part, including the frame, except for the front wheel), I can much better handle the kind of clown who welds together some funky cool bikes than some other kinds of clowns I saw last weekend. Plus it turns out we've got a zero degrees of separation...filed under: st johns

In a piece titled The Status Quo Can Suck It!, the Mercury, darling of Portland's pop-rock fans, endorses consummate City Hall insider Sam Adams for Mayor.

Maybe not, but the e-mail I got from his former boss today sure seems like it. With Middaugh's opponent Nick Fish picking up all three big media endorsements (Oregonian, Willamette Week and Tribune) and trouncing Middaugh by 21 points in BlueOregon's straw poll, the Middaugh campaign has called on his former boss, Commissioner Erik Sten, to send out an e-mail plea to his supporters to work...
I've written some recently about gentrification and certain candidates' fixation on the idea that 300,000 new residents will be shortly arriving in Portland. Sam Adams, Chris Smith and Jim Middaugh have all thrown this number around as the gospel truth, to the delight of big real estate developers who are looking forward to Sam Adams as mayor. These guys aren't all that thrilled with the...
