Portland


It’s like Portland’s almost an alternative universe. It’s like Gore won. The Bush administration never happened. In Portland it’s almost like cars don’t exist, right? People ride bikes or double-decker bikes. They ride unicycles. They ride the tram. They ride skateboards! In Portland you can put a bird on something and just call it art!
