Single-speeds aka 'Fixies' are next to useless on the hills around the Portland urban center, so unless you are talking about downtown, most people here have a geared bike. Well except douche hipsters, I love passing them while they pant or walk their bikes up hills.

This summer I bought a Swobo 9-speed with an internal drive train, after my lovely Kona was stolen. You can get a cheaper 3-speed version of the same thing but the changes in gear ratios are jarring. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/pr..." target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003RZTBTQ?ie=UT...">http://www.amazon.com/gp/pr...

In the same spirit we subsidize corn prices so people will become obese, so we can deny them medical care.

Scottsdale is one of the only places in the country you can see fat rich people outside of the southern states. It should be made into a nature reserve.

BJs are like eggs it takes a pro to mess one up, not the other way around.

Quick, name an actual terrorist the FBI arrested before the actual terrorism. If you got all white Christian militia members you win a beer.

I imagine the sting went something like this...

Undercover FBI “Hey kid! How would you like to blow up a Christmas tree? Kid “ Boy would I!” UF “We’ll give you everything you need. Just push the button.” Kid “I’ll have to ask my mom first.” UF “ Awww come on kid, what are you some kind of sissy momma’s boy?” Kid “ I ain’t no sissy! Gimmi the button!” UF “ Kid, you’re gonna be a martyr.” Kid “What’s a martyr?”

The FBI is using this to force Portland's mayor to join the anti-terrorism task force. We opted out because we believe in civil rights, now we are going to have 100k a a year goons running around arresting more teenagers. <a href="http://www.oregonlive.com/p..." target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://www.oregonlive.com/portland/index.ssf/2010...">http://www.oregonlive.com/p...
