Beat up bike spotted in front of Common Grounds Coffee House, 4321 SE Hawthorne Boulevard.

Portland, Oregon: Cheap-Ass Cars & Spendy Bikes
Phoenix, Arizona: Spendy cars & cheap-ass bikes. Can we trade?
Portland boasts lower car resale prices than most other U.S. towns. Unfortunately, the burden of over-priced used bicycles is greater only in Seattle. Will City Repair's "community lantern walks" become a favorite activity for Portlandians squeezed out of city's costly used bike culture? Or how 'bout serving up a "$20 plan" as a tasty side dish to the city's "20 minute plan"?

Predator pilot strikes inferior village people with robotic hellfire to protect superior drone culture.

Kindle-Reading Predator Drone Pilot Wipes Out Entire Village Of Missing School Children
A distracted Lt. Lahcen Qouchbane accidentally squeezed his joystick moments after Sports Illustrated's "Swimsuit Issue" downloaded to his Kindle 3G. The errant squeeze unleashed the wrath of one thousand missile-drones, raining hellfire down upon the tiny village of Kyron, located in the remote Horman province. Qouchbane's joystick snafu was compounded by a CIA contractor who "illegally and hastily reverse-engineered" drone software code resulting in "inaccurate" targeting "by up to 13 metres."
Go to stories:
CIA used 'illegal, inaccurate code to target kill drones' 'They want to kill people with software that doesn't work'
Pakistan drone attacks kill scores: At least three suspected US drone attacks in the Pakistani tribal region of South Waziristan kill at least 28 people.

Homeless dispersal policy results.

Portland's Homeless Populations: "Keep 'em helpless, hopeless and above all, atomized."
Why not add "barefoot and pregnant" to that list? "But if people have no choice, it's my preference that they find smaller, dispersed places to camp." - Portland City Commissioner Nick Fish
