| Nurses on strike - Jonathan House |
Drove by St. Vincent's Hospital on our way into Portland and there were what looked like a couple of hundred strikers lining the sidewalk, all dressed in green ponchos and carrying signs like those is the picture above. I would have liked to take a picture, but we were on a mission and my phone camera is not a point-and-shoot device.

| Bookshelf at Powell's |
Went to Powell's, head to the science fiction section, turn the corner and look what jumps out at me - a book titled RAPE. Well, that's an edgy title. Then I look up and see that I am in the Sociology section. Science fiction has been moved the second floor. Apparently the whole store has been reorganized.

| Farmhouse Kitchen |
Sorry for the bad picture. I'm always on the lookout for good places to eat and I come across Farmhouse Kitchen. That sounds great, but then I look at the poster in the window and realize it's a Thai restaurant. I know some people really like Thai food, but I ain't one of 'em. I've been to Thai places a few times but never had anything I enjoyed. Last time I was in a Thai place I asked for very mild spice and the dish I got was hotter than blue blazes. I don't know if this was their version of mild or whether something got lost in translation. Makes no difference, no Thai for me.
