Please tell me you're going to Powell's!!! I love that place! I wish I did live in Portland. For many, many, many reasons. One because I want to be closer to Powell's and two because I want to meet you. :)

My TV boyfriend was Jim Halpert.

Boy, you sure are letting that gay freak flag fly high and wild today, measuring stick ;).

My perfect guy is: Peter Petrelli
Your man has amazing powers, but not just things like flying and telekinesis. He is sensitive and compassionate; he's idealistic to a fault. He can be a tad gullble, but he will do anything for you. He'll even take a bullet for you. good thing he's also self healing.

Hrm, I'm not sure that's my kind of man, either.

Gina... Oh yes! Always a stop at Powells when in Portland!

Chag... Lucky bastard! Wanna trade boyfriends?

Hilly Sue... Hey, I'm out and proud with my 20% gayness!

Omigod! I'm 43% gay!

I am very sad to hear that about the Hello Kitty gummies. :(
But--I too am very happy about the casting of Robert Downey Jr. in Iron Man, and even though I know absolutely nothing about the comic it looks FREAKING AWESOME!

Wow...I'm finding your optical illusion about 110% more interesting than the Oscars right now!

My TV boyfriend is Jim Halpert too.

The picture thing is weird. At first I thought I was just retarded because it didn't work in a feedreader, though....

That optical illusion was very cool. And I cannot wait for Iron Man, either.

Hilly Sue... You go with your fine gay self, girl!

Diane... Iron Man is one of those comic book characters that's just outside the mainstream, so the writers and artists always seem to have a bit more creative leeway in writing him. Because of that, he is by far one of the most interesting heroes at Marvel, which is why I like him so much.

Tracy... Yeah, but that's not so difficult to do. The Oscars have been yawn-inducing boring for years. :-(

Robin... WAAAAHHH! WHY CAN'T I HAS ME THE JIM HALPERT?!?

Lexi... Ooh! Thanks for the heads-up! I'll add that to my entry so other people don't get frustrated.

Avitable... I hope neither of us are disappointed. :-)

When I stared at Avitable's avatar for thirty seconds, I turned gay in black and white!

So far, I think they seem to be doing everything right. Even if only half of what I hear is true, I'm going to love it.

I'm an Oscar freak and watch the show each year, no matter how dumb it gets. Jon Stewart was pretty funny.

As for movies to see, I really liked "Michael Clayton" and "No Country For Old Men" and was very happy to see Marion Cotillard win for Best Actress.

And of course, "Ratatouille" winning the best animated pic was nice.

Huh. I'm 50% gay. My TV boyfriend is Matt Saracen of whom I am unfamiliar.

The picture thingy is cool! :D

I got Jim, too. Sorry Dave!

But, if it's any cosolation...it appears he REALLY gets around. :(

And, I was kind-of hoping for Lee Pace.

Raaaawr!

Now, you have to see "La môme" with Marion Cotillard. ;)

Mannnn... I got Chuck, too.

Um, thanks for reminding me about my taxes. I had conveniently and intentionally forgot about it because it's such a pain in the ass due to being self-employed...

There are surprising dead animal products in so many foods you wouldn't expect them in. My son decided he wanted to be vegan years ago, and Lucky Charms ended up being off limits for him.

That picture optical illusion is AMAZING!

So, my feed reader was down all day yesterday.....and it's Monday now. I'm late! (Maybe I'm pregnant.) And 20% gay? Are you sure it's not, like, 19% or 21 or 22%? I mean, I think that I may be a few percentage points of straight...but it's definitely up for debate. And you know, we'll probably be able to see you on Saturday. Be in touch.

Just as important as visiting Powell's is visiting VooDoo Doughnuts, because the magic is in the hole! And it's open all the time! When I need a maple bar with bacon on it at 3 in the morning, I just pop over to my local kooky doughnut shop! Enjoy!

Bogup... That makes rainbow pride a little difficult for you, I'd imagine?

Avitable... Once they cast Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark, the rest was just special effects gravy to me. Is there anybody more perfect for the part? I am counting on this movie to kick copious amounts of ass!

Willy... "No Country for Old Men" didn't sound the least bit interesting to me... even with the Coen Bros. in charge. I've already seen Erin Brockovich! :-)

KG... A Google search shows he's from "Friday Night Lights." I don't watch that either.

Adena... If you like Lee Pace, check out "Wonderfalls" on DVD. One of my all-time favorite television series!

Laurence... Yes, I absolutely want to see "La môme!" It seems to be a depressing film though...

Kapgar... We suck at finding boyfriends!

Abs... Taxes blow. It seems stupid that they can't figure out how to just automate all this shit so you don't have to spend time getting all the crap figured out. Our tax code needs drastic updating.

Tori... Lucky Charms contain marshmallows which are made with dead animals, yes. Though there are some vegetarian alternatives to that cereal which have veggie-safe marshmallows!

Lewis... Hey, I'm just reporting the number they gave me!

Talena... Yes... life in Portland is not complete until you've had a voodoo doll donut with a Capn' Crunch donut on the side!

I've never heard of Waitress. But someone recommended it to me in my Movie Night contest.

Seeing you liked it AND Juno (looooove Juno), I might have to check it out.

Wow, I really liked that optical illusion! Oh, and my "TV Boyfriend" would be Jim Halpert from The Office.

Ack, I got Chuck, too. Like you, I think the show started out with such promise, but now it's really annoying. A little character GROWTH would serve the show well.

Miss Britt... "Waitress" is a wholly depressing film with undertones of humor and hope running throughout. But that ending... yeah... the ending is what elevates this film to absolute greatness. The writer/director resisted the urge to slap on an unrealistic dumbass "Hollywood ending" and instead gave us something so real that it's a joy to watch. Totally worth your time. I need to re-do my top 100 films of all time, because "Waitress" and "Juno" have totally cracked into that bitch of a list! :-)

Bombshell... Damn! What's a guy gotta do to land himself a Jim Halpert?? You ladies need to spill... :-D

Karl... SEE WHAT I MEAN, BOMBSHELL? I totally agree with you on this Karl. Every other character is really well-done, but Chuck himself is annoying as hell, and ruins his own show. It's okay to keep him nerdy... but if he stays a bumbling whiny bitch, I'm deleting it from my TiVo record list.

Portlandia, huh? Saturday? Yeah, I think I can make that. ;)

This Portland thing couldn't be timed better. I head for Italy in two weeks and I am ALL OUT OF READING MATERIAL. You and Vahid need to stock me up again.

That color picture thing is AWESOME*

* stare at a color filter for 30 seconds. then come back to this comment, but look a few lines down. See how the comment changed to be more colorful?

That color picture thing is BADASS!
