*sigh* I have yet to have real ramen in a restaurant. Just last weekend I told the hubby we need to find a ramen restaurant and go there... - Cheryl Jones

Yes you do...and now I'm off to Toshi's. - Alex Scoble

Toshi's is good stuff if you don't mind the slow service. They are always understaffed. Two waitpersons doesn't cut it for them apparently. I'd say it's worth the slow service, but your mileage may vary. - Alex Scoble

They're near this apartment I'm looking at. It was like walking into a Twilight Zone episode. The chairs are school desks, there's tributes to Kenny Rogers everywhere, the donuts have cereal as toppings, and the music is like the worst music imaginable. Also, it's painted magenta. - Mark Trapp

What do you think they do for those three hours they aren't open? - Michelle Marie Miller

I'm not sure I want to know. Maybe that's when Kenny Rogers and Isaac Hayes come to sprinkle their magic donut magic in the holes. - Mark Trapp

Hey a lot of thought went into making those holes... - Mark Forman

http://www.daveandbusters.com/ Sorry, I forgot the apostrophe, Matthew, ya anal dude you. - Alex Scoble

LOL, Actually, you're inviting the actual dudes Dave and Buster, so no "S" at all - Matthew DeVries

No, Dave and Buster's is a place and a brand...I was referring to the brand name. I wish that Dave and Buster's would open up a Dave and Buster's in the PDX area. - Alex Scoble from IM

Matthew, actually Alex is inviting Dave and some unidentified item belonging to Buster. - John E. Bredehoft

ROFL - Alex Scoble

The basketball shooting gsme is addicting - Rodfather

I <3 that place - Shevonne

There's a bench warrant for Dave in Portland though - is it cool if just Buster opens up something for ya? - Matthew DeVries

Buster will have problems opening up a restaurant with his name. There is the BBQ joint chain already. - Joe Pierce

He'll just bring the "and" with him too - Matthew DeVries

He'll need a new partner..how about Alex and Buster's? - Joe Pierce

Dude, that would be awesome! - Alex Scoble from IM

We've got one in Indy. Guess we ought to check it out... - Kamilah Gill

Sorry, I had to delete it. I was trying to be funny and left out a few words. LMAO I couldn't even fix it because I realized I had no idea what I was even trying to say after that. - Anika Malone

ROFL - Alex Scoble

No lemon law for politicians. Look at our last president, Nixon, Grant, and... oh jeez, never mind. I could be at this all night. :) - Dan Messer

Well there oughta be, Dan...and yeah, Derrick...He's going to make it that much harder for other gay politicians to succeed in getting elected to major offices. Not cool...A complete lamer. - Alex Scoble

If he wasn't gay, he would have been thrown out of office over that affair with a young intern thing. It's just like with Obama...can't have any real recriminations because he's the first openly gay mayor of a major city. - Dawn

@Dawn - yeah, just like Obama. *groan* - Anthony Citrano

The last thing I want is Sam Adams gone from City Hall. He's too entwined in how we get things done in this city. I never liked Vera but he spent 12 years in her administration and he knows which way the wind blows. If we end up with someone diametrical opposed to the culture that has been nurtured in that office, I'm afraid we'll lose our way and squander what we've developed over that... more... - Christopher Harley

No wonder the people who would really do the best job in government stay out of politics - they don't want their personal lives to be subject to this level of scrutiny and righteous indignation. The more you expect your elected representatives to be flawless, the more you are going to be disappointed by the fact that they're not. - Chris

I'm not shooting for flawless, I'm shooting for merely responsible and dependable. - Alex Scoble from IM

I'm impressed Alex - Looks like at least one geek got a workout today!! :) - JimsMarketingBlog

Which is before and which is after? o_O (j/k ;) - Jemm

Looks like you have a fescue, which means it's actually best kept at about 3 inches and not mowed as frequently as other types. Less mowing = win. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

yeah i keep mine at 4". do we have a lawn and garden room? - Carlos Ayala

Is that the entire yard? Looks like just the right size to maximize the enjoyment of cutting the grass without it being a chore. At my last house, we had a yard with grass, but it was too small to maneuver the lawnmower around well, and it was more of a chore than enjoyment. - Andy Bakun

That's the entire front yard just about, Andy. Back yard is about the same size. - Alex Scoble

If I didn't mow mine each week I would grow a jungle. - Bob Blunk

Nice to watch the grass grow! - Jane C Woods

I have no grass. Area around house is all groundcover stuff, some ornamental grass and mulch. I miss walking with bare feet over freshly cut lawn but not enough to plant some. I had to do all inside and outside work at old house and I hated mowing. - jlt-Janet

dude....cmon......3 weeks between mowing? my dad used to make me mow the lawn every 2 hours..... - Chris Greene

lazy f%$! - Chris Greene

sorry, two weeks. you're still a lazy f%# because i happen to know that this weekend you were inside the house playing video games like a dink. - Chris Greene

Says the guy who lives in a condo. - Alex Scoble

a condo with a very very very clean porch - Chris Greene

:P - Chris Greene

Yeah, said porch is about the size of a postage stamp. - Alex Scoble

What kind of grass is that? - Brent - Mugwumps R Us

No offense but I hate you all, i think our grass has grown 4 inches in 6 years. The weeds on the other hand, 4inches an hour - Steve C

Brent, according to Tina, it's a fescue. - Alex Scoble

There is an Apple beach ball in the credits though i read somehere. Did you see it? - Simon Wicks

I hope to see it tomorrow. - CW™

We saw it again tonight. Did you get the short feature Partly Cloudy before it? We did tonight, but last week when we saw it the first time, there was no short feature. - Joey Gibson

Alex, is the 3D version worth it? Is it any different? I have never watched a 3D movie and I'm skeptical. - Manuel Mas

Yeah, Joey, we saw Partly Cloudy...cute short. The 3D technology is very good, is it worth it? It adds a coolness factor, but I'm not sure it's worth 40-50% extra per ticket. - Alex Scoble

If they show the short in the non-3D version, I'd say it's not worth really it. It wasn't as cool as the 3-D in Coraline. - Alix Whitmire ☂

Alix, everything was in 3D, even the previews. - Alex Scoble

No, I know. :) Joey said he didn't see the short the first time, I thought maybe they weren't showing the short at the non-3-D shows. The short, IMO, is worth the 3-D ticket price, but the 3-D itself was not. :D - Alix Whitmire ☂

We saw it in 3D both times, at the same theater, but the first time we didn't get the short. We *did* get the Toy Story 3 trailer the first time and not the second, but since that's available online, I would rather have had the short. Seems like by not showing it in all theaters, they're ripping some people off. - Joey Gibson

Joey, that's awful. I always really look forward to the shorts, and this one was especially awesome. - Alix Whitmire ☂

Right there with you on that, Dawn. - Alex Scoble

The weather sure has been lovely! - Dawn

Excuse my ignorance but PDXers? - Johnny Worthington

Heh, Johnny. PDX is the airport designation for the Portland International Airport. So PDX metro area is the area surrounding portland. - Alex Scoble

Places, Vendors, Caterers, etc.... - Alex C. Williams

Indoor or outdoor? Depending on your venue/style, I know a photographer (looks at self...) - Aaron B. Hockley

Hopefully outdoor with a good view. That is a camera in your twavatar, isn't it? - Alex C. Williams from Alert Thingy

My wedding in Sept - Place: Viewpoint Inn, Photos: David Barss, DJ: Maushole Productions, Cake: Beaverton Bakery, Video: Shaka Brah. Hope that helps... - Kevin

We're visiting the viewpoint inn this weekend, looks pretty amazing. - Alex C. Williams
