If you’re going to call me a moron - you’re telling me something I already know. Gobshite. Opinions expressed are not my own. #rctid #baonpdx #celticfc #coybig #coygig #AnyoneButEngland

Probably silly question to ask but is there anything preventing Memorial coliseum from becoming a public ice skating rink? Probably have to close it for Winterhawks practices and games but could provide an easy immediate solution while getting more use out of the old gal.

Generations of figure skaters grew up on the mall’s ice, the only public rink within city limits. Now they’re looking for what’s next.

The morning after, looking at the numbers, two things are crystal clear. 1. The electorate on the whole is extremely pissed off. 2. People in the DNC are at severe risk of making the same mistake as UK Labour - confusing an anti incumbent wave of angry voters as a mandate of an incoherent agenda.

Again, everyone is underestimating how long, exhaustive, expensive, & difficult it is going to be to dig ourselves out of the moral, political, & financial hell Trump & his acolytes have wrought on this country. Anyone saying it is a quick one or two election cycle fix is lying to you.

The primaries aside, look at GOP amendments & ballot measure that have failed dramatically tonight in red states. If the Democratic Party is looking for a central election platform and issues to develop messages from - there it is on a silver platter.

In happy news for Jazz nerds like me - they are reissuing Freddie Hubbard’s masterpiece ‘Red Clay’ later this month. Thank heavens because a half decent to good copy on Discogs and other LP sites are going for more than $120…

You know what would be a really popular platform for the Democratic Party? Strip technology companies of much of the liability protections they’ve engineered for themselves the last 40 years. First & foremost, ban binding arbitration as part of a EULA agreements. Long past due.
