If you have a few minutes this is scary, entertaining, enlightening, and a few more adjectives

In a place known for lush green spaces, the experience of large trees collapsing on such a massive scale has led to a new anxiety in Oregon.

wont allow to read because i use adblockers

Basically the tree huggers in Portland are pissed at the trees because they are falling on their houses and the trees went from being their cherished icon to a force for evil and should be cut down

Thats the 7 cent version

Just funny how people love or hate something until they are forced to interact with reality and their perception flips 180 degrees

In tree-hugging Pacific Northwest, what happens when one of the most powerful symbols of our collective identity hurts us?

The experience of large trees collapsing on such a massive scale across Portland and the region during the January storm has led to a new anxiety about our coexistence with the PNW's cherished emblem.

What is retail price on a new steering wheel with all the bells and whistles ?

About $270.
But, keep in mind that this is a current recall part.

Back in the early 2000's we had issues with the window regulator cables breaking in the trucks. At that time, many were under warranty. The regulator with the motor was about $75.
After a bit of time, and they started to cycle out of warranty, the regulator with no motor went up to about $175.
Then it jumped up to about $250.
Then it was again serviced with the motor for about $375.
Last time I priced one I think they were in the $400 range.
One way or another, the end consumers pay for the warranty, the manufacturers do not.

How much airplay would a song about someone peeing in her butt really get? I'm thinking it wouldn't be a mainstream hit..

lol thats a full time job lol

I can envision someone on YouTube making a fortune in Portland posting videos of jackass homeowners with $199 chainsaws and extension ladders trying to clear out the killer trees cause God forbid you pay a pro

Wasn't @sawmikaze wanting to relocate out west a week or two back?
