I need a truck.
I plan to buy a small pickup truck in the next couple of months. I'm still driving my first car so I know Jack Sh!t about buying a vehicle, but the 89 Olds has had more fun than anything with four cylinders can stand and it's time to move on.

So.

Tell me about used car dealerships in this town. Who sucks? Who doesn't suck? Who screwed you and how bad? Who sold you a decent vehicle for an honest price? If I were your girlfriend / roommate / best friend / little sister, what would you tell me?

Note: I'm not in a position to buy right now, but I will be in a few weeks. I will also be unloading a beat-up 89 Olds but not, I repeat, not until I have something else arrange. (And I have to find where I put the title to it anyway.) This is not a buy-sell-trade offer, this is a request for information about local car dealerships. If you want to make a buy-sell-trade offer, email me privately.

Thanks!

Somebody, I need a happy thought for the day
Quick, somebody give me some happy thoughts for the day. I made the mistake of firing up news, only to read about iraq, went to another one, only to read about global warming. A 3rd? Social Security Finance wows...

Somebody PLEASEEEE give me a url for something non-depressing. Thanks!

Two part question
1) What are some other PDX entertainment/restaurant review sites other than CitySearch?

2) Best Korean in greater PDX? I'm talking chap chae, ja jang myun, bi bim bap, the whole nine. Where? I tried the joint on Powell near 82nd and was unimpressed.

current state: hungry

Good late morning PDX!
I was wondering if anyone knew where my boyfriend and I could take ballroom dancing lessons. I need something pretty reasonably priced and someplace with good competent instructors and such. Thanks!

for the bored bakers out there..
Recipe idea

so i have mass amounts of Wheat Chex, Life and Cheerios from WIC (seriously we probalby have 2 boxes of each)

so i thought of a twist on the typical Chex Party Mix.... because i didn't have all the spices/pretzels for it...

so this is my recipe

( Sweet Chex Mix )
anyways, i thought this was a good snack alternative/use for WIC cereals...

now i just gotta figure out what to do with the 6 lbs of cheese in my fridge hehehe...

A Question for D-Portlanders
Has anyone had any problems with Standard Appliances? I am asking due to the fact that my brother bought two appliances from them and was told that they do not deliver to the burgs on Tuesdays and Thursdays after waiting one week.They promised him that they would deliver last Tuesday. However, they called back and told him the delivery policy last night.

My brother wanted to surprise his wife with an early anniversary gift of a washer and dryer.Now, they state that they will deliver this Monday when they were told she will be home.

Must. Eat. Fried. Chicken. NOW!
I work downtown and I'm sick of burritos, Thai food, and pizza for lunch. Does anyone know where I can get fried chicken? Also, does anyone know who I need to talk to about opening a Popeye's across the street from the Standard Insurance Building?

Thank-yee.
