Where can I get a payroll check cashed without paying like 15%?

I heard safeway does it, but I cant find any conclusive information online right now. I've tried the 7-11 machine 20 times tonight and it keeps saying it can't read my check.

grrrr.

Drive time to Wilsonville?
So this summer I have an internship in Wilsonville, and I was wondering if anyone knows how long it takes to get there/back during rush hour? I'd be leaving from Portland State (getting on I-5 from before the sixth avenue exit), taking I-5 south to exit 286 toward Stafford/N. Wilsonville. I need to get there before 8:00am. Any idea when I should leave?

The Nightingale and the Rose
In the spirit of sad love stories, here is one of my very favorites: The Nightingale and the Rose

It's non-copyright, so I am posting the whole thing.

Wish you all a sweet Valentine's Day.

( "One red rose is all I want," cried the Nightingale, "only one red rose! Is there no way by which I can get it?" "There is a way," answered the Tree; "but it is so terrible that I dare not tell it to you." )

Tax Advice
Can anyone recommend a tax person/accountant?

I need some tax advice regading a very complex situation. I'm NOT looking for a seasonal H&R Block college student.

Any recommendations for specific individuals/firms?

Thanks so much.

In sorting through my stuff I have discovered I have lots of Legos. I have two large sets of "Fright Knights" legos with scary skeletons and suchlike that have been opened and played with, but all the stuff should still be there. I also have some Harry Potter Legos that have never been opened.
Does anyone know of a local children's hosptial or like organization that would appriciate these, or would they just want unopened and less-scary type stuff?

current state: hopeful

Eggplants in the Cemetery
Any idea why there would be eggplants in the Lone Fir Cemetery? I walk by there every morning along 26th Ave on the way to catch my bus, and I often see the usual rubbish on the sidewalk or inside the fence (including an unused condom yesterday, still rolled up and ready for love), but this morning I saw about a dozen of the swollen purple veggies scattered about. And I've been mightily perplexed all day thinking about it. My girlfriend suggested maybe it had something to do with the Lunar New Year (there are many Chinese-Americans buried in Lone Fir), but I couldn't discover anything on the interweb.

It could be as banal as: Someone had a crate of ready-to-rot eggplants and wanted to dump them. But my imagination wants to believe something more wacky. Cthulhu worshipers or John Barth enthusiasts or something.

Anyone?
