Hey ya'all! I've got 3 tickets to Duran Duran on 3/10 that I reallllly need to get rid of...


I bought the tix at $84 (I know, I know, $84 bucks to see Duran Duran!? But me loves the 80s.), but I'll take the best reasonable offer.  Preferably, you know, $50+.  Your choices are:


3 floor seats or 3 in Section 112 (seats 7-9).


Comment if you're interested!



current tunes: Keane - "Emily"

sweet jesus, i leave for work and people FREAK out while i'm gone...

i don't know WHY i have to put a disclaimer to this but here goes:

i basically kind of crossposted that post to my friends/fellow communities.. i know there's a lot of girls out there like me who have families or post pictures of themselves and trust in the inherent semi-goodness of teh internets... and it was only meant as a "heads up, there's a lame-o" type post not a "OMG IT'S THE FUCKING END OF THE WORLD WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE" type thing

apparantly that's "vapid" of me though. whatev. please, feel free to add your judgement, Teh Internets knows me so well, it seems.

High school teacher?
Howdy all. My name's Matthew, and I'll be moving to Portland this summer. I was thinking about job options, and I was wondering: do any of you know what it takes to become a teacher in the state of Oregon? I'm thinking teaching high school might not be such a bad way to pay the bills, but I have no idea if it's feasible or not.

Any information you have would be appreciated. Thanks!

I’m going to Duran Duran on Thursday, I’ve never been to the Rose Garden before and am wondering if it would be best to take the MAX or drive? Is parking free at the Rose Garden?

We had a Comcast tech come out yesterday to hook up our apartment with cable internet. We have two computers in our apartment and we're having difficulty connecting to the internet with our router. We didn't have the router or the second computer at the time of installation so my girlfriends computer was the original computer hooked up. The internet works on her computer currently. How do we authorize the router? We called up Comcast and they were not willing to help us because they said "we do not support such things as routers." Right. Can someone give us some advice with what to do? Thanks.

Thanks for your comments, but we figured out how to get around it. We just needed to reset the router!

Dear DamnPortlanders Geeks...

I have a Gamecube that needs repair. Yes, the infamous 'Disc Read Error'. I believe the problem is either a misaligned disc drive, a broken optic, or something else entirely.

So I have a few questions.

- What's the best way to open a Gamecube, without purchasing their uber unique screwdriver? I've tried melting the end of a Bic pen and molding it to the key, and that doesn't seem to work, as the plastic strips too easily.

- Where would I be able to purchase replacement parts, or get it repaired, in Portland? I don't want to have to order parts, and if I can't repair it, I'd like to know where I can go without having to send it in.

- And last, does anyone have experience with this problem? Suggestions? Solutions that worked for you?

Merci.

Hi all! I am currently living in SE, near Stark/102nd, and looking for a farmers market. Does anyone know where and when the nearest one might be? I'm willing to drive to get to it, but i'm looking for east side if possible. Thanks!

Does anyone know of a free doctor's clinic for people who don't have health insurance? My brother has no health insurance, but there is something wrong with him and he needs to get a check up or something. Thanks,

Anyone catch Subterranean on MTV2 tonight? There was a video, all b/w that was filmed around various parts of town (Blue Moon, Hotcake House, etc.). The drummer was wearing a Tillamook shirt. But my channel-changing habits caused me to miss who it was. Very sweet little song. Anyone know what band this is?
