Hi everyone! I hope this question hasn't been asked a million times since I haven't watched this community in a while but:
I am planning on getting my first tattoo very soon and looking for the absolute best artist and shop in town. I have done a bunch of research but I would really like some personal opinions & experiences. Thank you so much!

cell phone nonsense
okay folks - i know it's been asked before (a million times over), but i trust random people who don't work for cell phone companies much more than sales people aiming for a bigger bonus.

SO - my husband and i are in the market to upgrade our cellphones. not totally looking for a huge amount of the extras - we don't text, surf the web, etc. - while a spiffy camera and the mp3 playing capabilities are nice, they aren't necessary. we have those gadgets already.

so far, we're kinda leaning towards a samsung sync (not the best call quality?), a samsung d807(seems like the call volume is low, even when turned up all the way, though), or a motorola razr v3xx(totally not sure about this one). we have cingular service, if that makes much difference.

out of those, which is likely to be the most reliable? are there any others we should look at?

fill me with knowledge, oh wise ones. please? :)

Its Thursday
The pipe organ at Oaks Park, in the last few weeks, has had all its broken notes fixed, and been tuned. It sounds awesome. Come on down and listen to Keith play it, and do some roller skating with me. 8:00 to 10:30 and its only 5.25. A buck more if you need to rent skates.
Did you know that Portland Oregon is the home to the only working pipe organ in a roller rink in the entire United States?
Enjoy your day.

Shoe stores with a bit more style
This weekend I'm going shopping for a lot of new duds. As I rarely go on such shopping excursions, and my knowledge of retail locations is thankfully sparse, I ask you for help. What are some good close-in locations for the purchase of awesome shoes? I remember seeing some rather unique selections at that place next to Backspace downtown. You guys have any more recommendations for stores with awesoe shoes?

Puzzle: Blondes
It's Thursday. This means that the answers to Tuesday's puzzle have been un-screened and we have a new puzzle:

( The Two Blondes )

EDIT: Also, since it's 3/15, it's The Ides of March. Beware.

My birthday is coming up in just over a week, and while I was downtown yesterday I noticed that the Todai Seafood Buffet is advertising a free dinner on your birthday. Has anyone tried it? Do they have any kind of strange restrictions? Is the restaurant any good? Having spent the first 30 years of my life in a landlocked state, I'm wary of a seafood buffet. I'm envisioning Chuck-A-Rama with fish.

I had been planning on Ethiopian for my birthday dinner, but I'm rethinking that if I can eat free.

Go look
If you look south into that beautiful blue sky, you can see the tinyest sliver of the moon. Thats right, the moon cant even help enjoy this day.

Doctor's advice

I got in a fight with this guy in a bar about a week ago and he hit me in the jaw really hard and it STILL burns when I pee. 

Has anyone else had this happen?

I want to organize a luncheon potluck/banner making get together at overlook park before the protest on Sunday, and then walk downtown to the south park blocks as a group. Would anyone else be interested in attending? I don't want to plan something and have no one show.
