Cats Oh Hello, Cat Friday!
Posted by on Fri, Jun 20 at 3:12 PM
Yesterday I got a phone call from Erik, who works in the next room. He said, “You need to come in here immediately.” I’m not in the habit of taking orders from men who collect action figures, but it sounded important and so I went and looked out his window and OMG kittens!!
Somehow every chick in the office heard about this within minutes and descended on the kittens. A girlgasm of staggering intensity (and decibel-level) ensued. It was really remarkable.
Speaking of remarkable, Matt Davis sent me this link. Less remarkable than the link itself is the fact that Matt “Cute Things Threaten My Masculinity” Davis sent it to me. It’s an olive branch, people. Take it.
Comments
Also, for the record, I am exceptionally masculine.

Neil DiamondAfter canceling his September performance in Portland, Neil Diamond is back and ready to blow us out of our seats! Fine, maybe he won’t “blow us,” but I bet he’ll come to the stage locked and loaded with hits such as “Cherry, Cherry,” “Sweet Caroline,” and “I’m a Believer.” And does anybody remember “Heartlight”? I do! WSH Rose Garden, 1 Center Court St., $55-120, 8:00 PM |

Portland Bicycle Lawyer Network
Don't settle for someone trying to make money off bicyclists.
Talk to a real Portland bicycle lawyer; not all Portland lawyers are real bicycle lawyers and they won't give you the extra passion that we feel makes a big difference when you do find a real Portland bicycle lawyer.

Erik wants me to note that he does not COLLECT action figures. He just has several of them. On his desk. In poses. But he doesn't collect them. There's a difference.
