anotherportlandblog at gmail dot com another portland blog friday april 22 2011 moving along this is my last post on another portland blog it s been swell over the course of the past seven years i ve penned over 2 000 posts here however it s become apparent that my focus has shifted during the past year this blog is no longer about portland but rather the whole dang world so to reflect that i ve decided to start an all new blog rather than stick with blogger com s increasingly annoying and archaic software i ve opted to give tumblr a shot if you d like to continue reading about my oddball travels both in portland and abroad follow me on over to anotherworldblog com a nifty play on words no ok well i thought was clever as the finish say ciao brandon labels the end posted by brandon 9 05

the term an american original well paul s a netherlands original after a dinner of fish and homemade fries at the flat he shares with his fiancée in amsterdam he presented my gal pal marie and i with a crystal candy dish filled with dried worms they came in two flavors original and nacho and looked like the meal worms i used to feed the pet turtle i had back in high school the nacho ones weren t half bad after chatting for a bit paul asked me if i wanted to take a spin around the city in his twike these two person human electric hybrid vehicles are relatively rare but have a devoted following a mere 850 have been sold since the twike 1 debuted at the 1986 world expo mostly in germany and switzerland paul has had his for a few years now and has retrofitted it with a few interesting modifications blue neon lights line the inside and the cargo area is set up for a small refrigerator paul used it to transport fresh herring from the netherlands during a road trip to scandinavia his twike also has a custom paint job at first glance i thought paul was shooting for the delorean from back to the future upon closer inspection i realized that the twike was all done up like a jet from top gun complete with a pair of faux afterburners on the back i jumped in the passenger seat and we set off into the night on electric backup the average twike can run for a few hours and is capable of carrying travelers between 45 and 90 miles depending on the type of battery installed if the driver and or passenger are willing to pedal however the vehicle can journey much further in amsterdam they re also street legal paul manuvered the twike onto a busy boulevard and we buzzed through the jordaan as pedestrians looked and pointed at almost every intersection someone broke out a cellphone or a camera to snap a photo as we waited for a tram to pass a kid on a sidewalk geeked out as if he had just spotted santa claus in the flesh paul swung onto a quiet street and turned off the battery i had asked him how tough it was to fuel the vehicle on pedal power alone we gave it a shot and it was like trying to haul a mountain bike up a san fransisco hill after the test paul flipped a switch on the dashboard are you ready to take this puppy onto the freeway he asked the next thing i knew we were blasting alongside semi trucks and suvs the top speed of paul s twike was 55 mph but it can go faster at a full gallop i figured we d get blown off the pavement but the vehicle s aero dynamic curves made for a smooth ride even at a fast clip the limited mileage on the average twike renders them impractical as anything but a commuter vehicle even the newer models require two hours to charge on a dead battery they also cost a pretty penny a new model will run you somewhere in the neighborhood of 40 000 us that said they re a hell of a lot of fun labels bicycles posted by brandon 4 18 pm 0 comments tuesday march 15 2011 europe in three minutes or less 6 birds windmills love labels europe in

taken sometime in the 70s the gent in the socks a rather daring public masturbater who was caught in the act on what was hopefully for him a warm day in downtown portland cory s mother recently found this shot in her attic it s definitely something that belongs in a family photo album labels the law posted by brandon 8 10 am 0 comments tuesday february 22 2011 jerkwads at live shows an international epidemic i ve been there before and so have you no doubt you re at a show perhaps even up front a few feet from the band when two people next to you decide to hold a conversation they re completely oblivious to the music and despite the fact that they re shouting to be heard are behaving as if they re passing time in a cafe their motivations are unknown and their reasoning is oblique where are they there why did they pay for a ticket and all the annoying fees that go along with it just to ignore the performance do they really really need to bitch about their boss rightthatbloodyminute either i m a magnet for these people or they re far more prevalent than i ve previously surmised these chatterboxes have tarnished plenty of nights at the crystal ballroom and the roseland i ve stopped going to acoustic shows entirely there s just no point is this just a portland phenomenon is there something about the city s venues that work like the blarney stone my conclusion nope nope and more nope this strange behavior is also a common occurrence over here in the netherlands the crowd at a september josh ritter show at the paradiso in amsterdam was well behaved but a group of dutch guys were so obnoxious during an acoustic portion of delorean s set in haarlem earlier this month that the lead singer cut it short tift merritt a singer songwriter who opened for iron and wine last tuesday in amsterdam became visibly riled by talkers during her set she complained to samuel beam backstage afterwards during iron and wine s performance he demanded that the crowd apologize to her all together now beam disdainfully announced sorry tift the audience begrudgingly went along with this that s not to say that crap behavior at shows is limited to talkers there s also people who spill beer all over the place and those who film everything on their iphone with the screen as bright as possible oh and there s my personal favorite sweat soaked overly affectionate stoned couples who dance salaciously while obliviously bumping into everyone around them which of these categories do i fall into i ll give you three guesses here s a video from iron and wine s stint please enjoy labels europe music posted by brandon 12 01 pm 0 comments sunday february 20 2011 europe in three minutes or less 3 a dutch market labels europe in three minutes or less
