Tri-Met is awsome, I love it. I wish that all the buses were the frequent ones so it has a 15 min wait instead of a 30 min wait though. The MAX comes every 10 min or so (the MAX is a light rail train type thing).
On my way home the driver of the bus I was riding was new and was training. It was fun to see new people drive the bus.
It kind of got me thinking about the Portland Public Schools. I mean, I’m not enrolled anymore but I thing Portland is a great place, and if they don’t invest in these kids, they’re going to have an even larger problem.
I see it as a downward spiral right now. The majority of the Oregonians don’t want to pay more taxes for school, (because they’re fucking lazy, fat, and complain like little kids). School’s don’t get the funding they need, and then the kids who grew up in an environment that didn’t educate that well are uneducated. And then those adults now don’t want to pay taxes, etc.
The way I see it, it’s either take a hit now, or a bigger one later. Someone’s gotta step in, even if it’s the hard thing to do.
I'm not finished with the design of my blog quite yet, please hold on while I fix the comments, archives, and search templates.

For the askismet api you have to register at WordPress.com and get the api key there. I don’t think you can delete the blog you have created there either or else the api will stop working.
