So, did you produce content when you were in Portland. It'd be a great place for a goth content producer to locate. Where are you now?
And you're right about Powell's: it's the "le Louvre" of bookstores. NYC has some great offbeat and specialized bookstores, and some large ones, too, but none of them are as vast as Powell's.

I only spent one summer in Portland, and all I remember was that it wasn't as damn hot as New Hampshire, where I grew up. When it gets hot in New England, it gets *muggy*. Bleh.
I wasn't in this business yet when I was in Portland. It would have been a lot easier if I had been... Amazing girls there if you're looking for alternative looks. I'm in an industrial city in Northern England now. Same basic climate as PDX, fewer goth babes.
I still reminisc about Powell's to people, now. I used to love getting lost in there.
So much better than Amazon, even though I had to catch a bus.
