I love that song! One of my favorite bits from that show was the adult hide and go seek league.

That's from a TV show? I didn't know. Oh, well, I think it's non-explicit enough that my blog's ad-free status isn't compromised.

(Actually piercings and tattoos gross me out, but the rest of it is cool.)

Infodell ... Yes, it's from a tele programme, it was the opening theme song for the series actually, that's what I was pointing out in a posting on it., the show of course called "Portlandia" (cable). I recall you saying that you havent seen tele in many year's, but I believe you can catch it online, I would go to the IFC (Inde Film Channel) for info ....

BTW I agree with Andy on the "Adult Hide & Seek" episode : )

Love it! If I were young, I'd move there in a Boston minute! Who's the guy doing the video. He looks so familiar, but I can't come up with his name.

I'm a Portlander in spirit! Even if I'm not pierced. I do put a red clown nose on during the week, however.

I'm no fan of piercings, believe me! As for who the guy is, I don't know either -- I guess he's in TV, but I don't watch any more.

Our town's not quite as cool as the video makes out, but there's definitely a spirit to the place.

Please be on-topic and read the comments policy. Spam, trolls, and fight-pickers will be deleted. If you don't have a Blogspot account and aren't sure how to comment, please see here. Fair warning -- I reject all comments containing any of the following:

1. Support for transgenderism
2. Negativity about Brexit
3. Support for a military draft or compulsory national service

I am not obligated to provide a platform for views I find morally abhorrent. And obviously I'm going to delete anything which is just quoting what an "AI" said. I want to hear from you, not from the always-wrong hallucination machine.

No comments advocating violence against any specific identifiable individual, even jokingly.

Please be considerate -- no political or politics-tinged comments on non-political posts, and no performative cynicism. Finally, please remember that this is a personal blog whose main purpose is to encourage contact from people with similar interests and world-views to mine. I really don't much care for arguing and debating; if arguing and debating is what you want, there are plenty of other places on the internet which welcome that.

From now until the finalization of the election results, no comments claiming the Republicans (or Democrats) will or can "steal" the election. It's pointless to engage with such stuff, and it promotes defeatism, which makes people less likely to vote or otherwise be politically active.
