Three things I like about living here. - 6/8/2008

First, EVERYTHING is close and conveniently located. Second, there is NO sales tax, so a $1.99 burger is $1.99. You don't have to figure out the tax on anything. Third, you are not ALLOWED to pump your own gasoline--if you can afford it! They do it for you and your hands don't smell of gas all afternoon. These are the top 3 things I like about living in Oregon.[read more...]
