Silicon Valley refugees and people complaining about Bay Area prices, please note that this is 100% true. Portland will be completely wiped out within the next couple years by a giant earthquake followed by a Sasquatch Apocalypse.

Don't move here. You will die. But please visit and enjoy your stay!

Love, Portland



Well, the Sasquatch Apocalypse can be dealt with by having some good laws on the books, and this book should help: http://www.amazon.com/The-Emergency-Sasquatch-Ordinance-Actu...


Also, please don't move to San Luis Obispo / Avila Beach. We have a nuclear power plant on a bluff near a fault line.

Come visit though. We have great tri-tip and outdoor activities.


not only that, it's called "diabolo canyon". I mean talk about tempting fate.


At the end of the road through Montaña de Oro State Park there's a warning siren[1] that will go off if there's a problem at the Diablo Canyon facility. Every time I get out there and see it there's a part of me that expects it to start to blare... and I'm totally glad when I'm "disappointed" and it doesn't.

Its fun when they test the sirens a couple times a year ...
