Just checking your history and this is EXACTLY us. We thought that living a few hours from Portland, OR would be like living a few hours from Boston & NYC. NOOOOO

We feel so claustrophobic and land locked here and while some of Oregon is undeniably beautiful, a lot of it is ugly and brown. Everyone heads to the beautiful places and they all get over crowded.

Don’t get me started on the food. Most restaurants here have exactly the same “pub” menu, even the upscale or “ethnic” places. We used to live in a small town in New Hampshire within a half hour of a Michelin starred restaurant and 2 dozen restaurants of all kinds that are better than anything we’ve had since moving here!

We just spent 2 weeks house hunting in NH & Maine (and making sure we weren’t crazy or romanticizing things) and we’re more excited than ever to leave Oregon. We didn’t see a single homeless person, our kids got to play with other well behaved children with attentive parents and we ate our faces off. Can’t wait to leave Oregon behind.

I had willington pizza this Monday and modern this Wednesday, sausage and mushroom both places, and I have to say the Greek pizza at willington was more enjoyable. Their crust is absolutely delicious. Modern was good no doubt, but it was really greasy and I felt bad eating more than a couple slices. I guess to be fair pizza twice in 3 days might have put modern at a disadvantage. Call it a tie. But I'm not sold on this new haven thing, and I'm definitely going to check out these Willimantic places.

Black jack is statistically the only game that has possible positive EV over a long time frame with near-perfect statistical play (aka basic knowledge of rules and play)... Unless the black jack pay is 6/5 and the offshoot plays are limited (some games do not allow play off a split).

Infinite hand bj its pretty easy to figure out who is cheating based on wager structure, along with noticing a lack of side bets.

Had a schizophrenic client who had a huge abcess in his jaw, and he was convinced it was a device inplanted to record him. He wouldn't see a doctor because he didn't want the device retrieved and listened to. We had to convince him that we had someone who could secretly help him without the government knowing. Thankfully we found a doctor to play along, because that thing could have killed him.
