Double-A Is Back!
I just stumbled upon a copy a Portland City ordinance authorizing a couple years of my work for the Water Bureau! Amazing what can be found online these days! This might look good clipped to the back of a resume!

Future city water rates in some of the worse drought areas could reach $1/gallon. Portland sells its water by the hundred cubic foot unit. The sewerage charge is usually based on water consumption, but is at a higher rate! Customer service explains that it is because they have to process sewage, so it is more expensive than delivering water. The city adds chlorine and ammonia which are supposed to kill those bacteria. They don't add fluoride, but the water district to the west does. Another nice day here. On my way walking from the transit center, I came upon a farmer's market in a church parking lot. Same old flimflam. Lots of fresh strawberries, yet I seem to recall that strawberries don't ripen around here for another couple of weeks. The large sized vegetables they sell look California grown. They just don't grow that big around here! At least they never did in my garden. I walk past the Tigard City Hall on my way to the library. The area looks more rural than the center of a city, but with some industrial buildings scattered about. I'm glad I get to come to this library now. The Internet computers sit mostly unused. Don't think my "luxury" motel has free WiFi, but I am enjoying the full cable channel access. The motel seems to be doing lousy business. Looks like only a handful of long term residents like myself are staying there. This just aren't pulling people off the road to fill the units at night. There visibility is bad.. A row of units in the back look nicer. I think it was added later. This at a time when every fleabag hotel in downtown Portland has no vacancy. At least here I have my own private toilet and shower. When I was living in the ancient and decrepit Henry Building downtown, every once in a while someone would walk down the hall saying, "Living the dream!" Double-A Fresh/pure water is the new gold. |

Severn Trent sold the city of Portland a water billing system that bombed, and cost the city millions! I actually advised Portland not to go with Severn Trent because their system was unproven, but they ignored my advise to their peril. What about Monsanto and all their Frankenfoods? Some call then Monsatan. Went down to the Old Town clinic today to have my legs wrapped by my favorite nurse. It is free until they figure out I am no longer staying at RCP. The nurse set me up for a free food handout next Friday. Now if only I could find a free beer handout! A local brewery just up the street from the clinic used to give free beer when you took the tour. Unfortunately they were bought out and closed down years ago. One of the gals at RCP got to me via the nurse a list of other places to stay, but they mostly look to me like downtown flophouses. Problem where I'm at is I can't cook anything. Double-A |

Double-A Is Back!
It has been sunny weather for the last week! Spring has finally arrived.
Thursday I went to the clinic as usual. Alicia, my favorite nurse, rewrapped my wounds as usual. On Friday I came to the clinic again, but to get a 15 dollar voucher for some free food including fresh fruits and vegetables from a lunch wagon that looks like a well restored trolley car. Also to get some advice on finding an apartment. My problem is in still owing my old landlord $2,6000. I think they gouged me and so I don't want to pay them. But new landlords turn me down because of it. Dawn, the consultant, didn't think using single payer services would get me around that. But she thought bankruptcy would be a good idea if I could be absolutely sure that all that money in my bank account, solely from Social Security, is not attachable or distributable in the bankruptcy. I will talk to her again on Monday. I have made it back to the library today and enjoying this lovely and quiet place. Double-A |
