I've always heard Portland is the greatest place to live: Now I know it's true!

The McMenamins site alone makes me want to move there!

That's the most beautiful web design I've seen!

Hey Sister, I just moved here from podunk North Carolina and it was the best thing I ever did! Portland is home for me now. Ever thought of moving?

Plus, this month's PDX Browncoats shindig is two days prior to the start of this. It's looking to be a semi-big one, so come on by.

To sit in a theater, drink good microbrew and watch Firefly. Portland OR isn't paradise, but it's damn close. Too bad I'm no where close to there. I've been to one of the McMenamins theaters when I was in Portland and they are a class act.

Wishing I was there.

Is the Firefly Kolsch anything like Mudder's Milk?

No, it's just a Kolsch.

I'll take it. I'll drink almost anything while watching Firefly let alone a perfect microbrew from the best in the northwest. Hell, I'd almost fly down from Alaska just for this event. McMennamin's -- any McMennamin's -- is my idea of heaven on earth.

Can anyone save me a pint?

I live in Bend, Oregon, about a three hour drive.

I am so there for the July 31st showing. My two favorite episodes!

There's two kinds of people in this world: those with loaded guns, and those who dig.
Now DIG.
