I have a couple of routes I walk at lunch. During the spring I like to walk the Pearl district in Portland. Very eclectic. Lost of people out walking during the spring and summer. Sidewalk cafes, up-scale homes, friendly people. However, if I feel like I just want to walk and have a cigar, I take a different route. Don't want to foul up the air with my cigar, so I head down toward the industrial area by my work. It's an area I wouldn't walk in after dark. Rough looking bars, railroad tracks, lots of industrial businesses belching smoke into the air. I have a specific route. Go past this one building frequently. Outside the main door there is a bench and there is usually this one gal out there having a cigarette. She is rough looking. Looks like she would be just as at home pouring beers at the bar as she would be bouncing rowdies at the door. I definitely would not *kitten* with her. For the first year I just got wary looks when I walked by. Occasionally, I say hi and get a hi back.

Today, I walked by. She stood up as I approached and stepped into my path. "Hi" I say. "Hi', she replies, "Are you married?" "Yep." Oh, okay." End of conversation.

I guess rough-looking, chain-smoking 50 somethings are my demographic.

    Dude, I hear that. Well, except instead of rough-looking chicks it's single moms; I must look trustworthy or something.

    I walk Burnside on the west side a lot. Lots of people to look at. Last week I smoked a cigar while walking down 39th, then went west on Belmont for a stretch. Typically I head down Hawthorne. Lots of weirdos/shops to see there ;)

    Every now and again I walk down the street and think to myself "I wonder if I'll run into RoadDog." True story.

    The question to ask yourself here, Mike, is does she have a deeper voice than you. :heart: :noway:

    I rarely go through that area. I live near SE 174th and Division, but I was at Movie Madness at 44th and Belmont to pick up a movie on Monday and back again on Tuesday to drop it off.

    Had one of those raspy voices that only a long term smoker can develop.

    Everyone trusts cartoons, that's why all the single moms are coming out. Question?? Do you spend a lot of time at Chuck E Cheese? I've heard recently that it is a haven for single parents :huh:

    Hah! No, I don't. :noway: And with my status as a 20-something single (and fatherless) male, I think that sets me up for a different profile than serial single mother dater.

    A friend in my news feed said that tonight at her Chuck E. Cheese they're having "divorced parent night". Man, I guess if I were a huge creep that could be a great way to meet single moms :laugh:

    Come on down to Naito Parkway, just north of the Fremont Bridge. I can hook you up.
