  • Jook, on 06/02/2009, -0/+23I love Powells! Get lost in that place for days...
  • jitterbits, on 06/02/2009, -0/+20Oh, Portland, you're so wacky!
  • inactive, on 06/02/2009, -1/+20This thread is now about Powells
  • imnojezus, on 06/02/2009, -1/+9ZOOBOMBERS ARE GO.

    Actually, they're waiting for next Sunday.
  • jitterbits, on 06/02/2009, -0/+7Next time, send up a flare and I'll come find you. I'm probably in there anyway.
  • inactive, on 06/02/2009, -0/+6I love running across Portland-related stuff randomly online! Zoobombers are a crazy crowd - if you're looking for something fun to do in p-town, this'd be something to consider.
  • JustinNoland, on 06/02/2009, -0/+5Good to see the PDX crowd representing in this thread! Keep it weird, guys.

    On topic: Powell's City of Books is ***** impressive. So many books. It's fun to try and find the oldest one, because they have some very ancient copies there. The oldest I've seen to date was an original edition of a religious text from 1896. Can anyone beat it?
  • sisternovena, on 06/02/2009, -0/+5The Zoobomb Pyle actually just yesterday became a civic monument:

  • AndrewMoyer, on 06/02/2009, -0/+5They might hate on you because pedo's cliche and tired, but that was a great comment after seeing the picture.
  • Enlefo, on 06/02/2009, -1/+5Woo PDX!
  • Nevarius, on 06/02/2009, -0/+4Almost. 1899 'longfellow's complete poems..illustrated' seems to be an old school/college book due to many reprints starting at 1841
  • anexanhume, on 06/02/2009, -1/+5So that's how tricycles are made.
  • Enlefo, on 06/02/2009, -0/+3Fun if you don't mind scraping your skin off....
  • slicksoul999, on 06/02/2009, -0/+2This looks like something that would happen to Lt. Dangle
  • CrazyArcher, on 06/03/2009, -0/+2Powells has some more valuable books that they keep under lock in their warehouse or something. The more valuable and older books are locked up there. I think you can see them from their website, though.
  • edwartica, on 06/03/2009, -0/+2Psst. Its called the rare book room!
  • WarriorBlake, on 06/02/2009, -1/+3Na Na Na Na NA NA. Katamari Damachi!
  • picalicious, on 06/02/2009, -0/+2Yay Powells!
  • Jook, on 06/08/2009, -0/+1You're on! My flare will be "green"! Maybe a little smoky, too!
  • BusterStacks, on 06/03/2009, -0/+1Yeah, normally the pile is way bigger. So many douchey hipsters...
  • EmperorAwesome, on 06/03/2009, -1/+2Pile. It's spelled "pile".
  • luke374, on 06/02/2009, -1/+2Don't walk, march on in!

    the bikes are from a bunch of guys who get hammered, take the bikes all the way up a big hill in the metro and then ride all the way down.
  • thomash, on 06/02/2009, -0/+1oh i just realised the activity has become a bit more ordered and accepted by now... didnt get the zoobombing links at the start
  • edwartica, on 06/03/2009, -0/+1Then there was what Tom Potter said about the zoobombers, ie GET OFF MY LAWN! Damn Kids!
  • Velocity14, on 06/11/2009, -0/+1I am humored that I know you guys outside of Digg.

  • edwartica, on 06/03/2009, -0/+1And what the hell does that have to do with anything?
  • inactive, on 06/03/2009, -1/+2Sure, in the same way that CnC3 is fun if MISSLE SQUAD MISSILE SQUAD

  • edwartica, on 06/03/2009, -0/+1I'm at powell's right this second.
  • edwartica, on 06/03/2009, -0/+1I like riding the bus late on sunday nights, just because there's always a couple of them on the bus. They always tell great stories.
  • edwartica, on 06/03/2009, -0/+1As does every other tourist to Portland. GET OFF MY LAWN!
  • gusisfry, on 06/03/2009, -1/+1PDX!!!!!
    Damn, that reminds me that I need to pick up the new XO Elliot Smith 33 1/3!
  • davidlow, on 06/03/2009, -1/+1This is a great example of what reading does to people.
  • 2of8, on 06/02/2009, -1/+1My old school had a dictionary in a kitchen cupboard from about that same time. =S

  • ecstaticdesign, on 06/03/2009, -0/+0I'm just 'New Boot' goofin'.
  • Vehshya, on 06/03/2009, -1/+1Gotta love P-Town.

  • arace1, on 06/03/2009, -0/+0Are they originally designed to chain up penny farthings?
  • sharedknowledge, on 06/02/2009, -1/+1good one.
  • imnojezus, on 06/02/2009, -1/+1"ordered" is a relative term.
  • CeruleanXero, on 06/03/2009, -2/+0Police are looking for a helmeted and caped man said to be muttering about mutants.
  • Cowzeetgrass, on 06/02/2009, -4/+0Likewise, don't leave your car unattended in Berwyn, Illinois too long. The previous Spindle has since been dismantled for a Wallgreens, but they're looking to build a new one. Being Illinois, big surprise, they've tried badgering an already billions in debt state government for funding. No link; you can either Google Berwyn, Illinois Spindle or watch Wayne's World 2. Nothing against either one, but pick your poison.
