Bada bing.

BAZINGA !

Boo-yah!

How many Law Suits and BOLI claims are the City of Portland Maintenance Bureau going to go thru before they get rid of the management. Street systems has no money, because the new Senior Manager doesnt know how to budget. Doesnt read the contract and hires his friends. Wow.
Why on earth would you hire someone from California. It doesnt rain there. Maintenance Bureau has hundreds of thousands of dollars in new equipment, and it sits in the rain.
Why... No money til July 1st, 2012
A fifth grader could this isnt working.

Damn good thing there was a Canadian in there, or else we'd bomb the Baldwins. Again.

Rim shot.

Needs three Canadians - an Anglophone, a Francophone and a "First Nations".

Looks like they'll just have to get it Togo.

Is anyone picking up the Czech after this crowd dines at whatever restaurant eventually accepts them?

Re: "'You can't come in here without a Thai.'"

Ainu that.
