Oregonian callout thread..

[AMD64Blondie]

How many Oregonians do we have here?

Portland resident here.

Lived here all my life.(nearly 30 years- my 30th birthday is July 29.)

 

[Atomic Playboy]

Also a lifelong Portland resident. So, to answer your question, two. We have two Oregonians.

 

[rbV5]

Lived here for 53 years!

 

[Ayrahvon]

I've lived in Portland area (Gresham) for over a year now. Moving to Victoria BC in the next month however.

 

[Kyle]

0-19 in Oregon, lived in Washington the last 11 years

 

[T9D]

I live in the Columbia Gorge now. Amazing how much sun we get here. Same rainfall as LA. Only 14 inches. It's why I moved out of Lake Oswego.

 

[nageov3t]

I grew up in Portland, but I've been in the Northeast/Mid-Atlantic since adolescence.

 

[waggy]

I lived in Salem (out near the airport) when i was younger. My mother lived in salem.

I also lived in Portland (around 180th and burnside)

loved the area.

 

[Malak]

I was born in Oregon, does that count? Only lived there maybe a day or two?

 

[JPS35]

All 43 years...Beautiful, varied environments within an hour or two (mountains, coast, desert, forest, big city/small towns, Rogue basin, grasslands, lakes, etc.), but F'ed UP Politics and backassward government at the state and 1/2 the local/county levels.

 

[Agent11]

I was born in California, but I've been here for about a decade.

 

[etrigan420]

Born and raised. Now live in WA. Dad lives in Oak Grove, mom lives eastside near 82nd and Tillamook.

 

[jpeyton]

I've been here for 26 years.

All 43 years...Beautiful, varied environments within an hour or two (mountains, coast, desert, forest, big city/small towns, Rogue basin, grasslands, lakes, etc.), but F'ed UP Politics and backassward government at the state and 1/2 the local/county levels.

Ditto, but the state/local government isn't that bad. I've lived in Mulnomah/Washington/Clackamas/Linn/Benton counties, and they all have their moments of idiocy. The state overall leans left, but not so far left that Democrats can f**k everything up like they do in California (and this is coming from a registered Democrat).

 

[Bubbaleone]

Born in Portland, 1951. Grew up in Zigzag, lived in Cherryville, Sandy, Estacada, Gresham, and now Hillsboro, for the past 15 years.

 

[BoomerD]

Or-gon is the only western state in which I've never lived or worked. I'm currently about 180 miles north of Portland.

 

[Dr. Detroit]

Orygun!

Go Ducks! UO alumni!

Likes:
Summer
strippers
no sales tax

Dislikes:
the other 8-months of rain, fog, and cold miserable weather
Not being able to pump your own gas
the weird mix of hipster & logger types
the hatred of Californians

 

[Beckalina]

Born and raised in Portland, now living out east in La Grande.

 

[PowerEngineer]

Over 35 years in the Portland/Vancouver area.

 

[datalink7]

Grew up in Eugene. I don't live in Oregon right now (in the military) but I'm still a state resident. Intend to retire there when I get out of the military.

 

[ViRGE]

I was born in California, but I've been here for about a decade.

Bloody migrants. Go home, we already have plenty of Californians and don't want any more!

 

[Wingznut]

Count me in!

 

[Hail The Brain Slug]

I live in Eugene.

 

[Eos]

Born and raised in Eugene, moved away for short periods a couple times in 1992, and 2002. Finally moved here in 2005.
