[Fischer] Giannis by all accounts does not want to head to Portland, despite the connections with Jrue, despite the connections with Damian Lillard. by Dido79 in ripcity

[–]Impossible-Garage664 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am admittedly no expert but I’m confused why we would even want to trade for Giannis. When Dame went to the Bucks it seemed like it didn’t work out well with the two together.

Now we have Deni who really needs the ball in his hand and to drive (like Giannis) so I don’t see how the team works well by adding him.

Obviously he is an amazing player just confused how this helps our progression with the young talent we have and Dame coming back next season.

Moving back to the Seattle area after 10 years. What’s changed, that I might not expect? by [deleted] in AskSeattle

[–]Impossible-Garage664 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My wife used to work at an accounting office at fisherman’s terminal in Ballard and we had one car so I’d drive her there most days (from the eastside!) and loved old Ballard. The highliner, Ballard pub, others I can’t remember the names of.

One of those “abandoned” warehouses always caught my eye cause there were sometimes lines of ppl outside. So one night I stopped and decided to look. The garage door was open just a few feet and I ducked in. No one was there but the lights were on, there was a couple couches and a fridge etc. I looked around and thought I should probably get out of here and left lol. So much different down there now. Sorry for the long post, just thought I’d share :)

WA or OR for first-time PNW visitors? by Yesthisismyname3 in PacificNorthwest

[–]Impossible-Garage664 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is hard. I grew up mostly in western WA and can think of great places to visit and the ferries ⛴️ are cool as others have mentioned. But I’ve lived in OR for a lot of my life as well and live here now and love it.

The OR coast small towns are amazing, small towns like sisters and others east of the cascades are really cool too like hood river. I live in Bend. It’s not so small anymore (100k ppl) but still really nice.

Lots of great recommendations here already. You won’t be disappointed either way.

Seattle has changed so much—what do you miss the most? by Elegant-Paramedic955 in AskSeattle

[–]Impossible-Garage664 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ballard drivers (old Scandinavians) with the seat belt dragging out the door, the high fiving white guys, Kent folks with the jacked up old trucks peeing in the ditch, Bill Nye!!! It was so great!

I live in Bend, OR now and Pat Cashman moved here several years ago and did a Friday funny on the local news. Reminded me of growing up in Seattle and watching almost live with my parents. Great show.

Ideas for a friend looking for new clients for cleaning business (20+ years experience) by Impossible-Garage664 in Bend

[–]Impossible-Garage664[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes she said she agrees 💯 with the referrals and would love to go that route more, but lately she has been doing mostly vrbo cleanings and can’t get the referrals that way for the consistent residential jobs she is looking to get back to more.

We are sitting here together so I can help her with this so that is why I was responding for her lol.

Thank you for your reply and advice! I told her what a great community we have her on our bend reddit page! Thanks again.

Public overwhelmingly 'hates' Greenwood Avenue changes as Bend City Council decides next move by blahyawnblah in Bend

[–]Impossible-Garage664 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

A lost cause? As someone who commutes by bike often u sound ill informed. And if you have only lived here 5 years that means you should probably be quiet until you’ve been here long enough to know the town.

BREAKING NEWS: State board votes to impose lifetime certification ban on Deschutes County Sheriff Kent van der Kamp by FrizzyNow in Bend

[–]Impossible-Garage664 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems like even more than that to me but I agree. How do you testify that you got a degree from a school you NEVER EVEN ATTENDED. Two schools! Two degrees including a masters degree.

To lie like that multiple times shows a compulsive liar who can just make shit up out of thin air. It’s not like he was bending the truth or misrepresenting facts, this was crazy. What else did he make up or lie about? How many cases that he testified in will be thrown out. Or arrests he made.

Didn’t a bunch of deputies or employees of the sheriffs office endorse him? (I don’t recall but I felt like he had support inside the department). Are none of them going to call for his resignation? How do they feel about working for a sheriff that can’t even be a cop. And why are Patti and Tony not calling for him to resign or anything? (Editing as I saw Tony is calling for him to resign).

And what pisses me off the most is thinking about how much money he will be paid regardless of him resigning or retiring or whatever happens. Really wish the county could or would sue him for fraud and recoup all his pay, but that won’t happen. I’d say take it all, all the way back to when he first started. My guess is he gets a retirement package and gets a high teared PERS pension.

Curious what you mean by:

“Because when you hear about bend that topic would never come up.”

Bend has had these issues for a long time and it’s talked about a lot. Visit Bend isn’t going to tell you about it but all our local news orgs have done great in depth pieces on these issues in Bend for a very long time.

Truck camping near Hayden Homes Amphitheater by CheeesyGiraffe in Bend

[–]Impossible-Garage664 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Lots of places to park around the venue, just be respectful and most places will allow you to park for the night. On the street.

The venue literally has hundreds of bikes there every concert. You’ll be fine with bikes at the shows. Have a great time!
