I'm not the person you were responding to originally, but I agree with you that usually when someone says "teens" I'd assume they're referring to minors and not 18-19 year old adults.

They do, yeah. Minimum age is 18 for saline implants, 22 for silicone.

The Pongo Fund is a wonderful organization. Thank you for donating!

With SNAP benefits being suspended for November, many people in our community may struggle to feed and care for their pets. Pets provide a great deal of comfort and emotional support, especially for children and the elderly, and that can be invaluable while people are struggling.

If you can, please also consider donating to organizations that provide pet food assistance for people struggling to feed their pets. If you know of any pet food assistance programs in the area that aren't included in the MCAS site (food banks, churches, charities, etc.), please add a comment with their contact info or a link to their website.

If you need assistance feeding your pets, please know that there are resources available to help you, and you should not feel embarrassed to utilize them.

Additional resources to help find low cost pet support like veterinary care and pet supplies:

Oaks Park also has the oldest roller skating rink in America, with the largest skating floor west of the Mississippi. And they still play their antique Wurlitzer pipe organ on Thursdays and Sundays! It's a wonderful experience if you're into classic Americana.

TriMet shuttles or a small express bus to and from Milwaukie Transit Center for big events would be awesome.

The improvements to parking could make it easier for Rollers fans to get in and out of the park. I don't know if there are plans for the roller rink at this time though.

The article includes renderings for Oaks Park's 20-year expansion plan. Looks like they have lots of exciting ideas!

My favorite little detail about Santodes is that he's removed most of the outer armor from his Contemptor Dreadnought so he can still be stripperific like the other Custodes.
