Daily Stank Image Bank: “Train Door” at Camp 18

Train Door
The conductor’s seat in an old transportation train. If only those walls could talk… 

From Kristin Wall:

There’s a handful of places in Portland that visually recharge my batteries and serve as inspiration for my photography. Two of my favorites are alongside the train tracks on Highway 30 in North Portland and the hub of the North East. Both are true representations of what is means to live in Portland.

Dec 5: Draw Pictures of (or just look at) Hot Cabaret Models at Dante’s–”When Cabaret Meets Art School”

I was told by MJ/Mirage (rumor has it she will be wearing a pink candy theme outfit) about this event Wednesday. You pay a little cash (goes to models), bring your sketchbook, and draw pictures of cabaret models. Apparently, it is done by “London” of Suicide Girl fame. I wonder how one could possibly get class credit for this….hey AiPD, start working on that

From Dr Sketchy’s Myspace page (we might call this page NSFW is you work in one of those environments):

As seen in Willamette Weeks “Best Of Portland”!
Featuring beautiful boy and girl models! ~Costumes!~ Drinks, drawing and debauchery! ~ Contests and Prizes! ~ Music and food!
Every Wednesday 7pm Dantes on SW 3rd & Burnside

Cyber Monday is Here: PDX PIPELINE Gear is What You/They Want!

So, apparently everyone slacks off work today to shop online. At least that is what The Man wants you to think. Well, if you are going to do that, you might as well hook up the Pipeline and Kristin with some Beer Monies.

The Holiday Ale Festival is almost here you know.

Crank
There’s an added dimension with the years rust. You can almost hear the pieces grinding together.
