on Northwest Passages: Lynn Schooler
The question is: Does he have all of this history in his head whilst walking or did all the history come in whilst researching for the book?

on Northwest Passages: Lynn Schooler
Michio's ultimate trust in life and that things would work out, ultimately ended in his death. He was crazy to sleep outside when there were repeated warning signs of a crazy bear.

on Northwest Passages: Lynn Schooler
I've read both of Lynn's books, recomendations from Claire Wallace (he knows her well). I'm a bit of a photographer myself, and absolutely loved all of his stories in the Blue Bear about guiding Michio and others in some horrible conditions on the inside passage and just making it clear of a bubble netting feeding of humpback whales. Lynn really ads some good history to the setting and allows you to visulize yourself exactly where he was.

on Carrie Brownstein and Portlandia
Portlandia should do something on the whole Urban Farming culture in PDX, especially with Chickens. Everyone in SE has chickens on their block. They are loud, dirty, eat every plant you own and all for what? a dozen eggs costs only $1.99. It's crazy!
