Degrees
Remember seven degrees of Kevin Bacon? Today I discovered I'm three degrees from the Nazi inner circle, four from Hitler, thanks to an acquaintance with an interesting family history. I can't say who, but kind of freaky...freaky in the interesting kind of way. Incidentally, I'm also three degrees from Kevin Bacon and two degrees from President John F. Kennedy. Small world.

(Re)Building PDX
Fabulous new Federal building in downtown portland. A nondescript '74 special was stripped down to the proverbial studs, or in this case the steel framing and concrete floor plates, and reassembled all bionic man style. Love how the GSA likes to push the architectural envelope in their projects around the country.
