One of my wife's friends (who is looking to leave Denver) commented to me how beautiful Portland looked during the rally and asked me if I thought she would like it. Reflexively, I said, "Oh, no. You would hate it. It rains all the time--that was just a rare sunny day in Portland and the camera angle made it look its best."

After she left, my wife asked me why I lied about Portland. I explained to her that the ghost of Tom McCall lives within all Oregonians of a certain age.
