Drop me an email...I know a bunch of awesome places/venues/restaurants that everyone needs to know about before moving there. Oh and you'll probably want a bike if you plan on living there any amount of time. Make sure you get a higher end Kryptonite, Eugene is 2nd only to New York in bike thefts. Oh and stay away from Springfield at night if you can help it. That's where all the tweakers that steal your bike and rob you hang out. You’re moving to Eugene?

For a place with a sculpture of the World's Burliest Hippy, there are a lot of seedy characters lurking in the shrubberies downtown at night. I'd be so glad to get back to P-town. Now I know how my Boston friends feel when they come out to western Mass to see me. Eugene used to freak me out when my and would play down there.

I read "Sleep Stuffs" and saw the first gizmo before scrolling and seeing the watch. Gizmo #1 looked like a tiny inclined bed with black pillows and a white blanket over it so I assumed it was some wacky Japanese usb thing from Akihabara (which, considering that BB has turned into a <I>Let's Go: Japan</I> companion site isn't that surprising).
