Hfeetnotes posted:We've gone longer than a year without an update before. I fully expect Onstad to one day poke his head back in the door and produce strips for a few weeks again, like a grown man returning to his grandfather's toy train set after the old man's death and giving them a few whirls around the basement rec room...

MMAgCh posted:At first it seems hopeless, because he likes craft soda so much, but then Onstad impresses everyone with his Old-School moves. Didn't he already give up on that craft soda thing? I thought someone posted something about that.

Facebook keeps telling me of a message about Alyssa Milano's breastmilk being taken from her at Heathrow. I hope it does not end up on eBay.

It's odd to consider that in past days, artists were generally this crazy, but you only heard about it two years later via carrier pigeon or screamin' town crier. Nowadays we can watch a mid-range scribbler combust in real-time. Progress?

Given that I think most of the city has SAD about 8 months out of 12, the climate alone was probably a bad idea. Roast Beef would need an entire array of lights. Though we've been lucky this spring and it's been mostly sunny. We shall pay when the entire state is on fire, though.

In the past, Onstad would've done this poo poo, his neighbords would've thought he was a hosed up guy, and we'd be digging up his brilliant works 40 years later after he died a failed soda salesmen depressed and penniless in some miserable place like Portland

I think he took a bunch of his poo poo down though which is unfortunate because it was all awesome.

It's easy to understand why he did. quote:Chris Onstad clutches a scuffed white binder bulging with notebook paper. “Pen down, please,” he says with a smile. “And no pictures.” He then opens the binder, revealing page after page of scribbled lists, calculations, and secret formulas—the meticulous record of his two-and-a-half-year quest to brew what he terms “the Belgian beer of soda pops.” http://www.portlandmonthlymag.com/eat-and-drink/articles/portland-soda-works-geeks-out-on-pop-september-2014 He looked into the mirror and saw Pat Reynolds staring back at him.  edit: The blog is still updating as of yesterday, so maybe he's still at it.

Onstad is alive, someone posted a thing in the Facebook group about the phrase "hot tranny mess" and like the first comment was Onstad popping in to apologize and say he didn't realize how offensive the word was at the time. I wanted to bring up cookbooks but that's, uh, not looked upon kindly in the group for some reason? e: this was like a week or so ago
