I know I'm not the only one. LAIKA has a movie coming out featuring the crow. It's time the city makes the humble crow the official bird of Portland.

A pennant hung over my bed. I've lived a life of hope, suffered through disappointment. In 2022, I was hit by a car. Watched every game I could of Adley's rookie year.
