we have too many cool places here in portland to count ~
one of them is music millenium on burnside ~
we were there yesterday looking for some vinyl ~
it's not your typical record & cd store ~
for one thing there are these fellows ~
the walls are filled with retro novelty goodness like gumby, felix, mr bill, giant eyeballs & even slug stampede! ~
retro fisher price, tin toys, games.. even mr dad's inner child finds treasure here ~
emergency bigfoot & all seeing eyes ~
all manner of retro candy up front ~
what would jesus wear? ~
incense ~
& yes, this is potland afterall ~
so although sadly i couldn't snag the limited edition special vinyl i was looking for, we did bring home fun toys anyway ~
i'll be posting my finds here soon enough ~
remember next time you visit pdx, don't miss this spot ~
keeping portland weird ~
click here for my i love portland album & use an old laptop or pc with firefox or google chrome to hear my custom elliott smith mix (phones steal the music!) ~

today i'm sharing what is my most favorite videogame of all ~
american mcgee's alice by ea games on pc from 2000 ~
what can i say except that i just love this game ~
at the time i played this game i had my pc hooked up to my tv for a nice big screen ~
i got well into this twisted wonderland & then needed to upgrade my pc to xp which resulted in my losing all playability! ~
an old friend, humpty dumpty ~
the cheshire cat by my side ~
original gameplay guide ~
oldschool installation ~
alice had a whole arsenal of toys she used as weapons in this dark wonderland ~
& so there i was stuck in the middle of the game for years with no end in sight ~
more than once people have commented about a resemblence between this alice & myself ~
i tried every fix i could to get the game to play but nothing worked ~
these are the notes taken by alice's psychiatrist at rutledge asylum ~
complete ~
there was laudanum & camphor ~
bloodletting & solitary confinement ~
art therapy? ~
force-feeding ~
experimental drugs ~
in-patient abuse ~
homicide & suicide attempts ~
insane children & a therapy cat? ~
psychoanalysis ~
you know, the usual ~
while dr heironymous q. wilson tries everything to evoke a breakthrough, alice fights her personal demons all in her own mind ~
i can relate ~
'if it's my keen invention you'd like to destroy, i'll withstand your best shot: i've got the right toy..' ~
check back tomorrow to see alice's progress ~
this has been a flashback friday favorite post from 2014.. also, alice fans should support american mcgee over on Patreon like i do to get cool insider benefits & help bring about more adventures in wonderland :D ~
