I have all that stuff except for the "writing" skills and degree and stuff... Maybe they'd take me?

Maybe. It's minimum wage for 20 hours a week, but it's basically what we do all day on OPPO for free...

I'm just kidding, I don't have a free 20 hours a week or I'd take it.

I live here... but I wonder if writing about cars as a job would turn my favorite hobby into... a job?

Also, I bet like you mentioned that its minimum wage/bust your chops/bottom-of-of-the-totem-pole stuff. Its good I already have a job.

Everything that can be said about cars has now been said.

We're too cool to recognize any other place named Portland. Even, if we were, um, named after them ...

I'm not willing to let a discussion about Portland go without making at least one reference to Portlandia.
