Watching the Trimet advertising department is like watching a commercial for the latest cell phone.
SEE HOW GREAT WE ARE? WE ARE JUST SO WONDERFUL.
The latest nonsense: 5th and 6th avenues designated one of 10 Great Streets in America
What a load of shit that is. There is absolutely nothing special about 5th and 6th avenues.
This award comes from the AMERICAN PLANNING ASSOCIATION whoever the hell they are. Some special interest trade group that exists to support planning projects I imagine. Trimet is most likely a member

Also today we have big daddy federal government coming to town!
They came to heap congratulations on Trimet for the wonderful job they are doing!
In case you haven't noticed these federal transportation secretaries travel all over America congratulating every single transit district that they handed money too.
It's all PR
The big shots get together for some bullshit photo ops and self congratulations |
