Portland Welder Finds Coping Through Beans
In north Portland, Jerome Techtman, a 62 year old welder, shares a quirky philosophy to cope with modern life. He counted the beans in eight ounce pork and beans cans from 325 to 340 per can as a relief from emotional tension. He notes bean prices rose from six for a quarter to 17 cents per can and now cans hold about 186 beans with the rest soup. Flowers surround his home and ivy grows through a hole he drilled in the dining room wall to let outdoor greenery in.
