Why Everyone Else in the World Hates Us:
Doughnut dementia
07/30/03
SARAH HUNSBERGER AND NOELLE CROMBIE
CLACKAMAS -- Elizabeth Phillips, 31, had been dreaming of the day Krispy Kreme would arrive.
The expectant mother from Milwaukie left her home at 4:41 a.m. Tuesday and expected to wait in line at the Southeast 82nd Avenue shop for at least two hours.
She knew exactly what she wanted: chocolate doughnuts with milk. And she was not planning on sharing.
"I have thought about this for a long time," said Phillips, who, along with her friend Alice Rouyer, 34, has dubbed this doughnut mission "Operation Krispy Kreme."
By the time the doors of Oregon's first Krispy Kreme shop opened at 5:30 a.m. Tuesday, hundreds of people had lined up to taste the cotton-candy sweetness of a hot doughnut, the company's signature.
Some waited a few hours. Others had been there since Sunday or Monday, enduring the blistering summer heat as the rich, yeasty smell of cooking doughnuts hung over the parking lot like smog. They cooled their hot feet in kiddie pools during the day and spread their sleeping bags on the pavement at night.
When the drive-through window opened, Scott Stevenson, his sons, a nephew and one of the boys' friends were second in line.
"Here we go, guys! Here we go! Doughnuts!" he yelled to his young passengers.
He ordered 30 dozen, which came to $127. The size of the order had grown as word spread through Stevenson's Gresham neighborhood that he was in line. The white boxes filled the back seat of his sport-utility vehicle.
Brothers Justin, Jordan and Jeff Gardner of Southeast Portland, ages 15, 17 and 19, were among the first dozen customers, winning pinstriped Krispy Kreme jerseys.
Each brother showed up at Krispy Kreme on Sunday. Their mother sent them on their way with $15 each, which was to cover meals while they waited, as well as their doughnut purchases.
By Tuesday morning, Jordan and Jeff had enough money left for a full dozen at $5.99, but younger brother Justin could afford only a half-dozen.
Even though Tuesday was the first day of official business for the new store, the people who waited in line for a day or more were hardly the first to get the doughnuts.
For days, Krispy Kreme employees have taken boxes of practice doughnuts home to their families and friends.
Portland City Commissioner Jim Francesconi carried two dozen out of the store Monday after he stopped by to talk about the progress on a future Krispy Kreme store planned for Jantzen Beach.
On Monday, garbage bags full of dress-rehearsal doughnuts were carried right past the waiting crowds and tossed into the trash bins outside the store.
"We know they're in the trash, and that drives us nuts," said Ashley Bowlin of Hillsboro.
Krispy Kreme openings throughout the nation go like this. Krispy Kreme knew what to expect and had the water cooler set up and portable toilets trucked in by midday Monday.
They also encouraged the playground atmosphere by leading future customers in the Krispy Kreme cheer.
"I say hot, you say doughnuts! Hot!"
"Doughnuts!"
"Hot!"
"Doughnuts!"
By Tuesday morning, many were sleep-deprived and cranky from listening to a church youth group play guitar and sing half the night.
"People are cutting who have been here five minutes!" Lauren Conner shouted Tuesday morning about an hour before the opening. She had spent the night in the parking lot with her sorority sisters from Portland State University.
"You can go in front of us," offered Larry Baker. "I really don't care. It's doughnuts."

Queenie and her adolescent angst. When KK came to Rochester I don't think I had one for a year after. God damn, I mean It's just doughnuts. And hey, did it ever occur to anyone that someone may need an SUV? Like a few a kids, a couple dogs, gotta pull the boat... I mean its not just for looking cool. You could rent a U-Haul, I suppose, if its all about the Day of The Doughnuts. And ... are you suggesting that God hates doughnuts? That just not logical.

So I talked to my friend today whos band opend for Little Feat on MFC weekend. They're playing at the park Ave fest. I think I'll take the kids and go. He lost his job in ATL. I wish we were hiring.

Queenie:
I don't even have to meet that guy to know that he uses his SUV for neither sport or utility purposes. He uses it for hauling donuts and for carting his morbidly obese children to "play dates".

Hah ha ... "hauling doughnuts" everybody funny.
