Saturday, December 25th, 2010I hate to throw out the bile on Christmas Day, but there are few people I despise more than weathermen. I don’t like weather babes, either, but at least they can offer teh hotness. For the past week and a half, they told us that Philly would get snow after Christmas. A lot of it. [...]
Merry Christmas!
Saturday, December 25th, 2010“For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, [...]

Nothing Left But The “Wrapping”
Friday, December 24th, 2010The more things change, the more they stay the same. Since Thanksgiving, B101 (101.1FM) in Philly has been playing all Christmas music, all the time. And it is good. What is not good is that for the second year in a row, I have not heard this, my all-time favorite Christmas song. Not once. (Although, [...]
US Soccer Star Donovan Files For Divorce
Friday, December 24th, 2010That’s a damned shame. I like Landon Donovan, and he’s a terrific player. It was reported that the couple reconciled during the World Cup, but I guess that didn’t last. Who knows? Maybe he is kicking his balls into someone else’s goal now? U.S. soccer superstar and World Cup hero Landon Donovan has filed for [...]
NORAD Tracks Santa
Friday, December 24th, 2010It’s Christmas Eve, and that means Santa’s journey is about to begin. It also means that NORAD will be tracking Jolly Old Saint Nick throughout the day. Regular readers of SYLG know I post this every year – since 2007 – for two reasons. First, it’s because I am an even bigger kid at Christmas [...]
Body Found In Suitcase In Harlem
Thursday, December 23rd, 2010Oh, please tell me Al Sharpton or Charlie Rangel are involved! Just when you thought there couldn’t be more crime in Harlem, something like this happens. Apparently, witnesses were alerted to the suitcase after they saw a foot sticking out of the bag. Yuck. Cops discovered a grisly scene when they were called to check [...]
Look! Up In The Sky!
Thursday, December 23rd, 2010It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s a wacky Romanian protester! Perched on the very edge of a balcony, he gestures wildly, shouting at the politicians in the chamber below. Seconds later, television engineer Adrian Sobaru hurls himself from the parapet of Romania’s parliament. Helpless observers can only watch in horror as the father-of-two, wearing [...]
Michelle Antoinette Strikes Again
Thursday, December 23rd, 2010The First Lady couldn’t wait a few days to start her Christmas vacation, and that decision will cost the taxpayers at least $63,000. Mrs. Obama chose to leave without him Saturday, taking their two children and the dog along with her. Mrs. Obama’s decision to go without the president forced her to take a separate [...]
Punch A Panda Today!
Wednesday, December 22nd, 2010Oh, I am so going to New York on Christmas Eve! Angry enough to punch a defenseless panda? Then come to New York. Every week this winter, performance artist Nate Hill dons a panda suit, heads to the streets, and challenges [people] to take a swing. “Hit me. Hit more hard,” he urged passersby on [...]
