Monday, February 14th, 2011Today is my youngest boy’s third birthday. His day ends Earp Birthday Week, which started on the 8th. Kevin is a very active boy who loves running around, jumping up and down on the couch, and beating up Dad. I cannot lie down anywhere in his vicinity, because I’ll have a foot in the back/face/groin [...]
History Comes Alive
Sunday, February 13th, 2011Last week, Realwest and Ed suggested I wait a few weeks before posting my weight. I’m still on Weight Watchers, but obsessing over one pound a week isn’t helping, so I’m taking their advice. In the meantime, I’ll share something really cool my Aunt Helene sent me. It’s the Ultimate History Quiz, and it’s fantastic. [...]
PPD Officer Pulls Man From Burning Home
Sunday, February 13th, 2011Philadelphia Police Officer Tawana Dickerson risked her own life by running into the burning residence to save a West Oak Lane man. This is a great story on its own, but for me it’s an even better one because Officer Dickerson works in my division. Man, I’ll bet it pained WPVI to post a good [...]
Olivia Wilde: Newly Separated
Sunday, February 13th, 2011Oh great, now she tells me. “House” and “Tron” star Olivia Wilde and her husband, Italian prince Tao Ruspoli, have mutually agreed to separate after eight years of marriage, People magazine reports. A source tells the magazine, “They have been living apart after trying for quite some time to make their relationship work.” If Olivia [...]
Can We Just Disband The TSA Already?
Saturday, February 12th, 2011This lovely woman is Amy Sullivan. She is a writer and editor at TIME Magazine. She is also a raving moonbat. So imagine my surprise when she ripped the TSA this week after they embarrassed themselves once again. Sullivan opted out of the x-ray screening at Miami International Airport last week, and chose instead for [...]
Erik Earp: Feet Of Fury
Saturday, February 12th, 2011My sons Kyle and Erik each had important soccer games today. Kyle’s team was playing Bridesburg for sole possession of first place in their division, and Erik was playing to keep pace with his team’s divisional leader. Since they started playing, I always offered them incentives for playing well. I told them I would give [...]
Playboy Pics Cost Cheerleader Her Job
Saturday, February 12th, 2011There’s just something about Mississippi girls. Maybe it’s the super hot southern accent. Maybe it’s the southern hospitality ingrained in most of them. Or maybe it’s that they just make really good college cheerleaders. Of course, they also seem to make pretty good Playboy models, too. Now, most universities frown upon Playboy Playmates occupying slots [...]

Barry Bonds Gets A Break
Friday, February 11th, 2011And really, why shouldn’t he? He is a terribly gifted athlete who made millions and millions of dollars hitting a baseball over the fence of almost every major league ballpark. Of course, he hit a lot of those after sticking needles full of steroids into his arse, arms, legs, and every other appendage. As you [...]
Great Mayor Dishonored Because Of Name
Friday, February 11th, 2011Fort Wayne, Indiana will throw an iconic former mayor under the bus because the current government doesn’t want to feel uncomfortable. Isn’t that nice? A former Indiana mayor who won four terms in the 1930s and 1950s is proving less popular with modern-day city leaders, who say they probably won’t name a new government center [...]
