Wednesday, August 24th, 2011Let’s say you want to take a trip. Following our brilliant vice-president’s advice, you decide to take mass transportation – in this case, a Greyhound bus.

It is the only memorial on the Mall that does not honor a president or fallen soldiers. Standing in the [...]
R.I.P Joey Vento
Tuesday, August 23rd, 2011Philadelphia has lost a true icon today. Joey was 71. Outspoken Philly cheesesteak legend Joey Vento died of a massive heart attack Tuesday, Geno’s Steaks confirmed. Besides bringing Geno’s to prominence as one of the premiere cheesesteak joints in the city of the steak sandwich, Vento also took stands against illegal immigration making international news [...]
It’s True: Costco Charges Less
Tuesday, August 23rd, 2011Especially since they removed the chargers for hemp-fueled, stinking hippie-inspired electric cars. I’ll give Costco a little credit for trying to get in on the bottom floor of new technology. Unfortunately, the technology they sided with was useless – and as unpopular as a full body massage from a naked Helen Thomas. And like someone [...]
Hey, Did You Feel That?

Corrupt Mayor Covers For Corrupt School Boss
Tuesday, August 23rd, 2011Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter (a Democrat, as if that needed to be pointed out) sees no problem with former School District Fuhrer Arlene Ackerman’s $905,000 buyout. Um, okay . . . Amazingly, Mayor Squidward also sees no problem with the fact that $405,000 of that money came from private, anonymous donations. The fact that anonymous, [...]

So, What Are Ya Doing On September 15th?

My good friend Bitter is on the committee for the Bucks County Friends Of NRA, and they will be holding their first ever banquet on Thursday, September 15th.

Ding, Dong, The Witch Is Dead!
Monday, August 22nd, 2011Hear that? That’s the sound of Philadelphia public school students giving a collective sigh of relief. Why? Because Arlene Ackerman is stepping down as Superintendent of the School District of Philadelphia. Ackerman is an arrogant ass who was overpaid and under-qualified. She will not be missed. Fox 29 News has confirmed that Arlene Ackerman is [...]
