I’m currently watching Game 3 of the World Series of the Phillies vs. the Rays, and they keep touting this stat of “100 season of futility” referring to the fact that in 25 years, the four Philadelphia sports teams (Eagles, Flyers, 76ers, and Phillies) have not won a national championship since the 76ers did it [...]

Zoidberg the Betta Fish, a life-long resident of Philadelphia, passed away from natural causes this week.  He was 1 3/4 years old.
Named after the fictional doctor in the “Futurama” series, he will be remembered for his weekly-changing monikers, which included “Foreign Correspondent Zoidberg”, “Assistant to the Regional Manager Zoidberg”, “Hot Rod Zoidberg”, and “Supreme Mugwump [...]

Today there was an open casting call for Transformers 2 being held in Philadelphia at the Wachovia Center.  They were looking for extras, and Kristine wanted to go, so I figured, why not?  Apparently one of the scenes involves students moving in to their dorms, and although Shia LaBeouf is apparently attending Princeton, they’re using [...]

Today on my way home from work WMGK played Pink Floyd’s The Dark Side of the Moon in it’s entirety.  I thought that was pretty awesome how they played the whole thing.  They said afterwards that on this day 35 years ago the album was released in the UK.
“Money” needs to be a song in [...]

Since I entered college I’ve been fortunate enough to have all three of my favorite teams (Rangers, Mets, and Giants) be division rivals with Philadelphia teams (Flyers, Phillies, and Eagles), so the teams I like are in town fairly often.
While I’ve seen the Mets multiple times in Philadelphia, the Giants come to town only once [...]
