Had a great buying experience at North Penn, thanks to the lovely and talented Tom McParland.

Just say no to TD Bank. Philadelphia area Commerce Bank was swallowed up by TD and their fees are outrageous. The guy who originally started Commerce is doing well with Republic Bank.

Private financing? What’s taking so long for the city to sign on? The longer they wait, the more chance the team has to ask for public funds. Start construction now!

Would buy. Today.

And fuck those people who refer to the Art Museum steps as the Rocky steps. For fuck’s sake.

Philadelphia Flyers GM Ron Hextall immediately signed Ghitelman after the game.

The ugly secret of newspapers is that copy editors do a great deal of what non-journalism people think reporters or other editors, with fancier titles, do. They have for generations caught typos; deleted potentially horrifying factual errors; made 20 inches of bloated copy into a tight, bright, and juicy 12; noticed

We all do.

The Phillies radio guys were talking about the crowd, or lack thereof. Scott Franzke said there were “dozens” of people in attendance. Larry Andersen countered “but not many dozens.”

The Phils extended manager Pete Mackanin’s contract on May 11. Since then (and I’m counting today as a loss because it’s 10-2 Marlins in the 9th), their record is 4-15. Why the hell did they extend him? Was there some kind of line forming to hire a 65-year-old manager with no history of success?

The only place he’s missed is here in Philly. 

Friggin’ Canadians. So damn nice. 

That’s how the bigly brained one rolls. Everything is about him.

Connecticut is losing revenue by doing this. It’s missing out on 7.75 percent sales tax on cars costing more than $50,000.

Sadder words were never spoken.

It’s the North Jersey drivers who suck. We’re civilized in the genteel southern part of the state. Until we encounter a clueless Philly driver. Then all bets are off.

Where in South Jersey?

I’ve heard VPNs don’t play well with Netflix. Anyone have any experience with Algo and Netflix? And what’s the VPN that works best with Netflix?

I’ve never understood why MLB schedules games in the Northeast and Midwest during the first 10-15 days of April. Why not schedule road trips in warmer cities or to places with domes? I’m going to my 38th straight Phillies home opener on Friday and the weather looks iffy at best - cloudy and windy with a chance of rain
