Week In Will Do: Making News Out Of No News
• The Philadelphia Will Do People of the Year Express kept chugging along. This week’s honorees: McMuhammad, John Street (right), Jethro Heiko, Darren Daulton, Jim Osman and Stephen Morse. (Photo of Street via Flickr.) • The Newspaper Guild settled with management, then fired off an angry, hilarious, awesome memo. Meanwhile, in Jersey teachers actually did walk off the job. • It seemed Allen Iverson was on his way out, but then… he’s still here. Fortunately, now that the 76ers have Larry Brown back, the team will surely win it all! Also, Keystone Cops. Let’s see how long this one lasts. • SEPTA will screw us all, but not until July! • A man wanted for several crimes was arrested in the Philadelphia Free Library because he checked his Myspace account there every day. How authorities found out he checked his Myspace page every day is still unknown. • Riverton, New Jersey, banned Festivus celebration, igniting angry emails from Seinfeld nerds coast to coast. • Fans of The Gross Clinic are still making efforts to save the painting by selilng $2 buttons. Anybody want to buy 34 million buttons? • God damn Big caused a stir, forcing grade schoolers to be escorted out of the play. • Cherry Hill was apparently defeated by Smut. It always wins! • Andy Reid has a nice vertical leap. • The Inquirer offended, like, people who are easily offended, I guess with a comic strip unrelated to why people were offended. • And, sadly this week, we mourned the passing of actor Peter Boyle and, much more close to home, Phillyist’s Star Foster. Our condolences to family and friends, especially those of Star. Her family has asked that donations be made to Central High School. Have a good weekend, folks. Go Eagles. |
