Re: [UC] Break My Routine and Smack Me Upside the Head w/ Toy

[Anthony West]

Oh is definitely looking for crossover Democrats in the fall. His 
reasoning is: all five Dem At-Large candidates are shoo-ins, so what's 
the point? The only actual contest, then, is between Republicans -- five 
of whom are running, only two of whom will be elected. If the two GOP 
incumbents are elected, they will be Frank Rizzo and Jack Kelly. Oh 
argues (while remaining careful not to sound disloyal) he would be 
better on many reform issues than either of those two.


-- Tony West
For those of you looking to support local SW progressive/responsible 
talent, David Oh (R), a former Dem disillusioned by the Big City 
Machine, has an outstanding shot for a Council at Large seat, and 
would be an excellent advocate for improving the quality of life for 
all residents west of the Schuylkill.

Dear CPN Members,

The proprietors of the upcoming Dock Street Brewery and Restaurant, along
with the University City District, would like to invite all of you to a
"Before" Party on Wednesday, February 28th, from 5:30 to 7:30 pm, at the
Firehouse, 701 South 50th Street (see the attached flyer). 

Many of you pitched in to help support Dock Street in its efforts to open
at the Firehouse, so come celebrate the beginning of construction and get
a taste (literally) of what to expect when the restaurant opens later
this year. "The Illuminator," Dock Street's famous double-bock beer, will
be served. For this reason, the event will be only for neighbors 21 and
over.

Hope to see you there,

I believe that it will also be a pizza restaurant. The one in center
city had both a restaurant and a bar. There was food at the event, but
it wasn't the type of stuff the restaurant would be serving.

I thought it was pretty funny that the yellow jackets asked to see  what was 
in the cup, there was me all elderly and proper-looking  and  leaning on my 
cane.but we all had a good laugh over it.   Given the enormous efforts of 
the church  to stop Dock Street from moving  in and the large numbers of people 
coming to the opening, I think it was wise  not to give the church any fodder 
for further protest!   And by the  way, when will they open for good?

The picture of the ucd guards checking Ms. Tilley's cup to make sure she
wasn't taking beer with her is the most potent image one could possibly
imagine about this little soiree.

Did they sniff it? Dip a finger in and taste it? Give her a breathalyzer?
Make her walk a straight line?

Will the "ucd guards" be on regular duty once Das Deutschmann Essenhaus und
Brau Pub opens to perform similar checks? As usual in this neighborhood, the
mind boggles over with possibilities.

RE: [UC] Break My Routine and Smack Me Upside the Head

It was pretty much 100 people standing and talking in a warehouse with a
slide show, food, and beer. There were a bunch of kids there but the
place had just been gutted, so it was an empty building made of concrete
and brick. If you didn't feel like standing around and talking to your
neighbors with a plate of potato salad in your hands, it wouldn't have
been much fun, as it was, I got to meet some swank local artists
(including Conrad Erb, a marvelous wedding photographer who just moved
to the area and was photographing the event), got a hug from John
Fenton, and met a bunch of people Behind The Scenes at Philly Car Share.
Oh, and I saw Andy Toy not get endorsed by UCD. I don't think I left
until 10 or 11.

"Much more of this junk and I'm gonna turn into Glenn Moyer, only a violent

I, the Prince of ghetto darkness, welcome brother Bender into the order of evil 
criminals.  For a time, some of us evil doers believed brother Bender had 
turned into Father Tony and had cloistered himself beneath John Fry park to 
pray for the souls of overpaid lying Penn employees.

Others had believed brother Bender had turned into a Melani and was doing the 
funky vibe with the cats at the creepy upscale horror chambers of the Horn and 
Hardart.  Fortunately, brother Bender has returned to ghetto darkness, and is 
ready to take the unholy everlasting oath to destroy district property values 
and terrorize all good families of the district.  This unholy renter has 
eagerly started his mission of destruction by "watering" the flowers in the 
upscale urinals of Baltimore Ave.

Now, as we wait for the everlasting day of torment, when the angels of UCD are 
forever vanquished, and we can fling the whores, gangs, and hellhounds of Clark 
Park directly to the lake of fire:

Let us pray:

Evil is great
Evil is good
Let us thank evil 
For Brother Bender

  Layout is pretty swank all right, but the production values, if that's the 
phrase I want, are quite uneven. The portrait of Our Leader on p 2 looks 
swanky, as if Kyle Cassidy himself might have shot it, but the head shots of 
the "Employees of the Month" on p. 7 are truly disgraceful -- if I were one of 
these lackeys I might be inspired to burn down the massa house, simply on the 
basis of how I was portrayed publicly. 

  But the photo of the atrocious "brand new planters" comes through loud and 
clear. BTW who ordered those montrosities? They look like the scat of the 
800-pound gorilla, up and down the avenue. Presumably the logic is like that of 
the US bases in Iraq -- if we put em on the ground, it will be very hard for 
the natives to get rid of them. Not only are they extremely ugly and already 
becoming garbage magnets, but as others on this list have observed they are 
very high maintenance -- which presumably is the point. 

  I don't know if I should be grateful that I am now receiving my very own copy 
of theQuest in the US mail -- does that make me one of the anointed? -- but as 
I mentioned before, I didn't even subscribe. I didn't ask for the planters 
either. Or any of the rest of this yuppie swill. 

  Much more of this junk and I'm gonna turn into Glenn Moyer, only a violent 
edition, and it won't be purty. My only consolation is that the real estate 
boom is rapidly going bust, and hopefully the resulting dive in inflated house 
prices is going to bring the neighbors to their senses and get em moving on out 
to Narberth, like in the good old days.

Yeah, but they're still ugly.

Oh. Maybe you're right. If so, then they're certainly serving a  
useful public function.

Get that -- "UN-MODERATED COMMENTS". Be the first one on your block to sock

here on

ye olde UC Listserve -- now tell it to an audience of "real people."
