Which seems wildly out of character, don’t you think?
Defense lawyers contend that their clients did nothing improper and that the crimes alleged are common business practices in Philadelphia.
Oh, well then, in that case, we guess there’s nothing to talk about.

Penn Law students expecting an Easter egg hunt found more than just chocolate hidden throughout the Law School last Thursday. They discovered plastic eggs filled with “insulting” and “juvenile” cartoons that mocked Jesus, according to Law School officials.

“A peek into the Joint’s new Tuesday karaoke night - the Long Island-bred Bermanator in his teal Pumas croaking vintage Billy Joel; Gertler’s brother, Adam, taking a break from his chef duties to wear a top hat and wheeze “Brown Sugar” on the harmonica; and some brave patron unleashing a Vegas-worthy rendition of the theme […]

Say, a five-month run ain’t bad for a paper that had a hijacked name, circulation that only reached the small-yet-powerful I-own-a-vanity-newspaper demographic, and a business plan that was, in its proprietor’s own words, nonexistent. So, you know, Bulletin employees weren’t shocked when they found out that last Friday’s paper was, uh, “cancelled.” Oh, and that […]

Sometimes we wish the FBI never even put it together who John Street is.
A Seventh-Day Adventist, Street jotted down ideas for sermons (”Christianity is not a spectator sport”), as well as sayings (”You can’t always follow the path. Sometime you must blaze a trail”). He reflected on middle age (”Felt like I was running with […]
