After the Pennsylvania primary on Tuesday, the Obama knitters turned their attention to similar projects in North Carolina and Indiana, where primaries are little more than a week away.
Exhilarated by last week’s win, the Clinton knitters are hoping to bolster their candidate’s coffers for the next set of primaries. Their fund-raiser: a secret gift exchange [...]

As regular sparring partners with former City Paper managing editor Brian Hickey (shown here knifing up a Hillary Clinton voodoo doll in what we can only assume were happier times), even we were surprised (and yay, discomfited) when dude threw off a decade-plus writing career to be the public voice of Johnny Doc during his [...]

Swarthmore College’s all male a cappella group, Sixteen Feet, perform “Day Man.”

Before we go any further, let us be clear: We love going to WXPN’s XPoNential Music Festival, and you should, too. Camden’s Wiggins Park is a lovely little slice of sunshine in the summer weather, and there are more good vibes in this one little chunk of New Jersey than the rest of the entire [...]

Real talk: Did J-Press (pictured) move to New York and take Cap’n Snooze simply so her wedding announcement could run in the Times? We’ll let you know as soon as she gets back on Instant Messenger, but in the meantime, SHAME ON YOU for trying to cast this love asunder. Erm, or shame on ME, [...]

>>> Well, howdy, pardners! Before we strap on the ol’ lunchtime feedbag, we was just fixin’ to let you all know that there’s a SHOWDOWN a-brewin’ come the first light of the ol’ slippery June. Would seem that some highfalutin’ city folks are aimin’ to make them Boy Scouts SAY THEY LIKE KISSIN’ MEN FULL [...]

It was a scene out of a track & field horror film.
Gibson crashed to the ground, his baton bouncing alongside his tumbling body. As the crowd gasped, Collier leapt past the fallen runner and across the finish line. Frantically searching for his baton, Gibson tried desperately to end the nightmare. Finally clenching his lost baton, [...]

Kenneth Keith guests on “The Darren Show,” summer 2007.
Here lies Kenneth Keith Kallenbach, the man who brought the Delco Burnout/Hessian archetype to a national audience, and yea, our collective regional shame. And although seeing Kenneth play on a national level definitely always provided us with deep discomfort — it was not unlike having your family’s [...]

FRIDAY:
>>> This is kind of bizarre: An outsize portion of tonight’s big rock shows could have very easily been taking place ten (or even 15) years ago. Of course, The B-52’s are riding a cultural wave of “Fuck Art, Let’s Dance” once again that makes their original run during the Reagan/Bush era seem positively quaint [...]

RECOMMENDED: We all remember Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle, a film about two college-age, multicultural men who embark on a late-night journey of self-discovery… to find hamburgers and smoke weed. In the second installment of the classic stoner film, we find Harold (John Cho) and Kumar (Kal Penn) just a few days after [...]

Walk with us for a minute here. Up here where the wild things grow, there is a very specific kind of disgruntled white person. And they hold grudges. So when I-95 built itself a long strip straight through parts of Fishtown, Port Richmond and Bridesburg back in the 1960s, many of these grudge-bearers were but [...]

Satan himself is laughing at us.

PHOTO OPS: “Sporting his Orange Crush Flyers t-shirt and Air Jordan sneakers, Mayor Nutter proclaimed all citizens to wear orange on Flyers home game days and all residents to ‘Run with the Sixers’ by wearing sneakers all day when the Sixers play at home.” We didn’t understand what the scary bunny from Donnie Darko had [...]

>>> Dude says that the real winner of the PA Primary was Philly itself, pointing to the oft-cited bar tabs and hotel bills and face time on TV with Dude and His City. ‘Tis true: For a while there, it was getting to feel less backwatery around here. But now what? [KYW]
>>> Well, it’s back [...]

>>>> If the shit ever really went down and people were no longer able to do their thing, one of the artists I would definitely consider setting myself on fire for in the public square would be Destroyer’s Dan Bejar (pictured at right casting off an early version of “Foam Hands” as if it was [...]

>>> Tell the truth: Smarty Jones (pictured here in loving portraiture by The Alonso Studio) was about 500 times cooler than that whining bitch Barbaro, who has basically become the megachurch of horses. It doesn’t seem fair, does it? At the very least, Smarty can take comfort in the fact that his likeness is being [...]

This video bears no obvious local connection other than to the global human story, wherein jealous women consider smelling their man’s dick, which affects us all. Not work safe, but on the other hand, if you get fired for watching the video for “Smell Yo Dick,” let us know and we’ll do our damnedest to [...]
