We here at Philebrity love the environment so much that we never leave Fishtown; instead, we go green at home and stay healthy on a steady diet of coffee (styrofoam only, please), menthol cigarettes laced with aluminum and freon, and staying beautiful with Aquanet and lipstick made from the finest whale oils available. (It’s cool, we know a guy in Chinatown.) Our carbon footprint resembles but a little fuzzy bunny’s. So when we heard that the car-driving folks among us are so broken up about rising gas prices that they’re actually RIDING SEPTA, well, it just drove the point home how committed to real change you guys are. We’re so proud! Meanwhile, it would seem that local cab drivers have moved on from acting like the credit card swiper doesn’t work — this is always a fun game — to raising prices more than a dollar per ride. Oh, what’s that Mr. Cab Driver? You didn’t hear what I said because you were talking on the phone THE ENTIRE RIDE? Oh, it was nothing. I was just waxing poetic about how much love there is in this world, and about how this gas crisis may just bring us all together after all.
