>>> In these Nuttery times, when we’ve got this great new Mayor who’s honest and trying to get everything on the up-and-up, sometimes it’s easy to forget that, if you want to get an up close look at local election results online, you must first endear yourself to a 75-year-old woman named Margaret Tartaglione for a password. And if she doesn’t like the looks of you, forget it, mister. Never mind that every living American has a right to see this stuff. So Dan Urevick-Ackelsberg of Young Philly Politics needs your help; use the Hallwatch.org fax bank to petition the City to open up those records in such a way that you never need to ask a 75-year-old woman for a computer password again. I mean, come on. [Hallwatch]
>>> Attn. conspiracy nuts: You can, at long last, get a peek at what goes on in the Philly FBI Office for two days next week, free of charge. And no, they’re not hiring. And yes, we are going to have to take that metal salad colander off your head while you’re here. Sorry. [Inky]
>>> Somebody is buying Daily Candy, but just so you know, it’s not us. Today, we’re buying Flavor-Ice. Not the company, just a big box of it. You want some? [Gawker]
