While we are all involved in this hearty chorus where the mob is trying to decide whether the Eagles should fire Andy Reid or Donovan McNabb or both, consider this: McNabb loves Philly so much that he lives in Arizona. And now that it has come to light that even after vandals burned “GO CARDS” [...]

When it all shakes out, those of us here in Pennsylvania could debate for years the exact size and shape of Governor Ed Rendell‘s role in the 2008 elections. But on this we can all agree: Between tirelessly campaigning for Hillary Clinton — long after it seemed sensible or just to do so — to [...]

Thanks everybody for hanging with us today! And, erm, Happy Obama Day! We’re gonna sign off for now, we’ll be back tomorrow with all of your nonaugurational-type needs. PEACE!

So, CNN estimates that 2 million people stood in the cold weather to witness the Inauguration of our very first African American President. That’s the same amount of people who celebrated the World Series victory by the Philadelphia Phillies on the day of their parade down Broad Street. We’re on the fence about if this. [...]

File under: Yellow being mellow, brown sticking around, et al.

Anything I can tell you about the Daft Punk Obama song will be obscured by the very fact that there is a Daft Punk Obama song. It’s a collaboration with Adam Freeland and it is… awful. Scenes from the late-00′s electro nadir. Awful. Yuck. Right-click here to download.

In case you haven’t heard Ted Kennedy suffered what is sounding like a fairly massive seizure at the President’s Inaugural Luncheon. Our thoughts are with him. (Robert Byrd also is said to have required medical attention for a less serious ailment.) And already, CNN is making a complete shitshow of it by tragedy-mongering, speculating, needling [...]

Says Phileb Intern Of Record Nick G: “I have never seen so many people but everyone seems pretty jubiliant despite the 20 degree weather. But seriously, this place is full. Also, more portapotties than anywhere ever.”

Whether or not Real Nutter and Bizarro Nutter will eventually form like Voltron is something we won’t know until Spiderman 4 comes out. But we do know that the Dude totally did Olivia Nutter a fatherly solid by taking her to the Inauguration today. Is this the kind of political stage-momming that we saw with [...]

Watch here. [Quicktime] Jim MacMillan was on the scene at Independence Mall as Obama was sworn in.

Nothing food-related, but Bush just left. It’s a good day to be an American. There’s probably a bevy of Easy Mac on that chopper. In related news, Obama has good penmanship.

We’ll be adding to this as the day goes on. If you’ve got a suggestion, holler in the comments.

The new WhiteHouse.gov is already live. Thank God we’ve finally got a president who’s got great taste in fonts.

President Barry O. just totally dropped some of the lyrics to “Pick Yourself Up,” performed here by Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. It’s good advice, yo.

Damn it feels good to be a rakish East Coast Catholic today.

11:53AM: NOOOOOOOO!!! Is this really happening? The crowd here WAS in stitches -literally LOLing — at Rick Warren‘s Will Farrell-esque pronunciation of Obama’s kids’ names. But then he started saying The Lord’s Prayer. Not fucking cool. Next up: ARETHA! Wow, she’s killing it. Sounds great! And I mean, LOOK at those crowd shots. WAIT. There’s [...]

Please, by all means, LET’S TALK. As soon as the invocation is over. PS. Collin Flatt is live over at Phoodie.info, too.

AFTER THE JUMP, so as not to lead you straight into autoplay hell.

Because some very nice local rich couple? Who bought the giant walking piano that Tom Hanks is on in Big? Said that the Please Touch Museum could totally have it come February? MOM? Can we? After the jump, an old Prism TV clip with walking piano inventor Remo Saraceni.

You can safely assume that is exactly what you are being told in this fairly curious Wired magazine piece on Comcast CEO Brian Roberts (pictured) that just hit the streets. It was all just a big misunderstanding, you see. Well, yes, Comcast definitely throttled P2P traffic, you see, and then lied about why, and then [...]
