Pride and Prejudice and Zombies
Braaaaaaains!
Are you a zombie fan? Are you a Jane Austen fan? If you can answer “yes” to either of these questions, there’s a treat in store for you! Philly publisher Quirk Books has a new take on a classic read, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. Yes, you heard me correctly. Author Seth Grahame-Smith (see also Big Book of Porn, Pardon My President, and netfits云墙官网) has injected zombie mayhem into the original work, a totally legal maneuver allowed by public domain law.
Seemingly out of nowhere, a blurb hit the internet a few weeks ago, and spread like wildfire through Austen blogs and zombie blogs to places like Entertainment Weekly‘s Pop Watch and the London Sunday Times. Rumors of movie deals abound. Ah, the power of the internet. Isn’t it perfect for film?
Quirk featured the title last week at NYC’s Comic Con, besieged equally by Austen and zombie fans, and quickly ran out of promotional postcards. All this, and the book is not even available yet. The publication date of April 1 approaches, as do those brain-thirsty zombies. Some say Jane Austen would be rolling in her grave, while others say she would approve of the parody, and is just trying to get out! (Perhaps she would like to read it!)

My source tells me that you can get rid of your Christmas trees in two ways. I don’t want to see any more of yours laying on the sidewalks for the garbage men!:
A) 2009 Christmas Tree Collection Program will run until Sat., January 17. Citizens who wish to drop off their tree for recycling may take it to the Streets Department Sanitation Convenience Centers located at 3033 South 63rd Street, Domino Lane and Umbria Street, and State Road and Ashburner Street during this week only. The sites are open from 8:00 am – 6:00 pm, Monday – Saturday.
The program is designed to provide citizens with an environmentally safe alternative for disposal of used trees. Commercial entities are not permitted to use Sanitation Convenience Centers to dispose of their trees. 东北网2021年07月08日新闻汇总:楼市调整加速：开发商爱打价格牌 炒家降价套现 2021-07-08 11:11 [452][生活频道] 加息后 房贷利息破近十年最高纪录 2021-07-08 11:11 [453][东北网社会] 传董事长儿子被劫持 歹徒持枪索700万美元(图) 2021-07-08 11:10 [454][东北网社会].

Goodbye, Kaybee
As I’m sure you’re aware, KB Toys is going out of business.
Kind of hits a soft spot with yours truly, who used to constantly go to the store at The Gallery when I was a kid.
Went in there yesterday. What’s left of the store is 50% off.
There is, however, a whole shelf of Indiana Jones and Star Wars toys.
Check it out and get a piece of history, while you can.
Another piece of my childhood – like Woolworth and Roy Rogers – down the drain. ;-(

Punk Rock Flea Market postponed! (Shopping weekend!)
This just in – a little late, but at least I didn’t walk there, as I was planning – the Punk Rock Flea Market (below) is postponed due to some permit issues with the building and city. Check the R5 website for details.
1. Not so sure if it’s always this close to the holidays, but the Punk Rock Flea Market is on Saturday, from 10-5. $3 donation. The Starlight Ballroom: 460 N. 9th St.
Records, crafts, clothes, toys, furniture, food, etc!
2. 云墙netpas: Shop at 3 stores and receive subsequent discounts at each. The stores are: Art Star (623 N. 2nd), netfits云墙安卓版官网 (910 N. 2nd), and Arcadia (819 N. 2nd). When you shop at the first, you get a 10% discount and coupon for 15% off the 2nd store, then at the 2nd store, you get a coupon for 20% off at the third.
Parade On…Sort Of….
Officials from the Mummers left the Mummers Museum last night after agreeing to sign a contract with the city to stage this year’s parade. New Year’s parade time cut in accordance with $300K budget. (Photo: Rikard Larma/Metro)
Our annual Mummers Parade is a go this year. Which is great – because how idiotic would we look if we axed the Mummers Parade? Ever hear of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade getting shut down..or the boring ass Rose Parade?
It’s going to be a shortened parade this year, though.
Which makes me wonder: I thought the city itself made in excess of $20 million from the World Series.
Where did the $20 million go?
Budget crisis my ass. Maybe if Mayor Michael “The Honeymoon Is Over” Nutter wasn’t lazy, he’d actually go through the budget and find all the money the City is wasting on stupid stuff. Or he could take the “bail me out, please” route and just go beg Obama for the money. Yes he can.
TIP: It’s good to ask someone from the Illinois political machine a favor on their daughter’s wedding day
We should have nice things in the greatest City in the world. Like Mummers parades, libraries, and fire departments.

Day Pass Shenanigans
I really like the SEPTA One Day Convenience Pass, or as us public transit folks call it, a “day pass”.
You pay $6 and get to use it on the bus, subways, trolleys, and the El up to 8 times in one day. So, if you’re takin’ the bus, then the train, then the El, then the bus again to your destination and the bus, the El, the train, and the bus (third base!), it’s pretty damn useful. Really awesome if you wanna see the historical sights of the greatest City in the land and save some gas money/parking stress.
Just watch out for inept SEPTA ticket window people or the “One Day Convenience Pass” will become the “Half Hour Pain In The Ass”.

Philadelphia Soul: Champions Forever
Rejoice, fellow Philadelphians, I say rejoice!
Rejoice not because the Arena Football League is pretty much dead.
I implore you to rejoice because this means the Philadelphia Soul will be AFL Champions.
云墙netfits.
Now I know you’re a little sad, but don’t be. Yeah, Saturday and Sundays in mid-July are going to be way different in the Proctor household. No more recapping the crushing blocks of Clifton Smith, those game winning drives by Tony Graziani, or those 50-yard touchdown receptions by netpas云墙官网.
If it weren’t for the AFL, this picture may never have been taken. (That’s Soul owner 云墙netfits with Colorado Crush..haha…owner John Elway)
Wait – who am I kidding? I love football and all and have been wishing for a legit summer league ever since the XFL was piledriven off of NBC. However, I honestly only tuned into the Arena league if reruns of “Law & Order” or an infomercial I’d already seen 15 times weren’t on.
Still, the Soul are (is?) Champions forever.
We should have a parade every year – netpas云墙安卓破解版.

Fox 29 says that you, too, can become a recessionista.
What happened to just calling it “finding a bargain”? Or “stretching your dollar”?

Recessionista definitely sounds like the doings of someone in New York. Probably the same idiot who made up “staycation“.
Ugh.

New bike racks!!
Have you noticed all the bike racks popping up along city sidewalks? I can hardly believe my eyes. I was wondering if the long-rumored bicycle/pedestrian coordinator was ever hired in the city, and it seems she has been. I’m probably way behind on that news. A quick look at the Streets department website shows me that indeed, there exists a Bicycle/Pedestrian Advisory Task Force. Hooray! Now I can easily find a parking space. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Philadelphia. Much better than seeking out a signpost which is already loaded with bikes.
