Eat Up, Blogosphere: Buyouts, Bernard and Philadelphie!

Between the buyouts and the ridiculously large amounts of food in Philadelphia, bloggers have had their hands full. Here's today's look at the Philadelphia blogosphere:

>>> Johnny Goodtimes has an interview with local boxing great Bernard Hopkins. The whole interview will be played out the rest of the week. We hope Johnny gets in a question about that parade he was supposed to have down Broad Street. We forgot about it so quickly that we don't even know if it happened.

>>> Parisist has an article in French. Why does this matter? Well, it mentions Philadelphia! Philadelphie, actually. A Phillyist reader who blogs at West End checks in with an article that's easier for us Americans to digest. Apparently, we digest a lot more than English: we serve some gigantic servings here in Philadelphia, it seems.

>>> help you geek out over the new Neil Young album, Prairie Wind. We generally try to link to things that relate to Philly, so here you go: Neil Young wrote Philadelphia. Bam.

>>> Contrary to popular belief, we love that Dan Rubin, so we're gonna link him again: Here's a short note on an Inquirer goodbye tradition in the wake of the buyout announcements. Will Bunch, meanwhile, holds his hand close to the vest.

>>> Philly Future gets in on the buyout action, posting thoughts on the subject, as well as links from around the Philadelphia blogosphere. Karl also links us to a story about New York Times job cuts, which we missed in all the hubbub, bub.

>>> Are you participating in National Novel Writing Month? Blankbaby is. We'll try, but we're not making any promises. Except the promise to try. Which isn't much of a promise at all.

>>> Dr. Philebrity checks in about we lose our shit and stuff over bands like Franz Ferdinand and The Strokes.
