Blogged Around Philly

no cows were harmed in the making of this blogWe bring you the buzz from the 215 blogs this week:

Phillybits was not a fan of some Hillary posters that knocked off Obama's artsy promos. We say imitation is the highest form of flattery, and that blue rendering does wonders to soften her image while still making her look powerful. Plus, we're guessing they weren't authorized by the campaign anyway.

Johnny Goodtimes was mad as hell that Wawa appears to be abandoning the City of Brotherly Love. Six of the 10 Center City locations have closed their doors and no new ones have sprung up to take their places. Where, oh where will we get our Pancake Sizzlis now? Wawa, you're breaking our hearts.

Eschaton delivered a depressing little graph depicting skyrocketing oil prices. Sigh... What more is there to say, other than that public transportation is looking more and more appealing, something we'd never thought possible.

Lock up your daughters—and your farm animals. Phawker noted that a New Jersey cop, already in hot water over charges of molesting young girls, decided to get a bit kinkier and have his way with a busty bovine. Moooooove over, wannabe Lolitas: now there's something meatier.

Citizen Mom saluted the ass-grabbing antics of an anonymous Philly lesbian who got up close and personal with former first daughter Chelsea Clinton. She then followed up with James Strzalkowski's "One Gay Voice: Why I Cannot Support Obama" (hint: it has nothing to do with Chelsea's posterior but rather with a certain aspiring first lady's asinine comment).

The 14th windiest state drew attention to CNN's headline shirts. And really, who wouldn't want a shirt that says "Half-eaten Obama waffle goes up for bid"?
