This week, we bring you the buzz from ONE 215 blog... namely, Philadelphia Will Do. We've featured PWD in Blogged Around Philly on numerous occasions because, hey, we often like what editor Daniel McQuade has to say. But this time he basically said this Phillyist is a whiny elitist. That's right: the unattributed chicken wing quote was courtesy of yours truly. The chicken wings in question were served at a Yelp Elite event at the......

We bring you the buzz in the 215 blogs this week. Philebrity wondered about the govenrnment's plan to put speed bump decals around town. Fake speed bumps? People don't even slow down for the real ones. Next thing you know, they'll be putting paintings of cops in high-crime areas. A List Of Things Thrown Five Minutes Ago has a summer cocktail series going on. Summer and cocktails: two things we love. Cheers! Philly Burbs was......

We bring you the buzz in the 215 blogs this week. Rubber Hose celebrated rats with wings. We think they're sort of pretty, especially the ones that look like an oil spill on asphalt. Missing kittens and gay marriage. Do the two have anything in common? Not really, but this blog entry from Crushing Krisis resonated with this Phillyist nonetheless. Unsatisfied with an email from Arlen Specter, Brendan Calling called the Senator's office demanding answers.......

We bring you the buzz in the 215 blogs. The Highstrung Loner was amused by SEPTA's new signage. (Warning: parts of this website are NSFW.) Philly Chit Chat was sad to find out that the TLA near the art museum is closing. We say look on the bright side: the inventory sale is a good opportunity to augment your DVD collection. Phawker pointed out the virtual media blackout on the Articles of Impeachment read against......

We bring you the buzz in the 215 blogs this week. Philebrity found fault with local columnist/DJ/man-about-town A.D. Amorosi's grammar and punctuation skills. For the record, this Phillyist is horrified, too. No more privately-owned cars on our potholed streets? Philadelphia Will Do isn't so sure about that. We're as flummoxed as Phillybits about the whole feminist terrorist thing. And who knew raising kids was a form of jihad? That sort of takes the whole concept......

We bring you the buzz in the 215 blogs this week. Attytood pondered beard styles and political correctness. Dovate was excited to see loons in Philadelphia... a month ago. And commenters didn't let that time lapse go. Blankbaby was concerned about the recent shortage of Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper in the Philly area, but has high hopes that supplies will be replenished soon. Lucky us—we've got that stuff in our vending machine at work.......

We bring you the buzz in the 215 blogs this week. Phawker is running a "Question the Parking Authority" contest. It's really not so much a contest as a challenge—a dare, if you will. Regardless, we like the idea and the prize. The Philadelphia Turkey took a look at the new slogan on the former "Trenton Makes" bridge. We know a guy who has that bridge tattooed across his back. Time for a touch......

We bring you the buzz from the 215 blogs this week. Philly Gossip noted that Parker Posey, in town shooting a film with Demi Moore, stopped by our friend Dan's shop, Wilbur Vintage in The Antiquarian. Dan gave Parker's fluffball of a dog some chewing gum. Awww... This reminds us of a cartoon in which a dog swallowed gum and, um, blew a bubble out the other end. No word from Dan on whether this......

We bring you the buzz from the 215 blogs this week. The Clog is recruiting Flyers fans in Pittsburgh for a bit of mischief. We assume this is in response to something some Pittsburgh person did to slight our fair city and/or our hockey team, but this Phillyist isn't enough of a sports fan to know these things. Anyway, The Clog forgot step three: take a picture (it'll last longer). PSoTD noted that the military......

Philebrity applauded the installation of solar panels at the Philadelphia Naval Yard while simultaneously making fun of Naval Yard denizen Urban Outfitters. Maybe next we'll get some windmills. We know of a few places to put them where there's plenty of hot air being blown about. Geeky Mom pondered why nice people finish last, while pointing out the glaring discrepancies in how local students purport to think and how they actually act. Slacktivist made an......

We 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......

We bring you the buzz from the 215 blogs this week: Philebrity was as annoyed as we are with Philadelphia Gay News publisher Mark Segal's daily "one question for Obama" emails—especially since there is NO QUESTION MARK in the email. Oh... no question, Mark... no pun intended. Heh. The Philadelphia Turkey wrote about the battle for control of shrubbery at the Delaware Avenue casinos. The satire stars DiCicco and Nutter in the modern day version......

We bring you the buzz from the 215 blogosphere this week. The Illadelph called for a bar to up the awesomeness level at Franklin Square. Beer and mini golf? We're so there. And actually, it just might happen, though not until next summer. Foobooz posted a recession specials guide highlighting the best cheap eats around town. From happy hours with free or discounted food to specials broken out by day of the week and price......

We bring you the buzz from the 215 blogs this week. Philebrity dissected the Comcast/BitTorrent relationship and broke down exactly why it's not good news for anyone. In short, it deals a crushing blow to net neutrality. Well hey, it's not as if Comcast is known for their great business practices. This Phillyist in particular has had one problem after another with the behemoth. Metroblogging pondered Obama's status as a pop culture icon on par......

Biodegradable beer cups were the news of the day over at The Illadelph, which lauded Aramark's move toward more environmentally-friendly containers for the liver- and waistline-destroying treats served at Citizens Bank Park. Also, did you know that on opening day Phillies fans will eat, among other things, 15,000 hot dogs, 6,000 soft pretzels and 5,000 cheesesteaks? With bikini season just around the corner, we shudder to think of the implications. Attytood discussed the Tonya Harding......

Here's what went down in the 215 blogs this week, with some unintentional emphasis on cheesesteaks. Dan Gross at the Daily News Philly Gossip blog spilled the latest pseudo-celebrity gossip: cheesesteak mogul Tony Luke Jr. has landed a starring role as a boxer in upcoming film The Nail, set to start shooting in South Philly May 20. We can't wait to have our streets blocked off for camera crews and craft services. In other cheesesteak......

What happened this week in the City of Bloggerly Love... Philebrity clued us in on where to go to find out what a hipster is. There's actually a whole seminar about them. Better sign up soon as we're sure this one will be filled to capacity with scholars trying to unravel the mysteries of shaggy hair and ironic t-shirts. Jim Rutter at Broad Street Review thought fallen NY governor Eliot Spitzer could take some pointers......

The new writers just keep on coming – this time, in the form of Stephanie Mannis, a chronic Yelper who won us over when she sent us a bit of marketing collateral she wrote for work about an American answer to the Beatles. Welcome aboard, Stephanie! Here's the buzz in the 215 blogs this week: Jeff Deeney over at Phawker sang the praises of author Susan Jacoby, who in turn railed against the dumbing down......
