We feel it's important to note that today is Free Taco Day. Because a base was stolen during the World Series, you can now go to any participating Taco Bell between 2PM and 6PM today and get one free "Crunchy Seasoned Beef Taco." To find a Taco Bell in the area, go here.......

Philly as a "festering spiritual slum?" We can see that more than as "the most genuinely Christian movement in America," but we’re sitting over here. We do however buy the "capital of American dorkdom" label. A Hoover-McCain analogy is too frightening to think about before lunch. Committee of Seventy wants to get out the vote—and keep it fair.
