Last night, a buddy and I were talking about this year’s Eagles team and season on the whole. He’s a huge Eagles fan and has been all his life despite growing up in Steelers country. So, he feels your pain. Anyway, I said to him, "Listen, man, it’s time to just admit it. The Eagles stink. Donovan McNabb is back to throwing his skipping stone passes and Andy Reid stands on the sideline debating whether......

What's new and/or interesting in Philly theaters this weekend. 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days Two friends and roommates in Communist Romania in the late '80s find themselves with a problem: one of them is pregnant and needs an abortion, but abortions are illegal.

What's new and/or interesting in Philly theaters this weekend. Twelve and Holding - A coming-of-age film with what looks like equal parts goofy adolescent comedy and dark, intense drama. Basically it's a handful of twelve-year-olds coming to terms with the fact that their parents are human and life sucks sometimes, these discoveries being brought on by the sudden and tragic death of the main character's twin brother. Sounds like it could be rewarding, but tough......

Okay. So elephants are one of Phillyist's favorite animals, and we're excited to finally get to show you a picture of them. We decided that we needed to be pachyderm-friendly in our headline too, and we were going to go with Groucho Marx ("One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas.
