this man (Thomas Westerman Wolf) runs the joint. Is he any good?  NERD ALERT: wiki posted:After earning his Ph.D., his dissertation on the United States House of Representatives was named the best of 1981 by the American Political Science Association. a man of principle: quote:Wolf has expressed his opposition to targeting countries with economic sanctions or boycotts, saying, "We ... will not encourage economic punishment in place of peaceful solutions to challenging conflicts"[56] (he later singled out Russia as an exception to this policy and immediately declared his support for sanctions and divestment from Russia after the 2022 invasion of Ukraine during his second term).[57]

I just learned what a prostate is because our most notable senator has been afflicted. BOB CASEY  "Mister Mercurial" they call him. wiki posted:In 2009, Casey voted to allow firearms in checked baggage on trains, and he has also voted against bills that would restrict gun ownership; in 2013 he voted to ban high-capacity magazines carrying over 10 rounds.[71] On April 17, 2013, Casey voted in favor of the Public Safety and Second Amendment Rights Protection Act to amend the background check process and require a background check for firearms transfers made at gun shows or on the internet.[72] His fellow Pennsylvania Senator Pat Toomey was a cosponsor in creating the bill.

The Steagles are the main historical gridiron football team. wiki posted:The Steagles were the team created by the temporary merger of Pennsylvania's two National Football League (NFL) teams, the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Philadelphia Eagles, during the 1943 season. The two franchises were compelled to field a single combined team because both had lost many players to military service during World War II.

Not all chips are equal Hartley's gently caress those things up with some sort of super concentration of seasoning that makes them entirely unlike anything else you'll have ever tasted it's almost certainly enough salt and saturated fat to stop your heart in a single serving, but if you're already resigned to eating chips you may as well do it right

indigi posted:wtf you moved to my old neighborhood I tried a Wawa sub in Florida and the best I can say is "competitively priced." I don't see why Pennsylvanians are so proud of their gas-stations-with-hoagies when there are a million actual sandwich shops here. Today I rode the subway (love it) to Center City (that's what we call downtown) and saw Franklin's greatest work as an architect, the Monument to Chastity.

platzapS posted:love this city Tankie's used to be Cookie's. It was an amazing dive bar with no beer on tap, just cans of Rolling Rock, generously poured liquor shots, or Carlo Rossi in plastic cups, cash only. Smoking allowed. An Italian man sold pills out of the women's restroom. The bartender was a deaf bookie. There was a shotgun mounted on the wall over the mirror behind the bar with a sign that said WE DON'T CALL 911. An ancient jukebox was in one corner, it still worked fine. Then the owner died and now it's just another casualty of gentrification.

I tried to wave to you Drunkboxer! One thumb down so far to the Free Library of Philadelphia. The two small branches I've tried had pisspoor selection, for babies. Weirdly strict about having a local address too, ended up having to show my digital apartment lease to get a card. My backup plan was to make such a scene that they'd call the cops, and then use the police report as proof of residence. I should eat something.

Wawa is trash, Philadelphia area people defend it out of tribalism. I would never speak ill of it to an out of towner. Amongst themselves, the people of SE PA talk only about how Wawa used to be good.
