A guy who owns a fedora.

And a handsome gentleman, obviously.

Some of you actual Philly folks may appreciate this news:  Apparently there was a homeless dude on South Street who wore a viking helmet and was known by lots of people, some of whom loved him and others thought him a menace.  Anyway, he's dead now.

There was seriously a restaurant named Chink's Steaks in Philly? You're a bunch of MA fargs.

What's funny is that the name stems from nothing but a racial stereotype.  I've never been there but I always figured it was named after someone with the last name of Chink.  Turns out, dude who originally owned it got the nickname "chink" as a kid because his eyes were a little narrow like the orientals.  The guy who owns it now obviously has more common (and better business) sense.   

I read an article on it the other day and there was a poll on whether or not the name should change.  Like 75% voted to keep the name the same.  Go Philly!

PA City Punishes Domestic Violence Victims Who Call the Police

Norristown, but close enough.

The police threatened Ms. Briggs with eviction because she had received their assistance for domestic violence. Under Norristown's "disorderly behavior ordinance," the city penalizes landlords and tenants when the police respond to three instances of "disorderly behavior" within a four-month period. The ordinance specifically includes "domestic disturbances" as disorderly behavior that triggers enforcement of the law.

I kind of like that actually.

[Sgt PSN]

Ah, things like this make me proud to call Norristown home. 

So if SD wants to get rid of his crazy girlfriends, all he has to do is beat them on the regular until they call the cops and and get evicted?  Knuckle up, SD. 

Also, the ACLU needs to learn the difference between a city and a borough.
