Sorry, but I can’t say that I’m all that upset about that douchebag that got tasered at the John Kerry speech. He was an obnoxious ass who kept running from the cops and then screaming “What am I doing?” You’re resisting arrest, dumbass. Now take your medicine. ZAP! I’m just hoping that we can hire those cops who have no patience for douchebags to start patrolling Manaynk.
Don’t WOrry! He’s Safe!
Rumors were bandied about that K-Fed was going to be assassinated, but apparently this so called killer was no Gavrilo Princip. Hell, he was not even a Leon Czolgosz. Listen to me, potential killer, and listen real good: You lay one finger on Kevin, and it’s going to be you and me, bub. And trust me, you don’t want that. Not at all. You are Playing With Fire, Buster. Playing With Fire.
UPDATE: Suspect named! (NSFW due to cussin’)
The good news
David Akers is thus far having a really nice season.
Jams Win (Repped by OJ Simpson)
This rock band, whose songs all sound exactly the same, have a hit song called “Rockstar” that morons in Manayunk (namely: everyone in Manayunk) who wear their hats backwards think is “totally kickass”.
Pavarotti Pall BEarer Hernia Club WIns
THis 19 year old has a #1 hit with the song “Umbrella”.
Pics of last weeks winners
Here we go. Finally. Pics of the winners, along with questions about “What the kids are listening to.” Post an answer under each pic. One guess per person.
The Week In Review
Started the week on Monday, when I played quizzo at the Dark Horse with Chet Bumstead and D-Mac and finished, as my quizzo teams always do, in 2nd place. (Our team name: Andy Reid’s Sons Killed Pavarotti.) If we had jokered the right round, we would have won.
On Tuesday at O’Neals, it was the Pavarotti Pall Bearer Hernia Club winning a blowout, kicking the Young Old and Restless to the curb, 98-84.
On to the Bards, where the Sofa Kingdom aced the final round to edge Two Step Hustle and Flow, 111-106. Mr. Peanut did not enter the equation.
The Jams (AKA Wrinkled, Out of Time) put up the most impressive performance of the week, nailing 39 out of 40 questions on their way to a 113-95 win over This Questions Worth…Ten Points at a packed Locust Rendezvous.
From a packed Rendezvous to an eerily quiet Black Sheep. Perhaps falling victim to the old “Nobody goes there anymore, it’s too crowded” philosophy, the Sheep has been fairly quiet for the last couple of weeks, not the wall to wall madhouse it usually is. Anyways, it was Yes You Can’t pulling off a narrow 102-98 win over Duane’s World. Banana recorded the 2nd lowest score ever in quizzo history, a 10.
Steve, Take Us Back We’ll Change wiped out the Snap, Crackle, and Popped Collars, 112-101 at the Good Dog, missing only two questions the whole game.
The Sofa Kingdom continued the tear that started after last week’s debacle, winning their third straight match since the incident. This time it was a 111-101 win over Genetalia From Australia.

Brilliant line.

The weekend
Alright, alright, I’m working on the week in review now. I know, I know, but the first fall weekend was great for napping, not for getting work done. So I laid on the couch and watched football and baseball essentially all weekend (best game: Alabama vs. Arkansas). And I went to King Tut. It was pretty good but I think it’s lame when, after you’ve already paid $32.50, they charge you $6 for a set of headsets, so you appear either a) cheap if you don’t get them or b) anti-social if you do. I think you guys know which choice I went with. Oh, come on, not because I’m cheap, because I’m social. And when the whole image of King Tut is that headdress thing, and that is even what they are advertising it with, it is a bit disappointing when that thing is nowhere to be seen.
Also went bowling on Saturday. Much better deal than King Tut. Ten bucks all you can bowl, though you do have to deal with a lot more hipsters than you have to deal with at Tut (I think me and the Sofa Kingdom guys were the only people there without tattoos, ironic eyewear, and painted on jeans). More importantly, I bowled my best game in years, a 133. I was pretty psyched about that. And, having matured in the last 6 months, there were no a) keg stands or b) temper tantrums. A very grown up performance by me.
In sports, I will be talking about the Phils this afternoon. And my fantasy team played against Carson Palmer this week, and he outscored my entire team.
ALSO: Will you people freaking vote already? Seriously, only 47 votes, and 11 of those are Steve O. voting for himself.
Bowling on Saturday
Well, the Mission 300 crew is back at it; after all the mission for a 300 has thus far been a failure, though there has been a lot of fun in trying to get the perfect game. Anyways, bowling in South Philly on Saturday night, and all you can drink for $10? Easily the best deal in town. And I know how cheap you people are (not me. I’ll be arriving at the bowling alley after ordering a “Biggie Size” meal at Le Bec Fin). If you wanna guarantee a spot, click here and order from our friends over at Badminton Stamps. Tix online are $10, they’re $15 at the door. Details are as follows:
St. Monica’s Parish

10 p.m.-???
