1. You know that thing I said about maybe after such and such a date, I would find more time? Yeah, that didn’t happen. As it does every year, that springing forward shit kicked my ass.
2. So I gotta ask:
Is there any other kind of St. Pat’s celebration other than [...]

You Burghers far and wide that don’t live here any longer, you should know that today is totally a sled riding day. Snow snow snow. And of course, that means the local media is salivating that there’s weather going on.
You also are aware of how witty and downright funny many of my readers are, but [...]

From the comments to my post where I called the people that let ten sled dogs live in their house with them FREAKS!
PITTGIRL,
AS A FORMER PITT CHEERLEADER, AND WIFE OF A STEELER, I REALLY LIKED YOU JUST BECAUSE OF YOUR “NAME”. UNFORTUNATELY, I’VE REALIZED THAT YOU ARE A JUDGEMENTAL BITCH. YOU SHOULD KNOW TO NEVER [...]

Looks like someone in the Mayor’s office made use of Microsoft Word’s thesaurus.
From Lukey’s January Neighborhood Message:
As a city, we as residents have always met challenges together, and as a city we will face the future together. Let us continue, as the Promise advises, to “dream big and work hard” as we stride forward to [...]

1. A sign I noticed as I approached Oakland via the Boulevard of the Allies immediately after my SUV hit a pothole so big that it would have swallowed a Chevy Aveo whole and still had room left over for a Geo Metro:
This is a State Maintained Road
THANK YOU, ED RENDELL!
2. You [...]

DOWNTIME AGAIN?!?! I am so sorry. Woy is working with the site host to figure out what the hell is going on. Thanks for being patient with it.
1. Two snowy days in a row here in the Burgh. I’m sure any minute now KDKA will let us know that the world is ending.
2. You guys [...]

1. The courts have ruled that Penn State must disclose the salary of Joe Pa. Is it inconceivable that he’s possibly making a million dollars a year? Or do you think it’s more in the $750k area?

Unofficial results showed Mr. Ravenstahl winning by 63 percent to 35 percent.
“Thank you Pittsburgh!” he shouted to a crowd of fans at the Westin Convention Center Hotel. Responding to someone in the crowd, he said, “I love you, too.”
Fans? Not “supporters” or “backers” or “people forcefully ushered in from the street by Yarone Zober?” [...]

93.7 The Zone is no more.
That sound you don’t hear is the sound of nobody at all falling over in shock over this news development.
The rumor is that B94 is coming back.
[thud]
Now THAT is shocking.
Shut up, you guys, I love B94.
B94 was my favorite station as a pre-teen and teenager, and it sucked when they [...]
