[billhilly]

The city of brotherly love, indeed. Sisterly too, I presume.

[dasboot]

[no dems]

COME TO PHILLY, "Where the Liberty Bell aint the only crack open to the public!"

As long as they chose PA, why Philly and not Hershey? They love the Hershey highway. Fudgepackers and such.

The Philly Chamber of Commerce has many direct e-mail links. I sent the same message to them all. Bottom line? (No pun intended.) No money from my family or my business accociates.

I can see the ads now:

"Get your ass to Philly!"

[Old Professer]

Aw, $hit, and here I was looking for an excuse to visit Philadephia.

"Philadelphia, America's Anus"

A fitting motto for the city, for far more reasons than just this story. The first words of Philly babies are not 'momma' or 'dada', but rather salty 4-letter ones. Urine and feces are the official smells of downtown Philly. where it takes 6 union brothers 2 weeks to change a single lightbulb.

What a dump.

But there are a few good freepers left in that hellhole. They must feel like Lot.

My post, which I'm pretty proud of, from an earlier thread***

As the scene plays out, a narrator says: "Philadelphia and its countryside has a long history of making everyone feel welcome and free." The word Philadelphia is shown in a rainbow of colors.

Oh, sure! Just ask a sports fan from any other city! Philly is well known as the home of the biggest sports fan jagoffs in the country. We all know it. And if any of you Philly Freepers want to try to run your smack here, I'll have to get back to you because I'm too busy cheering on the Bolts in the Stanley Cup finals while the Flyers are busy painting their toenails.

By the way, I'll be too busy once footbal season starts too, because the Eagles will once again get emasculated by the Bucs.

But, you can always pass on a tip to Andy Reed-- I hear Kordell Stewart is a free agent, and available...

"Grab a little higher next time, big boy!

I don't get your joke... The entire porn industry is estimated @ 4 to 10bln...
(not including the black market...)

Is the media really saying that the gay market is a 50bln dollar market. Just because gays buy gas/food/clothes like the rest of us doesn't make them a special market. If so why isn't the city advertising for straight tourists. We would be a trillion dollar market.

Filthodelphia. I used to have to travel to filthy a few times a month, NEVER found a clean hotel room, didn't matter how much my company paid... Actually considered bringing my own sheets after I found...

While they're at it, might as well go ahead and change the name from Philadelphia to Sodom.
