Fightin Phils!!

It's that time again ladies and gents. September baseball heats up as the Phillies try to win the Division for the 2nd year in a row. As usual, we got hot and the NL East Mets are choking. Sound familiar? I have to hand it to the Fightin Phils, for sweeping the NL wildcard leaders the Brewers to take a hold of the Wild Card only to jump to the Divisional Leaders. Those Fightin Phils are home wreckers. No not because Pat the bat slept with my girlfriend but after a good ole' South Philly beating the Brewers fired their manager with 12 games left in the season. After a solid proformance from newbie Happ the Phils beat up on the Braves last night to win their 6th game in a row which beats their previous streak of 5 this season. Keep it boys of summer and Philly watch as the Phils go for 7 in a row tonight against the Braves.

Babe of the week.

I wanted to start something new here on SillyPhilly, I felt there was news, sports, and some funny shit on here but not enough hotties. So I like to introduce the Babe of the week; Eva Mendes. She has been my dream Babe for quite some time now and felt to start with her would be appropriate. I would love for you to send me some photos of your tasty Babes. They can be your girlfriend, dream girlfriend, or of just a Babe you know.

MNF

So the Cowboys and Eagles took the field last night in the most remarkable Monday night game I can remember. With a combination of 77 points and 7 lead changes and a total of 1,165 all purpose yards, this game was a thrill to watch and kept me in suspense til the final minutes. I have to hand it to my Boys of Broad st. They played one hell of a game and if they could just take back the bad hand off to Westbrook in the....well forget that, we still got a chance to win against them in our House. Donovan is back, Westbrook is at his prime, and rookies like Jackson make me feel like this is our year again. Look for the Eagles to bounce back from this loss and go on a tear starting with the Steelers week three, at the link.

Fat Tax

I took a walk today to the local deli and as I was waiting for my bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich I noticed the papers. On the front cover of the Daily News in big black font it read "Fat Tax?"

Thats right ladies and gentlemen Pennsylvania could be implementing this law within the near future. Think they won't? Think again, it has all ready taken place in Japan and in the state of Alabama.

Alabama recently gave its 37,527 overweight government employees a year to slim down and shape up or be prepared to fork over $25 a month for health insurance that otherwise would be free. To my big bro in Alabama; "I told you to watch that gut."

I found the front page so intriguing I bought the Daily News which is unusual since I get my news watching TV on the couch with a bag of potato chips. Unfortunately they forgot to put the newspaper in the bag when they should have forgotten the Bacon, Egg, and Cheese sandwich.

Unemployment

Let me tell you about Unemployment Compensation. It's awesome. The PA labor department is going to give me a weekly check for almost what I was making before getting "let go" at my previous job. I believe in hard work, having a job, and not accepting hand outs, but maybe its time for a little break or vacation if you will, all on the tab of the government. After all, isn't this why we pay taxes?

Teacher Arrested

NEW YORK -- A public school teacher was arrested today at John F. Kennedy International Airport as he attempted to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a set square, a slide rule and a calculator.

At a morning press conference, the Attorney General said he believes the man is a member of the notorious Al-gebra movement.

He did not identify the man, who has been charged by the FBI with carrying weapons of math instruction. 'Al-gebra is a problem for us', the Attorney General said. 'They desire solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in search of absolute values.'

They use secret code names like 'X' and 'Y' and refer to themselves as 'unknowns', but we have determined that they belong to a common denominator of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country.

As the Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say, 'There are 3 sides to every triangle'.

When asked to comment on the arrest, President Bush said, 'If God had wanted us to have better weapons of math instruction, he would have given us more fingers and toes.'

White House aides told reporters they could not recall a more intelligent or profound statement by the President
