SPRINGTIME IN PHILLY

It was another normal Spring day in Philly yesterday. We received two months worth of rain in 24 hours. Most of the region got 5 to 7 inches of rain.

And the Flyers got knocked out of the playoffs without winning the Stanley Cup for the 39th straight year. I was 10 years old when I skipped school to go to the Flyers Stanley Cup parade. I don’t think I”ll be alive for the next one.

Cool pictures. Your drought is over!

Admin,
Bruins vs Canadians tonight baby. Should be some good hockey. Maybe we won’t blow our chance at a second Stanley Cup in the last few years again, they need to catch up to the Patriots and Red Sox this century. Sorry to rub it in. Oh wait no I’m not.
Bob.

When we were kids, we used to call water “wawa”, how ironic. What kind of business goes by the name WaWa? Geez……dumbasses…..

Cry me a river — St. Louis, Vancouver and Buffalo have never won a Stanley Cup. Wait your fucking turn.

I was walking along the beach when I came across a lamp partially buried in the sand.

I picked up the lamp and gave it a rub. A genie appeared and told me I had been granted one wish.

I thought for a moment and said, “I want to live forever.”

“Sorry,” said the genie, “I’m not allowed to grant eternal life.”

“OK, then, I want to die after Vancouver wins the Stanley Cup”

“You sneaky little bastard,” said the genie…

Hey, just think of how much crap and corruption has been washed out of town.

Nah, the really bad shit is safely perched above the high water mark. Too bad..
