Maybe If the Slots Dispensed Books? 2

Brendan points out how Philadelphia, which is looking to close libraries, many in the city’s poorer neighborhoods to save the $8,000,000.00 they have been unable to collect from the Iggles, went to Uncle Sugar to request money for casino development.

And, ya know what? if the Iggles win a championship, I bet Philly will blow more than $8,000,000.00 on the parade.

    And no telling how much more will be paid, by various means, for all the damage done by the people “celebrating” the win. Just like after the baseball win.

    And, relatively speaking, that was pretty quiet.

    Relatively speaking.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
