Philadelphia Photos

Well, I guess one of the nice things about losing a camera charger is that I can post old photos. Here's some of Philadelphia.


Temple's Center City Campus (TUCC) building.


The Ben Franklin Bridge.


And West Philly. I think this is near 46th and Market Streets.

Jesus is Scary

A postcard my grandfather owned. "Watch the eyes. They will suddenly open," reads the bottom.

I don't want to be around when they do.

In Philly, on the corner of 15th and South Streets is a delicious Mexican restaurant called Pico de Gallo. This is in the bathroom. He watches you as you poo.

And this is found at New York City's St. Patrick's Cathedral. Sort of looks like the postcard. Do his eyes also open? I didn't stay around long enough to find out.

See what I mean?

We Need Kendo!

There are lots of things I think the Philadelphia suburbs need.

Like a convenient public transportation system that won't take to you to Points C, D, E, F, G, H, I, and J before you hit Point B. Or coffee shops that aren't Starbucks. Or just fill in the blank. If you live in a suburb, you know what I'm talking about.

But what I think the suburbs are most seriously lacking is kendo dojos.

Is that too much to ask? There has to be a large audience who want to learn the ancient art of Japanese sword fighting. I can only hack away at my boyfriend with a wooden katana for so long before one of us loses an eye.

And if you need martial arts weapons, like those metal stick things Raphael from the Turtles uses or wooden katanas, try this place.

Elephants are cool.

Especially when they have people in their mouths.



Or can stand on little stools.





Paint pictures.



And just pretend this one isn't blurry.
