Blog Intent

OK, the original intent for this blog was to be a newsworthy yet humerous look at the world of Media Borough, their politics, foibles, fun and etc. The goal at one time was to make a version similar to Philadelphia Will Do, one of the Areas better (not to mention humerous) blogs. However, with work and life as it is, I never had the time to do so. So, in its place, we have a refugee camp.

Feel free to post in the comments section, I may give thread privliges (we'll see), and if you have recommendations for posting, feel free to hit me up at

We'll get into my email adress origins in another post...

All's quiet on the Spencerblog front

Checked Spencerblog earlier, looks like the only things coming through are the notices from dave diano and myself inviting the rest of the group to our own blogs for the time being. Speaking of such, the link of the Day is David Diano's Blog at http://padelcowatch.blogspot.com/. Dave is doing the same as I am, opening the blog to the Spencerblog refugees. As I stated on his blog, it doesn't matter where we all eventually migrate to, so long as we have a place where we can continue to debate. I have no plans for moderating comments (Maybe deleting if they're too offensive) but moderating is out - it kills our flow.

I have come up with a conspiracy theory concerning this move - maybe gil is attempting to flush out the old blood and replace us with new blog readers. Similar to Lorne Michaels flushing out the Chris Farley's, Adam Sandlers and Mike Myers of SNL for the Cheri Oteri's, Will Ferrel's and Chris Kattan's.

Which one is randal?

Spencerblog - Resistance is Futile


Since I don't ever use this blog, I figured I'd post what's being censored at the Delco-Famous Spencerblog.


Today, Gil stated that all posts will be subject to comment monitoring before being added to the blog or left off. In his words, "From now on, all comments will now be monitored for civility and being on topic. " SO... staying on Top, I decided to post one as "PC POLICE" twice to see what happens:


PC POLICE said...
WE HAVE TAKEN OVER THIS BLOG.
YOU WILL BE ASSIMILATED.
RESISTANCE IS FUTILE.


Wouldn't you know it was censored? On topic, open expression, fair criticism of the new procedure. Gil must have enjoyed the Olympics in Beijing a little too much, he's taking on their government's mannerisms!



If anyone makes their way over to this "massively busy and on-topic" blog, feel free to comment away, we're not hiding!
