A Taste of South Philly

Welcome to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, a state i've already wrecked talking about by referencing the Philly "Phanatic" and Donovan McNabb a few weeks back. What's left now, you ask? Well, plenty. For starters, here's the flag:


Hey, i know the the artist who designed that one! I think he might have been behind that prestigious art movement that swept the nation with the introduction of drugs powerful enough to make people want something like this:


on their living room wall. And look at it for a month straight. And ask it for help making a grilled cheese sandwich. And tell everybody about the John Bonham solo that changed their life forever. And forget to vote.

The other thing i can't help thinking about is the bad sandwich chain i like to visit when i'm feeling like John Candy, or stuck at the mall. It's called SteakEscape and their motto is "A Taste of South Philly!" This is despite the fact that they are based out of Ohio. This makes me like SteakEscape.

And the fact that they used to honor 10% off for students, but then revoked the offer. And i feel like i'm pioneering my own independent research study of America's problems every time i try to enjoy a stupid sandwich there. In other, far better news, today averylongwalk was named America's favorite blog. Easier than i'd ever imagined.
