Priorities? who needs 'em.......

i used to live in philadelphia. it was an ok city. nothing special as far as i was concerned. i had lived in better cities. it was run by a corrupt mayor who is now the corrupt governor of this wonderful state.
seems philly has a bit of a problem. seems people are being killed at a level seen only in baghdad these days. 129 people so far this year if i can believe what i read. sounds like a great place to live. well, the city is finally getting off its ass and doing something. its shutting down all the psychics. wa wa what. i'm sorry, i must have misunderstood, did you say psychics shoes? why yes i did. it seems in this time of crisis someone alerted the city to an obscure state law banning fortune-telling "for gain or lucre".
now i used to refer to philly as "new york light" and i guess they took offense to that and really ramped up their efforts to move ahead of them in something but dont they have bigger fish to fry than the psychics. isnt this something you go after when everything else is going good. in the big picture of crime the psychics rank somewhere between prostitutes and jaywalkers. ok, so sometimes a bad psychic rips off some schmuck for his or hers life savings but they were going to lose that anyway. some asshole was going to call them selling stock or collecting for the police benevolent association or they were going to send it to some poor woman in africa and split her husbands money 30/70. you see what i'm getting at? if you cant solve the problem at least make it look like your doing something...no matter how stupid it may be.

hey it works for our president......


all right kids , back to work. this is shoes..over and out........
