Honestly, does Lower Merion Township think the residents are stupid?

Check out the agenda for which we will all need super powers to survive and it's crucial we attend:

Building & Planning Committee (Special)
Date: 11/19/2008 7:45 PM
Location: Township Administration Bldg - 2nd Floor Board Room
75 East Lancaster Ave
Ardmore, Pennsylvania 19003-2323

PRELIMINARY LAND DEVELOPMENT PLAN
131-151 Rock Hill Road, Bala Cynwyd, SD# 3614, Ward 3.

...No not that it is one of the best places to live. So can it be said that while purportedly, Radnor Township has among the most stringent of student housing ordinances enacted by a previous iteration of the Board of Commissioners, that Radnor has the most lame enforcement?

What is up with all the racial incidents of late on college campuses in Pennsylvania? Lehigh, LaSalle, and St. Joseph's University?

What is wrong with people? Have we come so far in this country that we are about to crawl back into the deep dark hole of an uglier time? Is this the change we can look forward to? A country full of screwed up racists? Is this what they are teaching in college? Of course, to play devil's advocate are these incidents real, or have they been designed to draw attention to past issues at these schools?

2 universities probe racial incidents

I was reading this article in the Daily News and was thinking it was a routine expose prompted by former employees, and then I got to this one paragraph which bascially screams that the PENNSYLVANIA SPCA is abusing pets? Read this article yourself and you tell ME - I am excerpting the one section which disturbs me the most, but read the entire article, which is VERY long...

"Yikes" and "Double Yikes" is the best way to describe this whole scenario...drugs and guns... dude had a job with Haverford Township...OH MY...check out what Haverford Blog is saying too....

Honestly, these are very dumb "urban farmers", are they not? If you are going to call in a burglary, shouldn't they hide the illegal stuff?

Well tonight at the Radnor Board of Commissioners a corageous resident of Callanan Avenue in Rosemont (Garrett Hill, correct?) came forward to complain about 3 student residences on their street during public participation.

Now it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out which houses --- they are listed on Villanova University's magic list of Off Campus by Municipality/Township :

And one of the houses can be found on Cabrini's Off Campus Student Housing list:

http://www.cabrini.edu/assets/cabrini/ResLife/Off-CampusHousing.pdf

And that would be 241 Callanan Ave. ,245 Callanan Ave., and 249 Callanan Ave., right???

....just pick a municipality.

OK, not talking to the Inquirer for no reason -- check out this article....

Can Phillies fans save where Whitey rests in Gladwyne? What am I talking about?

Honestly, what is wrong with people? And what is with people we call "doctor" going nuts? First we have the good Dr. McFarland, A/K/A "Needles" McFarland and his Avalon dumping habit,now we have the case of Alan "Killer" Kushner, a Main Line Doctor who wanted his patients to bump off his ex? So basically, this chiropractor wanted to hire patients to kill his wife? Wow...nice people...read on:
