I could totally get fired for this, but ... props to Philebrity

Just wanted to say ... forgive me, mine employer ... thanks to Philebrity.

Last night's Philebrity Awards Show at the Trocadero & Xmas Pageant was awesome – everything about it, but especially getting a chance to meet some of the faces behind the names. (Free Library Director Siobhan Reardon shook. my. hand.)

In one of those "The moral arc of the universe is long, but it bends towards justice" moments, host Joey Sweeney even uttered the words "City Paper," before releasing a dove into the night sky.

But if you made it out, you already know how awesome it was, and if you didn't, you probably don't care to hear it now. So I'll leave it at that.

But yes, thanks, Philebrity. Good on ya.

We'll let it slide, this time. Don't do it again. Thanks, Management.

You mean Philebrity is capable of more than publishing pedantic posts that wreak of superficial snark and lack any kind of intelligent criticism of the city other than "This place sucks, look how stupid this place is, look how stupid everyone but us and the folks we hang out with are?"



Well, wonders never cease.
