If you hadn’t heard, today is National Bike to Work Day. This morning, Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter showed his support for bicycle commuting by joining a few dozen hardy cyclists in a ride from the Art Museum steps to City Hall. As you can see, he was sporting a stylish (and highly visible) rain jacket and smiling despite the rain. He even posed with [...]

Art Museum
Post by Ben Gilbert
Sunday morning is a great time to spend walking around the Philadelphia Museum of Art on the parkway, watching the sun rise and the early tour buses pull up to view our museums’ priceless works. Once in a great while, you’re treated to the sight of hundreds of people, young and old, women and men, moving simultaneously and holding positions few will ever take.

Every year, I receive a letter inviting me to attend my high school alumni breakfast. It’s been 10 years since I walked out with my diploma. School was entertaining, but it was also a bit awkward and I couldn’t wait to move on to the next chapter in my life. But hey, that was just high school.
Imagine getting an invitation from the alumni association of the institution where most of your time was spent behind bars. Not [...]

Tucked among the old-world charm of Rittenhouse Square are two violin shops that keep alive an art founded – well, in the old world.
William Moennig & Son first opened in Philadelphia in 1909 and the intimate shop, housed in a quaint rowhouse, both sells and repairs violins, violas and cellos. Dick Donovan, a partner in the firm, said the business has always catered to serious players and professionals – it counts Yo [...]

Tomorrow is National Bike to Work Day which suits me just fine, since I’ve never owned a car in my life. It was very easy to relate to Steve Carell in the 40 Year Old Virgin when he told his girlfriend that he had a bike, not a motorcycle, but a bicycle.
My two wheels have taken me all over Philly for more than 8 years. I never worry about gas, insurance or parking fees… all making [...]
