It's a nice sunny day here in Philadelphia Pennsylvania. I attempted to go to the sunrise close to being on time but of my able to do it but got caught up and

The 7 Bus

eating breakfast switching cartons for my leaking milk container etc. I was reading

My Second Bus This 

Facebook as well and somebody was talking about dating somebody who works for Comcast. She's young  but it was pretty funny. It's one of the comments:

"You go out for coffee and you talk for a few minutes. He disappears to the bathroom for 20 minutes only to be replaced by a different person who asks you all the same lame questions again. It goes on like that for a few hours until you finally jump up, curse him out and swear off dating forever."

Comcast deserves the mockery. It is a monopoly so they don't really care. They've got the politicians bought off. They just suck😡

Well got to go its 7:45 am time to really go. Well I went to the locker room and got their delectable coffee today yes I need one of my fill your pants off work. It was pretty amusing. I have about 12 to 15

56th Street SEPTA Station

late getting little things done. On another note the Papal is a month away. Here is  an article I think you

We are Getting There

should read about SEPTA & the Pope's visit. SEPTA General Manager  

Joe Casey is very optimistic. He states

Across From City Hall

that SEPTA can get you close to the Pope. Read it for yourself. In other news outside my head, Former 76'ers star Darryl Dawkins died today

One of My Faves to Photograph

at the age of 58.. Remember thunder dunks etc. They left no details of how he died. I guess his publicist

Cheesecake Factory

will release it. I did not realize it until my friend Melissa told me. The coffee place right across the street from 1420. It's called La Pain Quotidien. It's actually very nice in here. You can't put your own milk in your coffee

but I got over that pretty quickly. It's very relaxed not crowded at all. Also there is very nicely appointed room for sitting and listening to Jazz.

La Pain Quotidien.

I'm definitely sold on this place. Why then went to group a little bit late but it was a nice group. I left around 8:15 PM. I should have left earlier supposed to be there at 8:30 PM. I have go to go to Hazel Avenue in West Philly. To set up my dog
