Surprising lovely town- sort of like Hogwarts with liquor stores. Dumbledorable. <\/em>Randy sent more photos of Philly as well:\u00c2\u00a0 Philly 1<\/a> Philly 2<\/a> Philly 3<\/a>\r\n\r\n(WARNING:\u00c2\u00a0 Some spoilers):\u00c2\u00a0 The Reading Eagle<\/a> newspaper in Reading, PA printed a review of Craig’s show in their city on Tuesday night.\r\n\r\n\"\"<\/a>Craig and Randy appeared on Danny Bonaduce<\/strong>‘s Philadelphia radio show Wednesday morning.\u00c2\u00a0 Thanks to the RSA’s @ScottishConan<\/strong> who found the link to the podcast<\/a>, as well as a brief appearance on Philly’s local CBS television station<\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0 Randy tweeted a still picture as well:\u00c2\u00a0 Douche and Bag. http:\/\/yfrog.com\/j0sgkej<\/a><\/em>\r\n\r\nGeoff Petersen<\/strong> is continuing his obsession with wearing a meat suit:\u00c2\u00a0 @grantimahara<\/a> is right about Gagawear. I see New Jersey butchers caution against wearing red meat. In Jersey I guess it’s about orange.
