You know those spam messages you see on just about every Internet message board promising $7,000 a month for just a few hours work? Well, this is soooo much better than that.

The Philadelphia 76ers are so bad that the word 'bad' has sought an injunction asking a new word be created to describe them.

On Wednesday morning, a four-story building in Philadelphia collapsed unexpectedly, trapping some people under the rubble and injuring others.

Talk about a good deed being punished. This summer, Angela Prattis has been handing out daily free lunches to about 60 kids in her Chester, PA neighborhood. These meals are the same ones they would be getting if their school was in session. Now she faces a fine of $600 a day for doing so because she doesn’t have a variance to serve food in a residential neighborhood.

It seems as if New Orleans has a long way to go to clean up after Hurricane Katrina. New Orleans, where Sunday mornings on Bourbon Street look like a giant frat house after a kegger,  has been crowned with the dubious honor of America’s dirtiest city in a new survey.

Jack Rappaport, an assistant professor of management at La Salle University in Philadelphia, allegedly hired three strippers to perform at a student event. Students paid $150 to attend the symposium, for which they received school credit. Willing students received lap dances from the strippers, as did Rappaport.
