let's talk about wholeys fish market. its in the strip. they get hella fish and have folks cutting that poo poo up right on the floor. smells like gross fish guts in the front room but they have a cool ceiling train that runs along a track

you can get a fresh fried fish sandwich in the back and have a cool kitchen stuff shop upstairs. you can get a lot of cool poo poo here. all the pittsburgh grandmas buy their wigilia orange roughy here. its a good spot

prestogeorge is full of cool poo poo like fresh pasta and tons of roasted-on-the-spot coffee beans and teas and fuckin euro cookies and poo poo. its awesome.

the kicker however is the old dude outside the door with the 1900s peanut roaster. you wanna buy a bag of fresh hot shelled peanuts from that dude. crack a couple on the way to your car

Are the Pirates on their way to being good again like they were at the turn of the 90s?

i really feel last year's run was the golden chance. but they ran into another unstoppable in the wild card game. first madbum, then arrietta. madbum was once quoted saying 'if we beat the pirates in the WC, we win the world series.' he was right

The Phillies won 102 games in 2011 and have been a garbage bag full of piss and poo poo ever since. Luckily, we aren't the Phillies.

cliff lee making the jump from the indians to the phillies was a Real Bad move. there could have been a pirates/indians WS.

do you get cheap penguins tickets or was it just pirates? I assume since they're doing well tickets are hard to come by

pirates bleacher seats are always cheap and they offer new ticket plans this season which are very reasonable. pens games are expensive but they offer deep discounts to students and sometimes the pens players come out after practice and share pizza with the students waiting in line for tickets

Is it true that Pittsburgh is where folks started removing "to be" from clauses, so that it becomes "needs fixed?"

yes. also chicagoans and bostonians try to steal the idea of the 'pittsburgh parking chair' after big snows because they're insecure.

Spak Brothers in Friendship has very good sandwiches much like Primanti's. I miss the Bloomfield Bridge Tavern for beer and pierogis, and Conflict Kitchen, and mussels at Point Brugge.

I'll be rallying other ex-pats to watch Opening Day in New York, and can't wait to be home in May. I'd shoot someone for Pamela's in the morning - split sweet and savory, blueberry hot cakes with corned beef hash and eggs.
