Jealous in Philly? Dissing Stevie and Phoenix...really now!

[glitter_fades]

Did anyone in Philly see this article yesterday that disses Stevie and Phoenix? Phoenix will soon replace Philly as the 5th largest city in the nation and it looks like somebody isn't happy about that. Dan Russel of the Philadelphia Daily News wrote a column that points out some bad facts about Phoenix, but he also injects some rude personal opinions:

Facts:

#1 in high school drop outs
#1 in stolen cars
#1 in unsolved rapes
#1 in delayed airline flights
#1 in percentage of kids without health insurance

Rude opinions:

Phoenix has the worst cultural attractions in America (?...not that bad)
Hottest bar features live bull riding (and that would be...?...not where I go!)
It is the home of mediocrity...examples: Lynda Carter, Wayne Newton, David Spade, Stevie Nicks

This guy's just jealous. If you want to read his whole rant go here: http://www.philly.com/mld/dailynews/6262456.htm
