The road to hell is paved with solitaire diamond rings. After wringing every second of debauchery out of youth, many opt to do the meet-marry-mate thing, now standard operating procedure amongst certain groups of urban thirtysomethings. What could possibly go wrong? Oh, just about everything. Maybe you realize you don’t really like each other much once the flow of dopamine slows. Maybe he doesn’t help with the kid enough, or someone slipped on a banana peel and landed in a juicy vat of hot adulterous sex. There’s an infinite variety of ways in which relationships explode. Sadly, there’s really only one way to work it out: Council for Relationships . CFR, with offices throughout the Delaware Valley, has a trained cartel of counselors who have seen it all. You won’t shock them when you finally confess your many, many faults and mistakes. Just go already. Better yet, they offer communication courses designed to give you the skillz to pay the emotional billz before messing up the relationship in the first place. Remember the second golden rule: you can be right, or you can be married.

“iSportacus? Seriously? Phillies Nation is way better for Phillies news. Take for example the most recent post at Phillies Nation on the signing of Brad Wilkerson. iSportacus didn't even post this. Oh, but they did post an article on their love of curling and a photo of Jayson Werth's shaggy dome. Thank God they're on top of the important Phillies news!”

“Sorry we didn't capture all of the excitement of the Brad Wilkerson signing. The next time the Phillies sign a career .247 hitter who used to play for the Nationals, we will be sure to do an 8 part essay highlighting that players career.
That being said, I kind of get the impression that this PW was highlighting some things that people have never heard of. Of course, Phillies Nation is a tremendous site. So are Beerleaguer and The Fightins. But I think everybody already knows about them. I think we happen to do a pretty decent job of covering the Phils, too, once the season starts, and it was cool of PW to maybe help expose us to some people who have never heard of our site before. I hope you'll give us a chance once the Phils season starts. I think you'll dig it. And we promise to be Philadelphia's leader in Brad Wilkerson news.”
