Driberally tonight

Drinking Liberally is a weekly social gathering where progressives talk politics and get to know one another. In Center City Philadelphia, we meet on Tuesday nights at José Pistola's upstairs bar, where there are drink specials from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. And the more we tip the bartender, the more frequently he hands out free dishes of chips and dips. I hope to see you there!

José Pistola's is at 263 South 15th Street (15th and Spruce) in Center City, near the Kimmel Center and the Academy of Music. There's a parking garage across the street, but as filthy liberal hippies naturally we suggest public transit; both SEPTA and PATCO will get you there in two shakes of a lamb's tail.

This week's topic: Memorial Day has come and gone. You are now permitted to wear white clothes, open-toed shoes, and boater hats.

No City Council candidate tonight at Driberally

Day late and a dollar short -- actually there won't be a City Council candidate at Driberally tonight, because DeMarco withdrew his candidacy a little over a week ago, though I only just heard. But! We'll still have beer specials and plenty of good company.

Come for the beer, stay for the check.

This week's topic: A Q & A with Democratic City Council (2nd District) candidate Richard C. DeMarco, Esq. He'll be speaking and then taking questions from about 7:00. We aren't endorsing Mr. DeMarco -- we don't endorse anybody, and we're not sure that a candidate would welcome our endorsement anyway -- but we do welcome non-recruiting visits, like this one, from candidates.

This week's topic: Doin' the math to see if a CSA share works for me this year. The latest number of Grid magazine (kludgey online version) profiles several choices in southeastern Pennsylvania. Do you subscribe to a CSA? Do you hate it when you get five pounds of kale for a few weeks in a row but only two mealy apples in September? Or do you see it as a way to seriously enrich your diet with seasonal produce while challenging yourself in the kitchen?

This week's topic: It's an unholy union of violations of the Ten Commandments, the hearsay rule, and § 1983 when a priest in Florida gets the local constabulary to stop a parishioner and issue her a trespassing citation because someone told the priest that the parishioner's daughter tossed a piece of Eucharist onto the parking lot pavement. In Pennsylvania, it would be a bar exam fact pattern; in Florida, it's actual news. In my house, it's an occasion to use one of my favorite exclamations: Jesus, Mary, Joseph, and John the Baptist on a pogo stick!
