The blogosphere was all about teenage flash mobs this week (the one that did happen on South Street and the one that didn't happen at 40th and Market Streets). Apparently it made the cover of the New York Times...awesome. Philly Clout brought us the inspiring response by Mayor Nutter to take care of your damn kids, while Grub Street took a closer look at how these incidents will affect the South Street restaurant scene.

On behalf of all the Philadelphia renters out there, we'd like to extend a hearty thank-you to this city's homeowners for taking the tax increase on the chin for us. Good lookin' out, buddies.

Philebrity holds its tongue after receiving an email forward from the South Philly Tea Baggers following the big weekend of health care reform.

SEPTA Watch gives you a good summary of the proposed fare increases coming up soon and the laundry list of deferred maintenance projects that this price increase will allegedly address.

Local blog Meal Ticket goes international when it reports that the world's hottest pepper (according to the Guinness Book of World Records) is being militarized by the Indian government for making tear gas and hand grenades.

With Passover and Easter converging, Restaurant Club offers some local culinary specials for both occasions. Plus, Meal Ticket has a weekend event that will surely have those who gave up seafood for Lent saying, "Aw, shucks!"

On the all-beef front, Not sure why Aramark wants to launch a new specialty hot dog at Citizens Bank Park, but hey, we'll try them at Bridget Foy's.

The Phield is actually pitting all Phillies-related blogs against each other, March Madness style! Vote for your favorites today.

The Fightins brings us your Phillies-related gaffe for the week. If only it happened at a home game during the regular season, then we could have created a Proofreading Philly entry! And we never thought we'd be excited to get back to McFadden's at CBP, but 700 Level refreshed our memory. Too bad we won't find Charlie Manuel eating there anytime soon.

We're not surprised Shmitten Kitten has very particular taste in nerds. Hell, she made a Hackers reference in one of her posts, which is pretty damn cool.
