Leftovers: Here, Kitty, Kitty

• Someone dumped a bunch of purebred kittens in South Jersey, and now these wittle wittle guys are up for adoption! Yes, this was basically just an excuse to post a photo of a kitty, to shush the people who complain I'm only about puppies.

• Albert Yee posts about PhillyCarShare's pimp our ride contest, where people can get to design a wrap that'll be going around one of the cars for a month. A commenter on the post: "Did no-one in your office think that using the word 'pimp' to mean 'prettify' might be offensive to those campaigning for 'pimp' not to mean 'bring a woman into the country illegally, make her sell sex to pay off debt bondage, hook her on drugs, make her see ten or twenty men a night, and brutalise her to keep her compliant'?" Uh, wait, wouldn't using "pimp" to mean "prettify" be not having it mean that long definition she came up with? Right? [dragonballyee]

• Phils great Johnny Callison died today at the age of 67. The story also notes that Callison merchandise will be in hot demand any day now. Indeed. [KYW 1060]

• Hello! David Grasso is proposing a $315 million complex that includes a Whole Foods and a five-star hotel! (And another store, possibly a major electronics chain.) The Whole Foods is supposed to be "taking the experience of coming to a food store to a new level." Boy, how can you wait? [Inky]

• The Rock Paper Scissors Keystone Classic is this Saturday, with a top prize of $850! Eight-hundred-and-fifty bucks, for playing Rock Paper Scissors! C'mon, you know you want to. [Northeast RPS Champs]
