News to reuse (post super-long weekend version): Hillary hilarity to ensue in Pa. and on the bus is worse than under the bus

[ ] Suspicious packages found in BucksCo this a.m. (CBS3)
[ ] Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) is scheduled to be in Scranton today and at Temple University in Philadelphia tomorrow. You’ll probably get the best live coverage of today’s speech here.
Despite any errant claims, Clinton IS NOT FROM Scranton (and Mike Munchak Way IS NOT a new diet and exercise plan she will propose for universal health care).
[ ] Dept. of Missed this Friday: President of Eagles Nation Obama supporter Pa. congressman Patrick J. Murphy, D-8, said he prefers his Clinton sans vagina. (Intelligencer)
“If Bill Clinton was on the ticket, I’d probably vote for Bill Clinton,” Murphy said Friday, just minutes before Philadelphia’s ward leaders decided not to endorse either Obama or Clinton. “Bill Clinton is not on the ticket.”
Oh, and Barack you, Hillary! (AP via phillyBurbs)
[ ] Nod to phillyBurbs’ Dave Ralis for putting together an easy to use guide where voters can compare the presidential candidates’ positions on various issues. (phillyBurbs)
[ ] Daily News scribe Will Bunch assembled a list of Pa.’s top 10 presidential election moments (Daily News)
It’s an interesting list, but it totally needs highlights if it’s going to have that Best Damn Elections List vibe…maybe a clip of Abe Lincoln accepting John C. Fremont’s vice presidential offer or…some hot chicks with “I heart Jefferson” buttons outside the Real World house in Olde City in 1800.
[ ] A Pennsbury School District parent claimed her child has been subjected to several incidents and near-incidents as a passenger of a Pennsbury school bus. (Courier Times)
From the story:
On Monday morning, Cody Emery bumped his head against the window as his school bus hit another parked bus while arriving at William Penn Middle School.
On Tuesday, the same bus driver nearly hit a moving car while driving kids home from school. …
… (Cody’s mom, Jody Emery) complained that buses have collided with stop signs, slammed on the brakes while kids were standing up and have cut off other cars on the road. Emery said that a bus even ran over a dog.
To hell with that Philly Parking Authority reality TV show; get some cameras on these buses. “Next week on Buses of Death, the drivers play fourth-grader Frogger on Lincoln Highway…”
[ ] City Paper allows you to use March Madness-style brackets to decide everything: Philly beer, Philly band, Philly icon, BYOB, which transsexual ad of theirs you’d most consider responding to…
Please just go to their site and click a bunch of times.
[ ] Some people are still without electricity because of Saturday’s storm. (Intelligencer)
