On the Origin of Blog

I reached 1,000 hits the other day which I think is cool I guess. I was going to explain this blog in the beginning but I did not do that I just started blogging, so maybe I will try to do that now. The title, Terminally Illadel refers to two things: 1) terminally ill tyler, shortened to t-ill was a nickname I was given during my underclass years on the tennis team. 2) "illadel" or "illadelph" is a term for the city of bro love, Philadelphia, perhaps coined by The Roots with the album Illadelph Halflife, but really they probably heard it from someone else. Terminally Illadel would be a merger, a synthesis of phrases, with the purpose of characterizing the city as well, in this way as terminally ill. The city is terminally ill because its yearly loss of population, it is one of the few cities in the country that is actually losing people (the others are like Detroit and Baltimore, i know) and a city losing people is sick and dying and so I say, terminally ill. Philadelphia is losing people because of its myriad problems, such as violence, but I will save that entry for later. This blog was going to be more political but I have gotten less political. I just don't know that it matters that much anymore. Politics still affect everyone but there is very little access normal people have to the system and nationally, holding political opinions is useless. And besides there's no good races except for Specter/Sestak which is still ages away. Anyhow I will write a lot of stuff on this blog, but the basic, basic theme is that of a fucked up city, what goes on here, and my take on other stuff. I hope you like it and have liked it, and omg Sarah Palin...
