VIVIAN CAMILLE - SEDUCTIVE DANCE SPECIALIST & PHILLY PREMIER POLE DANCE - NSFW

I met Vivian last week at the Cheerleaders Car Wash for Charity benefiting City of Hope. But she recognized me as Philly Chit Chat the guy who photographed & blogged about the Delilah's Diamond G-String. She choreographed the number that helped Angela and the team win. This video was too hot to handle the first go around. but now I am comfortable enough to show it, I hope you are too.



Here's a video of Vivian on the pole. She teaches classes in Center City. It looks like a pretty good work out, don't you think? Check her out at www.poledancelessons.com



Soon you'll be able to do this:

Gigi restaurant in Old City

The food at Gigi's was delicious. They had some mean sliders that really should be on their regular menu. They were bigger than a White Castle Burger.

Niki & Phil LaGrossa (co-owner of Gigi's) are gonna be parents in December - Congrats!!

Philadelphia area women Meredith Scardino wins writing Emmy for one of my Fav shows The Colbert Report

A proud mom, Anne Scardino wrote me on Saturday night to tell me her daughter:
Meredith Scardino, Radnor High School grad, won a second Emmy Saturday night
for Best Writing in a Variety Show, along with the writers of the Colbert
Report. Scardino is the sole woman writer for the show, and won in 2008 in
the same category. The Creative Arts Emmy Awards took place in LA.



Monday Nights Colbert Report: See if you can pick out MeredithThe Colbert Show Writers



Another fav show: The Cash Cab with Caroline Waxler, Meredith Scardino, Liz Levin

Anne also tells me that Meredith began her writing career when he the fourth grade at Ithan Elementary, she won a writing contest for Delaware County schools with her story "Ghost in the Guestroom." Also in the fourth grade, she took a Saturday cartoon class at Harcum, where she wrote a comic strip "The Nosers," a family with prolific noses. Meredith also played tennis and lacrosse at Radnor and was captain of the women's lacrosse team at Cornell.
I know I am her mother, but she is quite a combo of beauty and brains.

SWEET ENDING IS NOW OPEN IN THE GAYBORHOOD WITH SWEET HOURS

Sweet Ending is open now at 13th & Walnut Streets
Pretty sweet hours too
10AM til Midnite Sunday thru Thursday (Not as large or with ample seating, as Tutti Frutti yogurt down the street, but well lit especially if you need to wake up for that long drive home after a night out partying, these lights just might do the trick. Also works well for seasonal disorder syndrome. I'll be stopping by a lot in December and January.)
Friday & Saturday til 2AM (No doubt they will learn to regret these hours on this notoriously heavily hanging out corner. How long til a couple of drunken queens have an ice cream fight in the middle of the place at 1:30AM)
