just say Merry Christmas. 99% of the people reading this blog probably celebrate Christmas so can we just forget the political correctness?

Here's to looking for a better year for P-Ville in '09. Let's see less traffic, more stores, and more prosperity!

Ditto to the previous poster (not that 2008 was such a bad year)

Let's see:
1) more ethnic restaurants (sorry, Irish pubs don't count, no offense)
2) less drug dealers
3) more access to public transit

where are all these drug dealers? I keep hearing about prostitutes and dealers but I never see them. Am I just that blind/ignorant? Are we talking about the downtown area?

Not that Im looking to score or anything. HA

When I was growing up, "Happy Holidays" referred to the two holidays of Christmas and New Year's because you didn't see some people again until after those holidays were over (when you returned from your break from school or work).

Several Local Businesses Closing Up Shop

Over the next couple of months, three local businesses will be closing their doors. On Saturday, February 16th, Polka Dots will be closing their store at 246 Bridge Street. The shop, a women's clothing boutique, opened nearly two and a half years ago but has recently found business slow. --- Originally, (owner Susan) Randels said that the store was doing well, but that the momentum could not keep up. "The things that sold in Paoli didn't sell in Phoenixville," she said, adding that some customers thought that the store was too expensive or the sizing did not go high enough (size 12 being the highest size sold). "We tried everything." Randels also said that parking was an issue for many of her customers who could either not find spaces or did not feel safe parking behind the store. --- Polka Dots remains open until the 16th, with hours on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. The phone number is 610-935-5914.
