face palm moment in front of the brickette on route 100.

The other day I posted one West Whiteland was putting up the NO PARKING signs on Route 100. It’s pretty simple: it’s not about depriving small businesses of anything, it’s common sense and safety.

(Besides if you own three or four other bars, are you still a “small business”?)

Anyway, the amount of ridiculous commentary from what can only be described as a great intelligentsia blaming it all on me (of course), when all I’ve done is write about it, made me think well some will just ignore the signage. Of course, human nature, dictates it would be sooner rather than later note the photo above. I understand they were ticketed.

But for these people, no parking will always be for other people.

The “No Parking” signs are
pretty hard to miss

So I’m sure soon as I hit publish on this post the comments will all start again about me being on American and horrible etc. People? I don’t work for West Whiteland Township. I don’t work for West Whiteland Township. Police. I don’t work for the Pennsylvania department of transportation, either.

And interestingly enough, the types of comments always being left about this and people wonder why middle school kids are harassing and torturing teachers on TikTok? Yep, but I am sure someone will blame me for that too since it is always easier to blame the blogger or whomever thinks your comments are ridiculous, right?

But back to The Brickette. This bar if they wanted to come to some kind of an arrangement for satellite parking and a shuttle/valet service on these super busy nights. Even if it’s as busy as this every night, they could still come up with something, they are choosing not to.

And for the residents on Sorber Drive behind The Brickette, I don’t believe you are in West Whiteland Township. I believe you are in West Goshen Township which means you have to go to your township and speak up at a public meeting and ask them to do something about the parking. But don’t hold your breath, West Goshen isn’t proactive for residents, are they?

Now I am going to ask a basic thing about The Brickette. What is their actual capacity? I ask because there was an article in the Daily Local they were getting ready to open.

Honky Tonk Brickette Lounge reopens in West Whiteland

WEST WHITELAND — With a nod to the past, and a two-step leap into the future, the classic Texas-style Honky Tonk joint called the Brickette Lounge, is back.

Historically, the Brickette Lounge, at 1339 Pottstown Pike, leaned country, with weekly line dancing, live music and DJs. All that will return.

Temporarily closed in July, the “Brick” is leaning even further to all things Texas, with the addition of two massive stick-fired BBQ pits built from decommissioned 1,000 gallon propane tanks.

The menu will be fairly simple with six meats, all cooked over oak and sold by the  pound, along with six sides. As the smell of cooking BBQ wafts over the new patio, with the addition of new picnic tables and two seater tables outside, the game corn hole can be enjoyed. A custom fabricated fire pit will give visitors a chance to congregate and watch the sun set.

The interior is decorated with vintage beer signs, lots of neon, pool tables and a 1940s antique shuffle board table.

While the Brickette Lounge no longer sells breakfast, the new owners proudly display on a wall a menu from 1963…The Brick reopened Friday night. 3 West Hospitality also owns the Square Bar and Slow Hand restaurants, in West Chester.

The honky tonk can seat 38 at the bar and has approximately 70 seats overall.

So what is the capacity here altogether? And please *note* before everybody jumps down my throat I am not saying they are over capacity because I am not saying that. I am only asking what the entire capacity of the place is? Does the number of parking spaces available match capacity?

I think the reason I’m asking about the capacity is perhaps that is even more of an argument given the success of the business that they spring for valet or remote parking with a shuttle?

Anyway, that is all on this for today.

Aesop says if you park where it says “No Parking” you will get a ticket. That has nothing to do with “hurting” a small business so some people need to grow up.

And does anyone care?

I just can’t believe this is happening in Chester County.

I’m not adding any commentary to this. Listen to her. As she says on her page all of the time, “you be the judge.”

live from willistown, it’s the rumor mill!

Posted on by

Faster than the Pony Express! Faster than a speeding car down Warren Avenue, it’s time for the Sunday morning rumor mill in Willistown.

At 5:30 AM this morning, yes on a Sunday no less, the neighbors of Laurel Circle were awakened from their weekend slumber by a noisy rooster and kind of like nails on a chalkboard with deep ridges at this point, right?

So the rumor around Willistown this morning is the subsequent and lovely generosity of the two cool farming and agricultural supervisors.

The rumor is that they will adopt the notorious and extremely loud rooster to give a residential neighborhood a break and isn’t that fabulous? After all they have the acreage right? And farms where farm animals belong?

Aren’t they just awesome for their generosity of spirit? Maybe they will adopt not just the rooster but the bakers dozen or whatever of goats including unneutered billy goats, a manure pile, big ass rats, etc?

But alas… that is just a rumor and if you believed this deliberately sarcastic post, consider yourself punked. Sadly they seem to be rooster blind in Willistown or don’t want to deal with rooster mommy do they? It’s like they can’t see it is a residential neighborhood WITH NO ACTUAL FARMS IN THEM, right?

But Willistown PD did come out and the rooster mommy was given a new warning, wasn’t she? That much is not a rumor is it? (The rooster truth shall set you free or something like that and all, right?)

Sign me keeping it real with roosters for two years. And that street? Always has the messed up crazy stuff doesn’t it?

Willistown could fix this, but they choose not to.

No it’s not a garage sale.

All the white noise machines in the world won’t fix this problem but zoning corrections would, but hey Willistown always gets hoisted by their own petard by their zoning hiccups, right?

Happy Sunday and cock a doodle do.

when did carnivals stop being family fun?

The Exton Square Mall carnival for spring 2024 is over barely after it began. Ruined by gangs of marauding kids who also tried to wreak havoc at Round 1 Bowling and Arcade and the now creepy dying mall as well.

https://6abc.com/post/good-time-amusements-carnival-outside-exton-square-mall-canceled-after-unruly-crowd-assault-caught-on-video/14804519/

These kids were so bad that I am told West Whiteland PD called in an assist from other municipalities. There is also an unconfirmed report of a police officer being struck. That is horrible and UNACCEPTABLE behavior.

From last evening

Then at another carnival not so far away, a shooting. Again, teenagers.

https://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/16-year-old-killed-shooting-carnival-concord-mall/3856275/

What is wrong with this world? Fairs and carnivals are for fun, making happy memories and now they are becoming obsolete because of crime.

The Exton carnival had it’s permit revoked – the carnival is canceled. If you know something, saw something, please let the police know. Also if you have photos or videos, they also would be helpful.

when sock puppets show their feminine side.

Posted on by

I always love when sock puppets post in random places asking about moi. So “Laura Madden” doll, what’s your question?

So sock puppet Laura is talking about private messages? Obviously I guess someone is having and serving tea at my expense, which I can’t control. I leave the clown car to other people like sock puppets.

Interestingly enough you can’t spell much better than the “psychotherapist” can you?

Coincidence or sock puppet?

Showing a feminine side? Who’s your “friend” you are being so valiant for?

Gosh honey why not just come to the source? But you can’t because yours is a fake account, isn’t it?

And Main Line Community how is that post even keeping with your page? Not sure what your page is about anyway?

And again with the group of it all. Chester County Ramblings is a blog, this blog. This blog has a Facebook page, it’s not a group.

So…. sock puppet “Laura Madden” is being a true blue girlfriend to someone who is not on Facebook, yet apparently gave them things on Facebook? Claims she is real and not just sent to throw shade? And she says that this post is unhinged and batshit crazy? Oh and she is the definition of normal for stirring the pot?

So is she real or is she sock puppet? Maybe she’s both?

Oy vey. Also, it’s not like I’m the only one that questions this person or follows the weirdness on the Google reviews am I? I honestly never knew that someone could buy reviews, but apparently like on Amazon it’s a thing.

And I’m also not a public figure nor have I said, nor pretended to be nor do I ever want to be an influencer which is polar opposite of good old what’s his name and Berwyn? But I actually have real friends that are not among the hoards of popcorn eaters watching the drama in a sub par group which exists solely as shameless narcissistic self promotion, right?

So I am glad that sock puppet is showing her feminine side, aren’t you? What’s next posting a photo of me in a hospital gown while I was going through breast cancer surgery and treatment? Oh wait…someone already did that.

Lordy what a world. The nouveau Main Line is riding the cray cray.

Cheers! It’s AMAZING to be middle aged and ever so titillating! 🤣

Kiss 💋 kiss 💋

life….people…etcetera
it’s called sock puppetry.

well hello tredyffrin- that’s some college kegger in mount pleasant…

Posted on by

Tredyffrin Township likes to ignore their panhandle, especially Mount Pleasant. You see, if they ignore this area, they can pretend that there aren’t off-campus college student keggers all of the time. This is an area overrun by off-campus student housing and quite a few student housing slumlords.

In blue tarp city in Mount Pleasant, which is what the college students here do to shield themselves from the neighbors while throwing keggers, although the neighbors have no choice but to listen to them, watch them pee in the street, watch them throw up, watch them leave, trash all over, etc.

This latest kegger started receiving people late this morning.

So I thought it was just the right thing to do to remind Tredyffrin Township that between the predatory ugly new development that is sitting unsold and the off campus student housing and their parties, they are quite literally ignoring and forgetting the residents.
