Put your bathing suits on. This year, water temperatures are warmer than normal topping at nearly 70 degrees.

No wonder Philadelphians have a reputation for being surly. Turns out Brotherly Love is the only kind of lovin' we get. According to a survey conducted by Trojan Condoms, Philadelphians only have sex an average of 73 times a year. That ties us with Dallas and Chicago for the second-lowest rate of sexual activity in the country. To make matters worse, Philadelphians are only 64% satisfied with what action we do get.

It's amazing how much people love the shore. When Memorial Day comes, all you have to do is turn on the local news to see flocks of people crowding the AC Expressway. When you think about it, however, the shore is just a relaxed seaside town with restaurants and shops. Granted some of the towns boast beautiful views of the ocean and breathtaking sunsets. But, for the price of a week in Ocean City, NJ, a family could see the Leaning Tower of Pisa or take a tour of the Mediterranean. But not us. We want our Mack and Manco's and our Kohr Brother's.

Nothing quite says summer like the foods we eat: ice cream, water ice, pizza, hot dogs, hamburgers, watermelon. And what better time to eat those foods than July 4th.

Screen tees, message tees, whatever you want to call them - you either love 'em or hate 'em. The shore is no better place to stock up on some of your favorite t-shirts, or poke fun of the ones you'd never be caught dead in. Wildwood is especially famous for having its fair share of ridiculous t-shirts. Save Britney, O so Textual, and Pale is the New Tan, are just some of the ones you'll see this year. And, it appears that some of the new t-shirts are even taking a political stance, according to this article from the Inquirer. Go make a fashion statement, and have a great weekend down the shore.

...Monday night's fireworks at Penn's Landing. Enjoy!
