If Only I had Said "Morrisville is GOOD for business"

Remember when the Emperor decreed that he would not recommend business investment in Morrisville? We know the borough council backs up that view (remember Gateway?), but did you know that civilized communities know about and use the Pennsylvania Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program.

Giving back for June 3

FirstService Bank donated $8,050 to the Lower Bucks Family YMCA to support the YMCA's full- and half-day preschool programs and several programs for teenagers. FirstService is a division of Boyertown-based National Penn Bank, with branches in Warminster, Bristol, Middletown and Bensalem. The money was donated under the Pennsylvania Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program, which gives businesses tax credits for approved education-related contributions.

Freedom Credit Union of Warminster sponsored A.M. Kulp Elementary School's Reading Day, a community-wide literacy project held last month. Freedom's marketing coordinator, Cyndi Cohen, read to second graders at the Hatfield Township school, which is part of the North Penn School District. Freedom Credit Union, which has branches in Philadelphia, Warminster and Lansdale, has been a major sponsor of the event for three years.

Rita's Water Ice hopes to raise more than $580,000 for pediatric cancer research during its latest paper lemon promotion. All Rita's locations will sell paper lemons for $1 during June. Proceeds will go to the Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation. In two years, the Bensalem-based company has raised more than $1 million for the foundation, which is named after Alex Scott. She died of cancer in 2004.

I wonder if we can get funding for being the borough with the most, per capita:

Nail Salons
Smoke Shops
Chiropractors
B-B-Q restaurants (we're getting there)

Isn't that reward enough?

You left out the fireworks and lack of vision.

Maybe the fireworks caused the lack of vision. You can shoot your eye out with those things. Be careful!

You're right, you'll fall down, break your neck, catch pneumonia, put out your eye, and drown from cramps when swimming sooner than 30 minutes after eating.
