Patch asked our readers for love stories on Valentine's Day and Kathleen wrote to tell us about her best friend – her husband of 42 years, Cliff.
"I know we are OLD, but we are still best buddies and Valentines," wrote Kathleen Levering. This year, Kathleen and her husband, Cliff, celebrated their 42nd Valentine's Day together as a married couple with two sons and four grandkids.

Patch asked our readers for love stories on Valentine's Day and Angela couldn't wait to tell us about her pair of men – Brian and little Jaxon.
Angela says a picture is worth a thousand words. That's why she sent us this photo series of her love story – a picture of her and Brian dating, their engagement picture, a wedding picture and a picture of the happy couple expecting their first child. "My husband and I both work in the Emergency Medical Services field. I was a volunteer with a local ambulance company and he had just gotten hired there as a paid EMT," wrote Angela.

Within a week, the pair were on their first date – Applebee's in East Norriton. They've been inseparable ever since. "Brian proposed on July…

By the end of the month, Bob had proposed – before they'd even met in person! She, of course, accepted. "We met for the first time in November," wrote Janie.

Theater Professor Domenick Scudera blasts the fast-food chain with a dose of acerbic humor.
Ever since Chik-fil-A President Dan Cathy proclaimed that the fast-food chain is supportive of the biblical definition of marriage, social networks across the web have been awash in arguments from both sides of the debate. Now, a local voice has chimed in on the matter, as Domenick Scudera, a theater professor at Ursinus College, has firmly stated his opposition to the chain in a recent update to his blog on the Huffington Post. "I ate at a Chick-fil-A restaurant the other day and my life was transformed," said Scudera, in a post dated July 19. "You see, at Chick-fil-A you get so much more than mouthwatering, delicious fast food. In addition to chicken, biscuits and fries, you also get a whopping helping of evangelism." Near the beginning …
