When human bones were found near Tampa this week at a construction site, the first thing police thought was this could be a potential crime scene.
It turns out that archaeologists determined say the bones are more than 100 years old. The Hillsborough County Medical Examiner’s Office and state archaeologists will take over to better determine […]

I could go on for pages about what I think of men who pay for sex, cheat on their wives, and think they deserve to use tax-payer money to have illicit sex in Washington hotel rooms. But, I will save that for the thousands of other indignant bloggers out there – and there indeed thousands.
What […]

Rumor has it that John McCain is considering Florida Governor Charlie Crist for the Vice President slot on his election ticket. Although McCain will not confirm if he has even thought about one candidate or another, it is pretty common knowledge that McCain would have flat out lost Florida if it had not been for […]

It’s too late for this particular primary, but I finally got to the point where I cannot see the good of being registered as an independent in Florida. I was unable to vote in the presidential primary, despite the fact that I was quite caught up in the race, did a lot of research, and […]

It’s been quite some time since there was slavery in Florida, but about 140 years it existed all over the state. Now there are members of the state Legislature that say it is time to apologize. It is still not known if the plan will be approved.
The history of slavery in Florida goes all the […]

I’m so angry I cannot even talk about this next topic at length.
The Democratic Party decided they did not need Florida’s votes in the presidential primaries. Of course, a few voters got out and voted anyway, but many did not bother, as they were assured their votes would not count,
Now that Clinton and Obama are […]

Today is yet another day for presidential primaries, for both the Democrats and the Republicans. While the Republican contest still seems interesting and logical I have to say that I am sick to death of hearing about Clinton vs. Obama.

When we stayed at one of the Disney hotels last weekend, I had no doubt that the housekeeping staff did a good enough job. The bathroom was cleaner than most hotel bathrooms. Still, I took precautions and removed the bedspread from the bed before we slept. We covered ourselves with the hotel sheets and a […]

When I lived in the DC suburbs, Manassas, Virginia was sort of viewed as the backwoods part of Northern Virginia. We went there for El Taco and sometimes to buy fresh bratwurst at this awesome German met market that is now a Mexican market.
You have to give it to the lawmakers in Manassas, though. The […]

The entire state of Florida is engulfed in darkness as I write this. Well, not the entire state. If it were, I would not be blogging. I actually have power in my house, which is a downright miracle in light of the fact that the nuclear power stations going offline near Miami have now impacted […]
