Stogie Recommends
The Lovely Bones
Is a 2009 American drama film directed by Peter Jackson. The film stars Saoirse Ronan as Susie Salmon, alongside Mark Wahlberg, Rachel Weisz, Susan Sarandon, Amanda Michalka and Stanley Tucci.
"My name is Salmon, like the fish; first name Susie. I was 14 years old when I was murdered on December 6, 1973. I was here for a moment and then I was gone. I wish you all a long and happy life."
Don't listen to the critics, great film.

One For The Road
Time For Total Recall In Florida
It has been suggested by some disgruntled citizens of the State of Florida that Rick Scott bought the office of governor with his great big gobs of cash and false promises - what some might term fraudulent promises. It may be too soon to discuss impeachment (an option that remains on the table),
but State Rep. Rick Kriseman, D-St. Petersburg, has filed a bill that would allow voters to recall state legislators or state office holders, including the governor.
