Good Times - The Investigation
Is Michael working for the Cuban government?
Michael begins doing research for a school term paper about the Communist party. But instead of heading to the public library, Michael writes a few letters of inquiry to the Cuban government. The results are both swift and terrible: Michael and the rest of the Evans family are targeted as a likely "security risk" by the FBI.

Jim Hightower On FSU
For only $1.5 million,(Charles) Koch bought a big chunk of the economics department of Florida State University. His donation gives him control of a new "academic" program at this public institution to indoctrinate students in his self-serving political theories. The billionaire gets to screen all applicants, veto any he deems insufficiently ideological, and sign off on all hires. Also, the department head must submit yearly reports to Koch about the faculty's speeches, publications, and classes, and he evaluates the faculty based on "objectives" that he sets.

Melanie Ware From Mississippi
An article and photographs about hookah smoking in the Mitchell High School yearbook has drawn the ire of a parent who says the feature is inappropriate for a yearbook. (Melanie) Ware, who has lived in Pasco County for four years, said she attended public schools in her native Mississippi and wants to support the public schools here. Mitchell High's decision to feature hookah in the yearbook is making her rethink that view, though.here

The Secret Garden Of SOG City
One of the first things I did when I got back from the Persian Gulf War was to kill off the lawn, shit-can the mower, and mulch both the front and back yards. My next move entailed planting flowers, vegetables, fruit trees, and colorful ornamentals. Going green was one of the best decisions I ever made.Now, while the mowers are fuming around the neighborhood,
I just kick back in the shade and toss back a couple of ice cold brewskis.

Jacksonville Voters Put Tampa To Shame
The big news out of a Jacksonville this morning is that it's very possible a black Democrat will win the mayor's race, though the race is officially too close to call. But more interesting to this reporter from a Tampa-centric aspect is the voter participation. The turnout, according to the Supervisor of Elections Jerry Holland, was 36.81 percent. In Tampa last March in the race between Rose Ferlita and Bob Buckhorn, it was a paltry 22.3 percent.more
