Word for the Day: LegiCamp



Florida Progressive Coalition

Kelly Benjamin Responds To Times Pick In District 6

Dear Times Editorial Board,
I can’t help but feel you’ve made a colossal mistake in your choice for the next Tampa City Councilmember in District 6 but everyone’s entitled to their own opinion and I won’t hold it against you. However, one thing struck me in your endorsement:

“Benjamin is unable to make a convincing argument for succeeding Miranda.”

Mayor Dave For Our Wonderful City Of Tampa

Dave's Imaginary Mayoral Platform
info

A Stogie Favorite, "Free bicycles for all. Working with various advocacy and charitable groups across the city I will establish a non-profit that focuses on giving bicycles to everyone.
The best way to reduce bicycle fatalities in Tampa is to
make them so common-place that it becomes second-nature for drivers to look out for cyclists."
I can't wait to see that...

A Case For My Favorite Beer

Yuengling
Besides being delicious, it is brewed here in Tampa. I bet those workers appreciate us drinking their beer. Anheuser-Busch dosn't brew beer here anymore. They are not even owned by an American company.

You are sending your money to Belgian and Brazil.
Yuengling is the oldest operating brewing company in the United States.
Help your neighbor keep his job. Drink Local.

For a complete list of local eateries visit Tampa Locavore.

Along with Armando Perez Jr., 34, also of Tampa
Are racing on Fletcher Ave and kill Robert J. Niebalec, of Temple Terrace, who was riding his bicycle east on Fletcher on the paved shoulder. How Sad!

"It has been my experience that the motorists are very aggressive and there is generally disrespect of bicyclists by motorists, What's sad is there is nothing inherently dangerous about riding a bicycle.
The mere act of riding a bicycle shouldn't cost you your life.
Unfortunately that is the case in the Tampa Bay area."......Alan Snel
