The RNC is Coming, the RNC is Coming

After spending a day walking the streets of Tampa it would seem that nothing big is coming in less than 30 days.  Sure, there are new trees were there were none and yes the city/county spent millions on Bayshore Blvd. instead of other roads in much, much more need of repair.  Other than that nothing, wait they are tearing up the Ice Palace to make remove for the Mitt's & Twitt's that will take a very large stage and speak to wary nation.  The one question that has not been addressed is the Homeless.  Where will they put the Homeless?  Gaslight Park, have you ever been there?  Homeless central!  The Faith Kitchen is out of a home, it was a soup kitchen for our areas Homeless now our Cities neediest are once again without a safe place.  But there is a bit of Good News, "Romneyville" has popped up in Downtown, look for the Pink Tents.  The Homeless have settled there, thanks to someone "Renting" a lot behind a business and the Republicans are not happy.  The City Code enforcement folks have told the group they must leave by today...But the Residents of Romneyville have a contract with the Land Owner...We shall see what happens.

During the RNC I suggest that we all hold Occupy your Backyard events!  Yes, grab some cold beers and invite your neighbors!  What fun you can have, that jerk of a next door neighbor, the one who lets his dog take a dump in your yard only to blame the neighbor from the other side of the neighborhood, ask him to join ya.  Start a convo about Guns and the bible and watch the sparks fly.  Me, I'm having a few Penn State Alumni & Catholic Priest over for a cookout and Nick at Night Marathon.  Not only am I have fun at someone else expense but saving the children of my neighborhood.
