The bridges with lit, the roads were newly paved, palm trees planted but still a city showing decay. Rockets on roofs, police at church, Rays season may be the one that raises the Trop's roof...
Not since Henry Plant made Tampa what it is today has the City been in the Nation's headlines. Sure the "Plant" railroad to the port is gone as well as the Hotels in the Bay, but Bayshore Blvd. sure looks nice. Bring it on RNC! We are all waiting
After a few cold adult beverages this afternoon with my neighbor the talk turned to war and American society. My neighbor is a very nice guy, with a high rank at the AFB, and after some .50cal ammo boxes were put in my trash by accident I had to ask what the hell he did. Don't worry, he didn't tell but the ammo box makes a great tool box! Just Saying!

The night is growing into that dark mass of fear that overtakes a persons soul. The oceans waves beat the same sound over & over, like a soundtrack of a clock, Tic Tock, Tic Tock. Over & Over again the waves hit the sand pushing it forward and then taking it back. Life can be the same way, you move a few steps forward but you lose a bit with each step. You lose touch with your High School Friends when you go to College, you lose some of your College Friends when you get a Real Job and after you get married you lose your friends at the bar and the hot number you always "hooked up" with every other friday. But you are making progress you have been told. The money you earn the more toys you buy. It would be better in some cases to just let it all go and remember your early days in life. The days when you only cared about playing outside & snow days which cancelled school for the day. Too many times we all forget about those days, yes there are some who never forget them but many of those folks never more forward at all. You know the type, still driving a 1975 Pacer, living with their parents and still working at the store as a stock clerk. That darn drug test just keeps me from getting promoted to head stock clerk...way to dream big!! Good Luck, Hit it hard. No wonder why our McJobs only pay Min. wage with employees like that you could get a fry guy for life.
It was nice that the U.S.A. Volleyball decided not to show up in the Gold Medal Match. The power of the Amazon women of Brazil were just too much. Our girls started out strong, kicking ass in the 1st match, but we could hold on. Hell the ladies of Korea put up a better fight against Japan then our ladies did. It was still a nice showing by the US squad. Enjoy the sights & sounds of the Olympic games girls and make sure you use one of those condoms that were given to the Olympic Village. Safety First!!
Medal Count-We're Kicking China's ass!! Screw the Russians, those folks in China have been giving it to us like the hillbilly gave it to Ned Beatty in Deliverance. Good Job Boys & Girls, the American Gov't can't thank you enough.
