Picture
This is for typewriter people.

Remember when we had that term paper to write, and we’d place the paper in the spool, rack it ready to go…and freeze?

Or start, get one or two pages in, and realize what’s written so far is nonsense even to you?

8/30/2023

 
Picture
We focus today on our neighbors in Crystal River, Homosassa and Ozello.

I spent Wednesday in my cozy Inverness home looking at photos and videos of what Hurricane Idalia did to their Wednesday.

Oh man, here we go again.

Are your hatches battened down? Secured the lawn furniture? Buy enough gasoline to drive to the moon and back?

Picture
See that guy to my left? I’m confident there’d be no Just Wright Citrus without him.

In fact, I’m pretty confident there’d be no me without him.

Run for office? Who told you that?

8/24/2023

 
Picture
The familiar voice was of a trusted friend in shock.

“I’m floored right now,” the voicemail said. “I’m kind of speechless.”

And it went on from there.

“Mike, I am freaking out right now. You need to call me back!”​

Vote gains Ozello a glampground

8/22/2023

 
Picture
We're rolling out a writing style today borrowed from a national sports columnist.

It’s called the running diary and, while it works better for the Super Bowl or World Series Game 7, I always wanted to try it out at a county commission meeting.

Tuesday stuff not named Ozello on my mind:

Tough call on Ozello glampground

8/20/2023

 
Picture
Some opinions I should just keep to myself.

The one place that’s best for me to avert my eyes and cross the street, is any matter of zoning.
