I love Arturo's stuffed pork chop. But I've got to question the 1,000,000 number. If Arturo's was open every single day for 14 years, that means they've served an average of almost 200 stuffed pork chops a day. Maybe my math's wrong, but that's a whole lot of stuffed pork.

I'm not sure 30 miles is far enough out to sea. I'll have to check, but I think Coast Guard regulations are stricter than that when it comes to disposing of garbage.

After the election drubbing, I figured Mr. Hall would have taken his millions and gone back to Squaw Valley -- the one place on earth he was successful.

Leroy may be an old fleabag. But he's correct.

Only on Marco Island would an Interim Interim City Manager be necessary. Amazing. Don't know anything about Souza, but I am familiar with Portland, Maine -- snow removal is a joke, the mostly Green Party City Council has re-assessed and re-assessed so that people cannot afford astronomical property taxes, and the School Department last year overspent their budget by about $2 million. The search for the next City Manager should be national, but the last place in earth anyone should look for competent municipal management is Portland, Maine.

A mortgage broker and a realtor commenting on the state of the market -- talk about spin. There are currently 3,500 properties on the market on Marco Island. That doesn't include all those properties where owners have given up. Prices will continue to drop until they're 35% below peak, and then they'll move up again -- very slowly. It's not a bad time to buy, but better times for buyers are 12-24 months down the road.

I can't believe the losers haven't asked for a recount, filed suit, or appealed to the Supreme Court. I guess stomping feet and wailing will have to do for now.

I've owned on Marco Island since 1986, when I was 26, and I've always been worried that the curmudgeonly naysayers would ruin the island for those of us who plan to be here for another 20, 30, or 40 years. Hall & Co. should give up, pack up, and leave.

Ed,

Just admit it: you don't want to pay for sewage treatment on the island. You'd rather pour human waste into the ground where it can leech into wells and the Gulf of Mexico than pay for it to be treated properly. Future generations will undoubtedly be forced to pay the price, one way or the other, and you'll be long gone. At least have the guts to admit you don't care about that; you just don't want to part with your money now.
