Agreed Klaus. As for the dumpster behind Joey's..it's been there for a decade, why is it a problem? Plus there is a dumpster behind the establishment anyways.

Written on Guest Commentary: Let’s get the real facts, our citizens deserve it:

in response to Seawaller:

Here are the facts:

Single Family Residence using 1.667 thousands gal/month goes from $69.20 to $75.99 (+9.8%)

Condo with its own meter using 1.667 thousands gal/month goes from $64.79 to $47.22 (-27.10%)

Condo with master meter using 1.667 thousands gal/month goes from $46.17 to $47.02 (+.06%)

This is quite a difference among people all using the same water volume.

Spin that at your next meeting appearance.

Voted as "Crime act of the year 2012" on Marco Island. Our keystone cops will be happy to have one single case. By the way. I hear Joey Pizza got an official apologies from city council and police chief. Nothing in the press until now.

You would be right. MN snuck it in as a picture of Don Hunter yesterday on an article. Once you clicked it, it would redirect to where you could read a very short paragraph about it. Sneaky Sneaky

AND turning left onto Saturn Ct from Collier Blvd is not a "illegal" turn. What a fat pos this guy is

Written on Marco ex-cop still hopes to get job back despite careless driving conviction:

In an accident like this, EMS would have taken blood to determine if drugs/alcohol played any part in this. I'll assume this wasnt done bc he's a cop. $68K salary...no wonder our police budget is in the millions.

Good food, free beer (bc I sat on the boat and drank mine at the dock) and a hell of a crowd. Mullet Festival never fails to entertain! Might want to get a band thats a little more in sync next year though. It was good to see Queen Mary's cottage thighs again too! Gotta love her!

Don't live on that part of the island, but they do look chitty.
