A CALL TO ACTION

The owners/ management team/ employees all had to go and get Hepatitis vaccine shots.
NOW it is a Time of Action for our community. The Hillsborough County Commissioners at the Thursday, January 24th Meeting in the Commissioners Meeting. They have asked Doctor Holt to appear and explain his side.

One House Down, by Gianna Russo

The candid poems in Gianna Russo’s One House Down are grounded in experiences of ambivalence and oneness, not unlike those we sometimes find in true love. Russo ruminates on the past and scrutinizes the present in her hometown of Tampa with honest affection, concern, anger and delight. She asks an essential question: How can we treasure a place whose history and values have sometimes supported injustice? And if those wrongs are still evident today—then what? With family roots in Tampa that go back over a century, Russo skillfully pursues an answer in these inventive, surprising poems.
Due out in October 2019. https://madvillepublishing.com/fall-2019-spring-2020/

You Just Can Not Make This Up!!!
One day a young group of 20ish South Tampa girls came to the balcony at Mary’s. Of course no one knew what to drink and were being a hand full. The last girl asked for a Corona beer. We were out and this is something that we really should have had. I told her that I would run and get it for her. Now as many of you know the balcony was over the side walk on 7th Ave. To get more beer I had to climb 8 steps, walk across the dining room, then thru the kitchen, thru the elevator shaft. The across the kitchen next door to the very north end on 8th Ave. 1 full block away. Turn around and do it all around again, back to 7th Ave. This is a 2 block run with stairs!!!! I gave her the beer and she took one sip tossed her hair and said “It’s not cold enough, what else can you make?” I pulled a napkin and handed it to her and said “here there is something in your hair.” She ran out with a fake scream. LOL
