I went to the south annex today to renew my tags and there was a lady outside of the doors with a table and a bunch of paper on it and she yelled out at me, “Please come sign this petition to protect woman’s health care rights.”
With all the rain we have been having this summer on the Florida panhandle, I am giving serious consideration to building an ark!
Anyone who knows me knows that me building anything is a disaster waiting to happen. My failed work projects are legend.
I made a trip home to Illinois last month. My baggage from the airplane didn’t, kind of like the way the Dallas Cowboys never seem to make the Super Bowl anymore.
But that’s a column for another day.
It’s the most resilient project ever in Santa Rosa County and it has been in the making for 20 years.
If you ask yourself why the developers of Jubilee don’t give up it is because it is a project that could change the economic landscape of Pace and it a property they have invested in for 20 years.
These days, there seems to be a credulity gap between what people say and what they do.
The credulity gap to which I am referring is when a person or an institution champions an ideal but acts in a manner contrary to it. The technical term for this credulity gap is “an issue of plausibility.”
I really could have written this column with one emoji. You know the one where the person has the hand slapping the face.
That really would have covered all you need to know about the district set up for cross-country for the teams in this area.

Another issue that has been bubbling up is the Holley-Navarre Water System’s 2019-2020 policy which looks at commercial properties, what the property originally paid in tap fees, and what their current usage is, only to ask for impact fees –after the fact.
Who knew at some point in time we would be discussing sexually explicit books allowed in our school libraries? And yet, here we are.
At last week’s county commission meeting, citizens showed up (and some showed out) to proclaim their disgust at the books being allowed in the libraries across our school system.
It’s been maybe 20 years now since I covered a high school baseball championship series in another state. Some of the memories are a blur. Others are lost forever.
I’m pretty sure the team I covered won the title, but what I remember for certain is that it was a unique set up in that a best of three format was used to determine a champion.
The last few weeks of the Santa Rosa County Commissioners meetings have been quite the expletive-filled circus, thanks to the District 2 commissioner, James Calkins.
While being chastised by citizens and commissioners alike, he continues to grin, laugh and even double down on his comments. His remarks have angered people to the point of cursing at the podium during public forum.
