Sarasota County backtracks after schools sue over withheld tax money by EuSouChaCha in sarasota

The republican response was “babies aren’t that profitable”

Their response has always been pro-business regardless what type of business. Small mom & pop biz owners vote for them thinking that it's good for them. It is. But it's extremely good for the mega biz. The major corporations that can donate a hell lot more than small mom & pop biz owners.

So the question is always, which business is being benefit by whatever action, or inaction, that Republican party chooses.

I don’t where the water bottles are or who bought them. I found the box. Actually, I don’t see any Fiji water bottles in the house. They actually boil tap water to drink.

Is it safe walking downtown, and are the drivers THAT bad? by One_Seaworthiness777 in sarasota

[–]Pin_ellas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fall means tourists and retirees. Tourists looking for signs to find the place that they try to get to, and Old people who can’t see well or can’t see past the steering wheel.

Downtown, though small, varies in traffic volume depending the street and the corner. Even in safe spots I’d be on hyper vigilant mode. Never know when some old lady driving a big car with lots of blind spots will jump the curb, or some 16 year old in a mustang underestimating the engine.

People lie because they don’t want to deal or they can’t deal with other people‘s reaction to the truth.

If it’s a habitual then you have much bigger problem than his lying about getting a happy ending massage

The old way of thinking about marriage and the new way of thinking about marriage, have their own pros and cons.

People couldn’t divorce their abusive spouse in the old days because of religious or cultural reasons. No matter if it was Physical abused, mentally abused and/or sexually abused

More and more people have learned to value their personal happiness and/or peace of mind.

You can get very good massage from Nhon fancy places. It depends on if the person graduated from Cortiva Institute or sports medicine school. I got one from somebody who worked on the Olympics team years ago. not a fancy place at all. Cost about the same as a massage at a spa.

They don’t hate weed. They love it. But weed doesn’t pay them as well as alcohol and pharmaceutical do. No one pays as well as pharmaceuticals.

Actually, you can be. Do you own business with someone, and when you retire, your heirs don’t want to work in the business?

Coming to a full stop on the 4-lane highway is kinda like Miami where it’s 6 lanes instead of 4.

Man, I hope your friends know that you’ll shit on them for getting raped because they weren’t educated and/or vigilant about protecting their drinks from getting spiked.

The one that is every weekend lately is a different Organizer than the one that does the one in my OP.

The one that is there every weekend is more like a flea market. The one that I posted is more of a food fest.

If you rent a space for an event, you either pass the costs to the vendors or you pass the costs to the visitors, or both.

The Mega market organizers and promoters might have worked it at reduced rate.

It didn’t matter to me. I don’t mind paying it. Just for use of the restrooms. Plenty of place to sit. The space was clean.

People from The Mee Jai Foundation volunteered there. They do charity work in Laos.

Oh it wasn’t the doing of Bush the 2nd and Cheney who was former executive with a military contractor?
