State of Sunshine Gets Pub on TBO’s Political Safari
June 29, 2006 | Leave a Comment
Lauria Fiorilli caught my post on Sandy Murman’s new commercial in her political blog — Political Safari — on the TBO.com site.
Storms made more waves on the wider Internet last year during her barrage of anti-gay-pride measures, but local bloggers haven’t taken their eyes off of her since. Here are some thoughts on the [...]

“We can’t keep building lanes” — Florida DOT Rep
June 27, 2006 | Leave a Comment
As you might have surmised from my few posts — transportation is a MAJOR issue for me.
The St. Petersburg Times has a good story today about the effort of the Florida Department of Transportation to get ahead of our explosive growth.
Forecasts predict the region’s population will nearly double in the next 40 years . To [...]

State of Sunshine Gets Pub on O’Blog
June 27, 2006 | Leave a Comment
A third blog has joined the chorus welcoming me to the blogosphere. Bob O’Malley writes about Orlando (and central Florida) happenings over at O’Blog.
Where there is birth, there must be death. And vice versa. So as we say goodbye to Out in Left Field*, we welcome The State of Sunshine**, a [...]

Murman v Storms — the TV War has begun
June 27, 2006 | Leave a Comment
I saw my first Sandy Murman commercial tonight. Looks like she bought BrightHouse cable for this (although I am not in that district). [The commercial is available in WMV format on Sandy's website .]
Here is the text:
Opening shot of Sandy talking to Seniors — “Sandy Murman has been a strong voice for [...]

State of Sunshine Gets Pub on St Petersblog
June 26, 2006 | Leave a Comment
Peter Schorch at St. Petersblog has joined the welcome wagon, with more-than-kind words about this new venture of mine:
He’s been such a frequent poster on this blog that I didn’t even notice that Jim Johnson set up his own blog called State of Sunshine. Even if he didn’t offer such compelling commentary, I would have [...]

Michael Hussey over at the Pushing Rope blog has welcomed me to the blogosphere:
Jim Johnson is one of the best commenters on this blog. He has started if own weblog called The State of Sunshine. He’s off to a good start. His post on the county mayor petition is worth checking out.

A quick update on the light rail issue
June 24, 2006 | Leave a Comment
The Tampa Rail blog has a great post about the Tampa Bay Partnership’s call for action to create the Tampa Bay Regional Transportation Authority.
The Partnership posted a full page ad on the last day of the 2006 Legislative Session in an effort to rally support for a bill that would create a regional authority. [...]

My Take on Net Neutrality
June 22, 2006 | Leave a Comment
NewsHour had a great debate tonight about the ongoing debate in Washington on the future of the Internet.
At first blush, the position of Google, Amazon, Microsoft, eBay, and others seems logical. Efforts by the oligopoly that controls the bulk of the Internet, phone companies and cable television providers, in an effort to maximize profits could [...]

The Pitch for the County Mayor Petition
June 21, 2006 | 2 Comments
Okay. So I was walking out of the relatively-new Target store at Dale Mabry and 275 this evening, and was approached by a dedicated “volunteer” for Taking Back Hillsborough County Political Committee. I must say he was making a strong effort. I am paraphrasing here, but it went something like this:

GOP Selection Committee to Visit Tampa
June 21, 2006 | Leave a Comment
Our lovely City of Tampa, a finalist for the 2008 Republican National Convention, will be screened this August. The following release from the Tampa Bay Convention and Visitors Bureau was passed along to me (emphasis added):
Extraordinary events require extraordinary effort. This community has an extraordinary opportunity to showcase itself as a [...]
