R.I.P.Old Sarasota

This poster has told me to play in traffic, drink cyanide and now this.

Why do people allow themselves this kind of conduct here?

It's a sad world we live in these days when you cannot even have a conversation about a city without people wanting to insult you.

Bill Clintons, Little Red Book

Posted 07-31-2013 at 10:20 AM by Fortoggie

My friend had a used car lot two blocks from my business and every once in awhile I would stop in and have a cup of his bitter coffee. He always kept a couch and two chairs in the salesroom and you could, count on a bunch of good ol boys being there, chewing the fat.
The year was 1991 and Bill Clinton had just come on the national scene and for some reason he had captured their attention. Over on the end table I saw a stack of red books, each book was about a half inch thick. That caught...
