- Non-story of the Week winner.
- "I always bring stuff back," explained the St. Petersburg Housing Authority member who was caught not attending conference sessions recently. Like sample shampoos, little soaps, sewing kits, etc.
- Just the Dept of Homeland Security keeping us safe, that's all.
- The King of Political Instincts strikes again.
- The Florida Suncoast extension: $34 million a mile and growing. Deeson reports.
- Didn't know that even Carl Hiassen has fled Miami to move to … Vero Beach???
- A more-detailed-than-the-dailies account of yesterday's Legislative Delegation meeting at which the city-county squabble continued playing out. State of Sunshine reports.
- Lavender = man boobs.
- Best comment yet on the whole Boston freaks out thing.
