Let’s put Giving Tuesday and Taco Tuesday together to create one big, delicious example of bold-flavored generosity. But first, yesterday’s interesty bits.
A Tampa gun store was burglarized overnight. It seems guns aren’t safe even if they’re surrounded by other guns, and are in fact guns themselves. Tragic! Also, stop letting people put gun stores in buildings with big, smashable windows.
A Polk County “anti-government activist” and self-proclaimed sovereign citizen was arrested and charged with kidnapping and armed false imprisonment, after a woman who traveled to his compound to study his beliefs claimed she was held against her will. OK, so, there’s an anti-government compound near Polk City? Good to know, and also, why am I surprised again?
A man was arrested for trying to steal more than $1,500 in merchandise from a Brooksville Walmart. So, like, everything in there, then.
And finally, a 16-year-old Pasco girl is the only Florida dancer among 1600 from 32 countries headed to Germany to compete in the World Tap Championships. Congratulations Emma! Dancing is awesome, and people who pooh-pooh it are just jealous because they look like they just walked into a cobweb full of trapped bees when they dance.
