		<title>do your research where health insurance is concerned</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Driving the streets of Tampa, you&#8217;ll notice three kinds of signs parked on street corners:

Some advertise homes for rent, or sweet deals on pre-foreclosure properties.
Other signs advertise jobs where you can make $1000 a week with no experience required.  (Yeah right!)
The third kind of sign offers cheap health insurance, presumably to people who don&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you grew up in the Tampa Bay area, there are names form local news that will stick with you forever.  Gail Sierens, Bob Hite, and Dick Fletcher, to name a few.  I&#8217;m sad to report that Dick Fletcher, the long time weatherman for WTSP, died yesterday (2/26/08) at the age of 65 [...]]]></description>

		<title>brad richards traded to dallas stars</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My husband just told me that Brad Richards, Tampa Bay Lighting center, was traded to the Dallas Stars this morning.  Brad was a great supporter of people in the Tampa Bay area, and an all around nice guy.  How do I know?  Well, we met him in 2005, and he was genuinely [...]]]></description>

The Davie, FL couple had been married only an hour when Kim passed out and died at the wedding.

		<title>come back to tampa, coach dungy!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Could it be true?  Could Sunday&#8217;s game have been the last for Tony Dungy as the coach of the Indianapolis Colts?  I can&#8217;t think of another coach who has been as loved in Tampa Bay as Tony Dungy was, and still is.  When it was announced that Dungy had enrolled his children [...]]]></description>

		<title>tampa neighborhood feud</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You&#8217;ve gotta love it when a neighborhood feud ends up being blogged.  These signs were taken this week in a Tampa neighborhood.  It seems that neighbor #1 decided to make it known that neighbor #2 was a former convict.  Neighbor #2 responded with a sign that read, &#8220;This is true. I was [...]]]></description>

		<title>tampa voyeurs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ladies, let me ask you a question.  When you take a shower, do you then proceed to walk around your house naked?  Do you undress and position yourself in front of windows?  Or do you make sure that you&#8217;re protected from the view of folks outside your home?
A Tampa man was arrested [...]]]></description>

		<title>table games are coming to tampa</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I read on a friend&#8217;s poker blog this morning that the Seminole Indians have made an agreement with the state of Florida that will allow blackjack &#038; baccarat to be played in Florida.  Currently, the Seminole Indians operate two such casinos, in Broward and Tampa, and both are booming with business.  Craps and [...]]]></description>

		<title>what&#8217;s the deal with the veteran&#8217;s expressway?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the past month, anytime I&#8217;ve had to take the Veteran&#8217;s Expressway into Tampa, towards the airport, I&#8217;ve had to divert off course.  Typically, the expressway begins to back up just before the Waters Avenue exit, and that makes sense, because 2 lanes branch out to 5 or 6 lanes to go through the [...]]]></description>

		<title>grandfather clocks</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few years back, we had the chance to take a lovely grandfather clock from my husband&#8217;s grandmother&#8217;s home when she passed away.  I had always wanted one, so when we were asked what we&#8217;d like to remember Nanny, we were in agreement that the clock would be it.  Had I gone shopping [...]]]></description>
