here are a few news clips from Florida. Yes folks, they are real......
(1) Delshawn Prejean, 35, was arrested in Jacksonville, Fla., in June after a Starbuck's waitress squealed on him for leaving a small pile of marijuana as a tip. [Star-Ledger, 8-17-05] [WKMG-TV (Orlando)-AP, 7-1-05]
(2) Among the latest citizens to (as per the First Amendment) "peaceably assemble" and "petition government for a redress of grievances" were "hundreds" of sex offenders who gathered in September in Palm Bay, Fla., to protest the town's severe restrictions on where they can live and travel. [Austin American-Statesman, 9-15-05] [WKMG-TV (Orlando), 9-15-05]
(3) Hungry Howie's Pizza deliveryman Thomas Stefanelli, 37, was shot in the leg during a June robbery in Tampa, Fla., as he made his rounds, but he fought the robbers off and, not really aware that the pain in his leg was from a gunshot, dutifully delivered his other four pizzas before returning to the store and examining his wound.
I swear this state is full of the strange and unusual.
