Cold case, murder and mayhem...and slight overcharge of taxes ...

Price and Poe are being held in possible connection to a local 58 year old man’s slaying next door to an old neighbor of ours but in a different area when we all lived elsewhere next door to them then, got that?
With those names what else could they do in life, those two possible suspects? Too many macabre associations with those two names, Vincent Price (actor who acted mostly in Poe movies) and Edgar Allan Poe (the famous author)...

The other case is local too; back in 1999 a young girl of around four years old, Pilar Rodriguez, was taken by her babysitter on vacation to here, and her boyfriend murdered the child, but no body was ever found. Today, Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office apparently got a new hot lead on this quite cold case, and so they have been excavating an area east of Punta Gorda called Cleveland, (We lived over that way from 1995 to 1998) Florida that is, off Duncan Road AKA route #17. So far no new information or I would have told you, but you know that. They have stopped for the night but will be back out there tomorrow at 7:00 A.M.

Charlotte County tax office did a booboo they collected 500 thousand more bucks in our taxes than they were supposed to, but get this… we are not getting any of it back in nice little stimulus checks! What, you barked? Nope none of it; just wondering what they will be doing with it…maybe they will now hire back some librarians and let them return to normal hours of operations? I was told by a reliable source that they were in the hole only 200K, for a county’s budget that’s not too bad, but now they have some found money, Nike it (just do it!) , PLEASE, Please, please!

Today we did get some errands done at the home store, had a healthy lunch at the healthy lunch restaurant then on to the super big discount store, all accomplished before 2:00 P.M.

For some strange reason I was pooped by 8 P.M. last night and so I went to bed, and guess what… now I have been up since three thirty would you believe?
And I am trying my darndest not to make a repeat of last night.
In other words I better find something capable of entertaining me to the point of waking me silly!

On that note I will wish you all a good night and to all count those blessings, and I better not do that since that might put me to sleep too early again. Sorry! As great as that concept is you know what I mean, no offense.
