A Tampa fisherman caught himself a turtle a few months ago, put it in a fresh-water tank, and kept it in his backyard. But his intent wasn’t so much to make the little guy a pet but to totally make him into soup. Turns out, the guy caught a Kemp’s…
As we mentioned yesterday, Mittington Mittbot’s crack team went into damage control over his now infamous “47 percent” remarks by not only releasing a 14-year-old tape that apparently shows Barack Obama wearing a Che T-shirt and saying that the government should send everyone a check for $1 million talking about…
People living in Delray might have received a mailer about Democrat Sen. Maria Sachs contributing to George W. Bush “more than once” and being in cahoots with Katherine Harris in disenfranchising voters.

When…
