    Casino at Sandestin?

    Jobs? Sigh. LEGALIZED VICE. There are more creative, beneficial ways to spur business opportunity and economic growth than expanded legalization of another vice that can utterly ruin lives.

    How do I get rid of gas grill?

    I tried that with the ex-wife but nobody would take her.

    Dead pigeons?

    They are an invasive species that will inevitably displace the annual Snowbird migration.

    Coming Soon .... Jet's Pizza in Destin!

    Cool. Gotta try it when it opens.

    Dead pigeons?

    What's with all the dead bird events over the past year - thousands and thousands just dropping dead all over the world. These are the signs! Prepare yourselves! The final sign will be if the Dolphins make the playoffs.

    Judge Dismisses Destin Public Vs. Private Beach Lawsuit

    If there's a sign and it's planted in the 'public' area of the beach, then it's a free sign willingly donated for public taking.

    No TVs in Seaside restaurants

    Uh...children...who are, perhaps, say..."SCREAMING", raising a holy ruckus, running around and throwing things like wild savages maybe, as their parents (likewise tired of fast food and eating at home thus seek out a more refined dining experience) who have grown immune to the endless racket of...

    Sigh. Ordinance For Dogs Eating At Restaurants If I see a dog eating chow at a restaurant, I'm turning around and never coming back.

    No TVs in Seaside restaurants

    Sigh. Harbordocks on Saturday evening to watch the sunset and enjoy some sushi. It was fantastic...until a gaggle of folks were sat right next to us with three or four loud, whining, crying younguns. It totally ruined the vibe. Couldn't get out of there fast enough. Won't be going back in...

    South Walton TDC pursuing new visitor center site

    I've been to the Visitor's Center a bunch of time, for no other reason that it's just nice to talk to the great folks who work there. Never know what neat tidbit you'll pick up during the conversation.

    Enforcing Beach Ordinances - Revenue Opportunity?

    What kind of savage lets their mutt pinch a loaf on the beach!?! Anybody caught doing that should have their mugshot taken and posted in the paper along with the offending dog and the pile. It's disgusting. My friends give me lip about my personal view that dogs don't belong on these beaches...

    No TVs in Seaside restaurants

    That's a restaurant that can have my business anytime. I love kids, but not when I'm eating somewhere other than a fast food joint. Micky D's and other places should be training grounds for younguns who should then be allowed to enter more civilized dining when they reach the tender young age...

    Judge Dismisses Destin Public Vs. Private Beach Lawsuit

    Whatcha do is stand right at the legal line in the sand in a loud, gaudy flowered hawaiian shirt with your beer in your hand and extend one foot with toes pointed out over the line, but NOT making contact with the sand, waving it back and forth, exclaiming out loud for all the uptight deluded...

    Obstacles Versus Objections: How to tell the difference

    I'm back in paradise and working on the tan I don't need. I've spent more time at the beach in the past two weeks than I would spend in a whole year the last time I lived here. Everybody's complaining about the heat, but man I absolutely, totally love it - sweating like a pig, huffing and...

    Bike on path or 30a?

    "...rude and reckless necks..." I'm sorry, but if that ain't Shakespearean in it's poetic delivery, I don't know what is. "Alas, poor Yoric, he was but a rude and reckless neck."

    Where do I sit?

    "You can have my beach when you pry it from my cold dead fingers." So, a guy's gotta be packing law books to enjoy a day on the sand. Great. I wish some rent-a-cop would come up to me trying to 'intimidate' me off the beach. That dude would have to get self-esteem counseling by the time I...

    Panhandling at stop signs

    I'm just shocked that anybody has the stones to stand out there - what are they, Evel Knievel or sumpm? Some of them are just plain reckless, though well-meaning. There's been a couple times where only my exceedingly marvelous driving skills has prevented catastrophe. I love charity, but...

    Your choice for new Walton TDC website name?

    You're right on that one. I've been snatching up domain names in my area of expertise with that exact strategy in mind. Only a couple more to go, but they're the really costly ones, and the current holders know I want them so they're raking me over the coals. Dang it!

    Trolley / Tram on Scenic 30A

    I wonder how much a city bus costs - like they have in Seattle, L.A., Atlanta and such. Many of the ones in the northwest are Hybrid buses, too. That's a job I'd have a good time with, being a 'city' bus driver in SoWal. Hmmmm....

    Your choice for new Walton TDC website name?

    Hey I like that KA-CHING! Best one I've seen. They bought the land - now they gotta do some serious building, and it's gonna have to outshine everything else that has to do with 30A, Walton County, South Walton Blah Blah, Beaches, Real Estate, etc. Heck, I think SOWAL would have been a much...

    Your choice for new Walton TDC website name?

    I wonder how much cheddar 30A.com had to spend on that "acquisition" (I love that term - they're acting like two media giants just went all Wall Street). They bought a domain name for crying out loud, not an institution. Anyway, I'm happy for 'em cuz I love 30A.com. 'SouthWalton.com' is...

    Tips

    I was a tightwad when it came to tips up until about ten years ago when I started dating this waitress who promptly gave me the business after I broke out with a ten percenter on a meal (10% - cuz that's what I was led to believe was the norm). After I was duly and most vociferously consulted...

    Comforters in rentals

    I must be the only moron in the South to demand freshly cleaned linen (comforter and all) when I go to stay someplace. I've even shown up well before check-in and gone down to talk to the cleaning staff myself to get hooked up with what I need. I'm not a germaphobe - but I figure that in the...

    Wes-- I get your point about the perfectionism, especially on the audio, but man I totally gave up after weeks of trying to sound all fancy and just went with what felt good, cuz the truth is people are really more interested in what you have to say that can relieve them of their problems.

    I've been doing the 'powerpointesque animation' thing for about two years (Dynamic Mental Fitness YouTube) and it's driving my marketing advisor nuts because he insists that I should be doing video of myself doing the talking, advising, and instructing while looking right in the camera.

    Can everyone admit that playoffs produce

    Maybe if they made the college basketball playoffs best 2 out of 3. Anybody can have an off night - but can a lousy team do it two or three nights in a row - there ya go. The NBA playoffs take forever, so usually the best teams really do rise to the top at the finish line. Usually.

    Dog-Friendly Beaches

    When I was doing lots of volunteer time at the Tourist Development Council greeting visitors and handing out brochures and such on Okaloosa Island, that was a constant question, "Where can I take my dog on the beach?" People would get pretty upset when I explained the limitations. I love the...
