The cache got dumped, sadly.

I still have it up on my screen. I'll see what I can do.

I put screen-caps up. Even on the Wayback Machine it's blocked by nofollows.

Ms. Vivinetto has interesting hair.

Is St. Petersburg the San Francisco of Florida? That is, does it attract a gay community (like Key West)? Or is all of Florida developing gay pride?

Just wondering...

St. Pete is in Pinellas County. Across the bay is Tampa in Hillsborough. So close and yet so far. The Hillsborough commission didn't care for what it saw in Pinellas and moved to preclude it their own environs. The focus of gay ire was on one commissioner, and the results you see.

why is it that it seems like homosexual people
always want to explain themselves to some kid...

I woulda started crying if somebody had done that to me..and ran for my Mama's skirt...no doubt.

And no doubt homosexual parents would be annoyed at a hetero taking class time to educate kids about the habits of the (preferred) heterosexual lifestyle. Not appropriate. It's one thing to be gay, it's another thing to be a negative influence on children.

well the way I see it is..being homosexual by nature precludes parenting, excepting that slim
group who changed in midstream (typically the few
of that genre that I have come to know are still
much too involved in personal confusion to have
ANY valued opinion on child rearing...sad)and as a general issue parent, weilding all my heterosexual powers...and fathering a whole slew of youngins in the process, It just occurred to me that the only time you hear somebody screaming about 'showing' or 'teaching' some heterosexual parent's kid something, sure enough, there is some gay stuff goin on somewhere.

Thanks for the Knucklehead award. May I ask where you receive your information to decide who you give your awards to? All the newspapers I read say I merely posted comments (three, since January) on the fake Ronda Storms profile on myspace. You are crediting me with creating the fake Ronda profile and that's an honor I don't deserve.
I posted three comments on Ronda's phony profile under my art gallery's moniker (that means "name") and I got fired.
Also, the documentary I was intending to make where people of DIFFERENT sexualities explain who they are (not just homosexuals, as you erroneously printed)was not intended for children but adults and "my blog" which as you can plainly see is a group blog that has not been touched since October of last year, clearly explains that.
I'm glad your site is not the mainstream media. So much misinformation in one piece is frightening.

I don't give knucklehead awards, Gina. You're confusing me with another blog -- in other words, you're misinformed.
You're thinking of a derivative blog whose first name is also 'Florida.'

The credit given you is from the article cited. I haven't seen any other articles as I had no plans to update. I will, however, change the post to reflect the exact quote of the article, and I thank you for the correction.

Regarding your documentary, your blog (with every post stamped with your name, btw) states:

"The film, featuring members of the local GLBT community, is in direct repsonse to Ronda Storms' statement that she "doesn't want to have to explain to her children what homosexuality is."

The short film will feature several gay men, lesbians and transgendered people explaining in the most simplisitic terms, who and what they are."

Since the film is a "direct response" to the Storms' quote and "Each person will talk directly to the camera as if they were engaging a child in converstation, keeping the dialogue, playful, lively and gentle," one would be hard-pressed to say that its goal was to teach adults about heterosexuality.

But why quibble?

Your job loss was just a reality check that you were in the wrong profession. Consider this a golden opportunity for a bright and happy future in another field of endeavor (I've had lots of them); one that doesn't require journalistic integrity and where it won't matter what a potential future employer finds when he Googles your name. When a newspaper editor makes a public apology in his paper because of your actions, it's not a good thing.

Best of luck to you.

BTW- I enjoy fellow-St. Pete Timeser Steve Spears' "Stuck in the 80's" blog very much. Good stuff.

It's the weekend..let's have some fun.

I'm still trying to figure out why my comments here didn't show up before, and if it's because they were offensive. I let stuff like that bug me. Maybe I just hit preview and not post or something.

Lets see Ronda and the rest of her buddies try to censor this.

I have a funny feeling they might not NOT try to censor that. Call me crazy.
