My Next Apartment Was Even, Even, Even Worse
This is a quick read, a simply stated account that we shouldn't find humor in. Years ago any among us may have know someone with a story to tell like this, and that person would have been an outlier. Now it's a way of life. And it's not a problem anymore.

These are the first of 20 coming to Collier County
I believe the plan is to add about 300k residents to Collier, nearly doubling the county's population.
Written by Senior Environmental Planning Specialist April Olson
Collier Enterprises is planning for two more villages in primary panther habitat, and they want us to pay for some of it. How can this happen, you ask? Well, it can and will happen if the Collier County Board of County Commissioners approves two new 1,000-acre villages, Longwater and Bellmar, within the Rural Lands Stewardship Area (RLSA). In addition to causing devastating impacts to the endangered panther’s last remaining habitat, the developer proposes to pass on to the County many of the costs necessary for providing the new villages with the required infrastructure and services.

Is it possible that SW Florida is making a turn away from the hatred and divisiveness of the past, or is this happening in other Florida communities?
The movie Yesterday (2019) - based on Beatles tunes with a twist
An unknown musician with a memory of Beatles songs awakens after an accident to a world that never had Coke, cigarettes, or the Beatles. Of course he becomes overwhelmingly popular as he plays the songs and enters the world of commercial music. As much a part of the movie are how his relationships change and he weighs the worth of happiness against career choices. It's a fun movie, and you'll love the soundtrack.
