From the Dade's Battle re-enactment in Bushnell, Fl from 2002. Maj. Francis Dade is on the left. He was the first to fall from a single shot fired. A moment later a fusillade of rifle shot from the Seminoles took down half his command. The rest would be slaughtered over the next three hours.
John Frankenhiemer - Film Director
Director John Frankenhiemer (1930 - 2000) (second from left) rushes out of the action to get a shot for his movie "Black Sunday" (1977) In '76 I went down to Miami to watch Frankenheimer making his movie. I taped an interview for my Humanities (Ms. Dunn) class at Cooper City High in Davie, Florida.
Political Lampoon
Richard (Dick) Crotty served as Orange County, FL chairman from 2001- 2010. A most uncharismatic man, Crotty never passed up an opportunity to tax the citizens of the county. His premiere catastrophe was his failure to pass the mammoth transportation tax Mobility 20/20. The people beat back this half-cent sales tax increase 54 to 46%. It was the last time local government attempted a tax hike with a public referendum. Instead now they buy-off commissioners.
Young Woman On Fence
Alison W. models in a shot from a black and white series taken around 1977 out near Sunshine Ranches, Fl. I used a red #25 filter to increase the contrast of the white clouds against the blue sky.
Cool Shriner Car
Shriners are a fraternal order who have established children's hospitals across North America. Driving these mini cars is their signature fun even in parades all across the country. This is a Homecoming Parade for nearby Edgewater High School in College park neighborhood, Orlando, Fl. (2008)
New Urbanist Wet Dream
This is an Orlando Science Center model of what Liberals want to do to the places we live: cram us into high-density housing with no land and public transportation. Leftists are control-freaks.
Bummer.
Poor sap performs sobriety tests on I-4 in Orlando.
Aggressive Weather
The nastiest looking clouds I've ever seen.
Long LIve Super 8
Going for the dream...
Lou "Carls"
The visionary behind the most successful Cooper City High reunion ever on November 11, 2011.
Whaaaaat!
Funny cartoon of me from Andy back in the day.
Andy With Gibson SG
I believe that's the guitar of Angus (AC/DC) as well as Carlos Santana. Here, best friend Andy chills out in front of his home in Green Meadows, Davie Florida. Taken in December, 1978.
Lawson Lamar sign
Corrupt 9th District State's Attorney Lawson "Lawless" Lamar campaign sign that someone has destroyed.
Charles & Christine
Old friends from my former life.
Lee Middle School Demolished
My son's middle school is demolished to build a shinier, new one. Lee refers to none other than the great Confederate General. The school's students are "The Rebels." Amazing that the PC police haven't caught up yet to this reactionary naming.
