Easing into work after the Super Bowl
CFO Alex Sink some advice for gov't schedulers: No early morning meetings after the big game.
Arriving just after 8:30 to a My Safe Florida Home advisory panel meeting, Sink joked that program coordinator Tami Torres must not be a sports fan. "Tami, no more meetings 8:30 Monday morning," Sink said.
Sink apologized to panel members from far-flung areas who had to come to Tallahassee on Sunday night, thus limited to watching the game from a hotel or bar.
Craig Fugate arrived an hour late. There was a lot of fog driving up from Gainesville, he explained. "You sure it wasn't a Super Bowl delay?" asked Sen. Mike Bennett. "Not for the Patriots, sir," Fugate replied.

Jim Greer is working hard today just like he does averyday because he is a conservative who is leading a principled movement.

a principled movement to spend every dime he raised in 2007, without saving for election year.

And what does that have to do with anything, 12:14?

Getting back to work after the Super Bowl? Apparently, Cristi didn't get the message.

12:14: I really wish the Buzz would track IP addresses, so we can know which staffers are using our tax dollars to waste time defending their bosses on this blog.

There was actually a ton of fog in Gainesville this morning.

12:32 The party isn't funded by tax dollars. Find a new outlet for your anger.

I dont think that RPOF staffers blog positively on behalf of Greer unless they are forced to!

I saw Gov. Crist anpok fishing this weekend in Boca Grande...wonder if he made it back to his office today?

What was Cristi fishing for? The same thing that Bob Allen was?

Chuck couldn't possibly make "back" to his office... he's never actually been there to begin with.

If we're lucky, McCain will at least tap CC for Attorney General. That'll be another way to get him out of Florida.

Good call, 1:54... Then Chuck could fund Homeland Security with Slot Machine proceeds!

The only thing Chuck and work have in common is the “k”.
As in:
Boy Toy: Hey Chucky, lethss sskip work today and cuddle.
Chuck: “k”!
