Watch for 3 new editors to start adding

June 18, 2008 – 8:03 pm
we have been dilly dallying around too much but now we are getting serious. We need good editors and are asking some to come on board.

First WalMart then Publix lecanto

June 18, 2008 – 8:02 pm
Wenever get in express line with a lot of items or with checks. However we will get into that line if the place is not busy and we have more than 20 or 10 respectively. But twice that happened with just a FEW items more than the express limit and the frumpy cashiers had to point this out to us. The rudeness was clear, the item count was 23 and 14 and again, nobody in line behind us. Cmon cashiers of Citrus, Get with it and say thanks for shopping at walmart or publix and keep the nonsense to your staff meetings. CitrusReporter would love to hear similar stories, but even more stories where this DID NOT happen when you had more items.

Movie theatre price gouging stinks

January 29, 2008 – 7:34 pm
For years movie theater prices have been higher than other places for soda and candy. We all know that and for years I have been sneaking candy into the movies. But the other day the concession stand girls offered what they called a combo. Two sodas, medium and one large popcorn. Noting that the management was scared to place the price on these things I knew the price was high and was shocked when they said $16.50. 16.50 for two sodas and one popcorn. This is just plain wrong.

Saute until onion and garlic are translucent, around 10 minutes. Remove from heat and the light mixture: flame 20 seconds (you may need to add a little Jack to do this). Add all remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil, then turn down to medium simmer. Simmer about 20 minutes, stirring bits if you prefer a smoother sauce ( I do, after cooking you can even strain the sauce if you like). This sauce has some very unique characteristic: It taste completely different if you use it as a cold after sauce ...

Beverly Hills Civic Assn.

I am sure they are a good bunch. I have no compaint (yet) about them or their business. I just had to make a post about something someone there did. The notable part was that someone had to think this through and come to the conclusion that this was a good and intelligent move. A friend had been given a small boat. They parked it along side their house. It is only for a short while but nobody knew that.  It will be gone soon however. So rest assured there is no argument about it being there against deed rest. The strange part was the notice from BHCA to the owner of the property. The letter had the block and plot highlighted in green, and a photo of the boat in the yard. The owner joked and said, "as soon as I got the letter I checked outside and sure enough my boat was ...

Citrus Memorial Nursing Staff

October 5, 2007 – 8:07 pm
Just wanted to give a shout out to the nurses and in fact all the staff at CMH. They are deserving of a good word because they work hard and the patient is their main concern. It certainly is not the money :-)

For those who have never visited Wendys on Saturday night in Crystal River, do so. There are a bunch of classic cars and the club is always full of friendly people.
