Ephrata Police Department: Protect and Serve... Themselves?
Ah, Ephrata. A town where the mission of the local police department reads like it was plagiarized from a superhero comic book but delivered with the finesse of a second-rate sitcom. Let’s dive into the absurdity of their actions and see just how well they live up to their lofty promises.

Downtown Clearwater Library is a controversy
I've resided in Clearwater since 2010. I've worked at many places that no longer exist here like the Steak n Shake on U.S. 19 and the little telemarketing office that once employed me near Ulmerton and 66th. I've also worked for places that still do exist like Postcardmania and Clearwater Marine Aquarium. Gandy Beach (the way it was) is gone, transformed into a mangrove preserve. Our Pinellas County public libraries are either improving or vanishing. The Clearwater officials (regarding the downtown library) decided to go with improvements, but the million dollar ampitheater project came with much controversy including the resignation of a mayor.

'Beep, Beep,' the Jeeps Weep
In a race for position, blaring horns accompanied by clouds of smoke filled the air. Four-wheeled vehicles, painted in vibrant colors and adorned with gaudy accessories, then began to speed down the street, shuttling people to the sound of roaring engines. This is an everyday scene in the Philippines, where loud and colorful jeepneys reign supreme.

Get a Job
Someone posted "It's just that simple: Get a Job" the other day. It really stuck with me. It got me thinking of Capitalism in a slightly different light and I realized the true thing that is most reprehensible about Capitalism is what it does to people.
