• See your dermatoligist. By Geniusofdespair

  
  I had a pre melanoma growth removed from my arm about twice the size of a freckle.  The incision was at least 2 inches for a less than a 1/4 inch spot. They bulked me up so I can't bend my arm.

• Miami Dolphins: We Will Not Pay for Your Stadium Revamp. By Geniusofdespair

  I was looking around on the Political Action Committee page and took a look at the Committee "Pets' Voice."

• Norman Braman's Folly. By Geniusofdespair

  
  Rather than doing a recall of  County Commissioner Bruno Barreiro and other County Commissioners, Norman Braman opted to run candidates against the sitting County Commissioners. He supported Former State Rep. Luis Garcia against Bruno. Bad move to run hand-picked candidates, it cost his PAC Change Miami-Dade Now!. [...]
