February , 1M4-FIVE Strictly Offithe M2cBtrdl FREEZING IN FLORIDA i , It was "pretty cold" In Florida, reports Ernie McCabe. Well 50 degrees seemed chilly considering Ernie and his wife, Mary Jean, had Just returned to Orlando following a grocery convention in the Bahamas, where Ernie says the mercury stayed around 80. (P.S. ask them to show you their new sweatshirts from Disney World.) DUMP YOUR GARBAGE AND HAVE A DRAUGHT? Is it now possible to dump your garbage at the county land till, and then order up s beer? Not really, but for those who haven't been out there lately, the fellows have put up a nice lighted beer sign in the shed by the dump. No doubt salvaged from a load, the sign could be an indication of things to come. Are pool tables, pretzels and a jukebox next? THEOTHEKSIDE OF THE ROCK A brand is usually put on something that belongs to you to help prove ownership, so Just to set the record straight, before the "branded" rock was removed, this "nice old guy" wasn't sure whether It was on his own property or his neighbor's, so he went to the trouble of finding out exactly who owned it by having a local surveyor run out the property line. It was determined it was on his neighbor by about 30 feet, Then to be on the safe side because of the road proximity, the Forest Service was also consulted about removing the rock, and they, along with the land owner, said this "nice old guy" could have the rock as the inscription was put on without their permission In the first place. Now, this one "nice old guy" thinks Orville is a "nice old guy" too, but Orville's closest property is about a mile away from the original rock site, so obviously his claim that "his" rock was stolen cannot be true. You might brand your neighbor's calf but that doesn't make It yours. lone boys lose to Echo in best game of season r i . . ' . . : " f ; !
