CAB BUSINESS IN TAMPA
That should tell it all. I took this with a picture phone on the stand known as 21. If you have read Tim's blog you have known his feelings on this stand. Stand is a cabby term for where cab will sit waiting on a call. I stopped at the cab office this morning and talk to shoe. His nickname. Since midnight there have been only 500 plus calls. Not good. I remember about 5 or 6 years ago it was on a Sunday morning and Bob the dispatcher at time sent me to the Publix store on Dale Mabry just south of Cypress. Now this is not unsual in itself, but it was 5 am. Now that is unusual. This guy was deaf so it was tough to figure out where he wanted to go, after the struggle I got his wallet. It said North Port. Oh Boy, now the next problem was money, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a bunch of money. Ha not a problem, I took him home by his pointing out the directions all the way. He never could tell me how he ended up at the Pubix at 5 in morning. Stranger things have happened but that is for a later post.

Hi Larry, Love the new blog you have going here. I was peekin in on Tampa Taxi and saw your comment on the baseball game today. I watched it on Channel 17, I don't know which cable you have, but I have Verizon and it showed the whole game.
Glad to see you blogging, and talking sports. Even being a girl, I like sports, and I love love love my BoSox!

Larry this is Cracker, tim is crazy. All games this season except 2 have been on TV. Koufax is one of the 3 best of all times, GUARANTEED!!! the RAYS have the best staff in baseball...this is not a fluke...They will win at least 95 games this season and at least a wild card. They have the best defense in baseball. Cubs, Red sox and hard to believe, Rays are the 3 best teams in Baseball.
We are doing it anonymous because we cant get in the other ways...at least I couldn't.
