By NOKP Staff, with Al Hurlbrink & Phyllis HodgesPhotos by Phyllis HodgesInitially,. they. came. looking. for.a.place.just.to.talk.and.to.laugh..They.have.come.away.with. the.sort. of. fun. friendships. that. only.come. from. getting. together.simply.because.you.want.to..Seven. days. a. week. around.7:45. AM. they. begin. to. arrive. at.the. McDonald’s. at. Crossroads.Shopping. Center.. They. are. the.ROMEOs,.a.group.of.Retired.Old.Men.Eating.Out..The.guys.come.and. go. for. the. next. 90. minutes.or. so.. They. wander. in,. grab.breakfast.or.a.cup.of.coffee.and.find.an.open. seat.at. the.bar.or.at.a.nearby. table..Conversation.flows.. No. topic. is. off. limits.. The.guys. chew. on. politics,. current.events,.religion,.sports.–.anything.that.is.on.their.minds..The.group.is.informal.and,.at.times,.irreverent..But,.according.to.group.member,.Al. Hurlbrink,. the. conversation.is. good-natured. and. rarely.contentious..“If.a.guy.gets.out.of.hand,.we.let.him.know...We.don’t.

mind.different.opinions,.but.we’re.there.to.have.a.good.time..This.is.about.camaraderie.”That.group.camaraderie.began.across. an. ocean. with. a. British.men’s.club.known.as.the.Loonies..One. of. the. Sun. City. Center.ROMEOs. met. a. man. overseas.who.had.formed.a.“Looney”.club.

in.Britain..Eventually.the.man.passed.away,.leaving.a.box.full. of. caps,. pins. and.other.“Looney”. memorabilia..The. guys. decided. to. keep.the. Looney. legacy. alive..They.donned.the.caps.and.adopted. the. friendly,. guys.being.guys,.attitude..

Many. of. the. regulars. wear.the. Looney. hats. or. pins,. but.that’s. about. as. formal. as. these.“meetings”. get.. There. is. no.agenda,. no. organization,. no.official. minutes. and. no. roll. call..But. that.doesn’t.mean. the.guys.don’t.notice.if.a.regular.is.missing..Al. assures. me. they. look. out. for.each. other.. “If. we. have. a. guy.who’s. been. coming. and. he.

Point. Travel. Club,.started. becoming. extremely.ill. every. time. she. tried. to. eat..After. undergoing. multiple.tests,. she. was. diagnosed. with.gastroparesis. and. gastric.motility.syndrome..These.illnesses.began.to.cause.her.intestines.to.stop. functioning. properly.. The.condition.progressed.and,.sadly,.she. had. to. have. her. stomach.removed. last. year..Doctors. say.a. stomach. /. pancreas. /. small.bowel. transplant. is. essential. to.her.survival,.and.she.is.currently.undergoing. testing. in. hopes. of.being. added. to. the. transplant.waiting.list.soon.Despite. these. challenges,. Jan.is. passionate. about. life,. and.she. looks. forward. to. feeling.healthy.again.after. receiving.a.transplant..She.has.a.big.heart,.and.her.family.means.the.world.to. her.. Jan’s. mother,. Gloria,. is.a. wonderful,. supportive. friend,.

and.she.is.extremely.grateful.for.the. love. of. her. siblings,. nieces,.nephews. and. friends.. Before.doctors. put. in.a. PICC. line,. Jan.loved. to. swim.. But,. because.swimming.can.pose.a.risk.to.the.PICC.line,.she.cannot.swim.until.she. is. healthy. enough. to. have.the.line.removed..Whether.she’s.

experiencing.good.days.or.bad.days,. she’s. always. determined.to.continue.fighting.to.overcome.this.frightening.health.crisis..But. right. now,. she. needs. your.help.. Jan’s. hope. for. a. new. life.comes. at. a. very. high. price.. A.stomach/pancreas/small.bowel.transplant. costs. approximately.

$1. million.. And. that’s. only. the.beginning.. Even. though. her.health. insurance. will. cover.the. transplant. itself,. Jan. faces.significant. medical. expenses..For. the. rest. of. her. life,. she. will.need. follow-up. care. and. daily.anti-rejection. medications..The. cost. of. post-transplant.medications. can. range. from.$2,000.to.$5,000.per.month—and.they.are.as.critical.to.her.survival.as. the. transplant. itself.. When.she. receives. her. transplant,.Jan. must. temporarily. relocate.320.miles. from.her. home. to.be.near. the. transplant. center. in.Miami.during.recovery,.incurring.substantial. expenses. for. travel,.food.and.lodging..What. if.your. life.depended.on.the.compassion.and.generosity.of.others?The.

By Adam Porter, EIC NOKPNorth. Atlantic. Hurricane.Season.. It.begins. in.June.and.run. through. November,. a.deceptively. artificial. season.that,.despite.all.of.our.modern.prognostication. equipment,.continues. to. surprise. us..For. a. Florida. boy. like. me,.hurricane. lore. is. something.of.an. inescapable. hobby..All. of.us. have. our. own. “hurricane.story,”. whether. it. be. a.hurricane.party.gone.awry.or.huddling. in. a. bathroom. with.four. other. family. members.and. a. dog. or. two. listening.to. the. wind. howling. outside..From. watching. my. neighbor.run. around. in. the. yard.collecting. errant. shingles. as.the. eye. passed. to. watching.the.water.begin. to. slosh.over.the. seawall…and.holding.my.breath.In.1992,.the.first.named.storm.of.the.season,.Andrew,.came.ashore.and.devastated.south.Florida..Two.decades.later.the.emotional.and.financial. scars.of.that.beast.have.yet.to.heal.for.many.survivors..Seven.years.prior. to. Andrew,. Hurricane.Elena.parked.off.the.Gulf.coast.and.dumped.rain.on.us. for.a.week.before.heading.off. into.the.sunset..There.was.flooding,.a.few.downed.trees.and.little.else.to.mark.her.passing..There. was. the. 1935. “Labor.Day”. storm,. the. most. intense.hurricane.to.ever.make.landfall.in.the.United.States..Many.in.my.generation.first.learned.about.it. from. Lionel. Barrymore,. who.goes. on. at. length. about. the.storm.in.the.Bogart.movie,.Key.Largo.. I. know. many. people.who. thought. the. description.of.the.storm.in.that.movie.was.pure. Hollywood.. It. was.. The.truth.was.far.worse..Weather. forecasting. in. the.21st. century. is. a. much. more.precise. art. than. it. was. when.dispatchers. sent. an. ill-fated.train. backing. down. the.Overseas.Railway. in.1935..But.that.still.didn’t.help.us.in.2004,.when. four. storms. sketched.a. DNA. helix. across. the.state.. Coastal. dwellers. were.evacuated. inland. only. to. be.hit.by.not.one.but.two.storms.that. cut. a. swatch.across. the.central. and. “safest”. parts. of.the. state.. Not. to. say. these.folks.would.have.been.better.served.to.stay.home..Certainly.not.. But. it. just. goes. to. show.that.hurricanes.go.where.they.wish. –. despite.our. advanced.forecasting. methods. and.safety.precautions..By.the.time.you.read.this.we.will.know.the.damage.–.or.lack.

thereof.–.that.Hurricane.Isaac.will. have.wrought.. But. today,.as.I.write.this,.dire.warnings.are.playing.on.ever.TV.station.and.breaking.news.on.every. local.news. website.. Talking. heads.are. debating. the. dangers. to.the. scheduled. Republican.National. Convention. while.residents.are.wondering.“what.about.the.dangers.to.us?”What.about.us,.what.do.we.do?. That. is. the. number. one.question. I. tend. to. get. from.folks. not. from. the. Sunshine.State.when.a.big,. bad. storm.is.bearing.down..The.answer?.You. never. really. know. until.afterward.. And,. as. we. saw.in. Hurricane. Katrina,. even.afterward. things. can. go.from. bad. to. worse.. All. you.can.do. is. try. your. best. to. be.prepared..Get.your.hurricane.preparedness. list. and. stock.up.. Have. an. overnight. bag.packed.just.in.case..Locate.all.of.your.important.papers..You.will. need. to. take. them. with.you.if.you.have.to.evacuate..Of. course,. there. are.some. other,. rather. bizarre.precautionary. measures.. Like.yesterday’s.message.from.the.wastewater.officials. in.Pinellas.County. who. are. cautioning.residents. to. cut. back. on.taking. showers. and. flushing.toilets..Yes,.really..It.seems.they.have.yet. to. recover. from. the.deluge. caused. by. Tropical.Storm.Debby,.and. streets.are.flooding.after.a.light.rain..Thus,.the.wastewater. has. nowhere.to.go..Just. one. of. the. many. joys.of. living. in. a. hurricane. zone..But. we. love. it. here. anyway..And. why. not?. It. can. be. as.dangerous. and. inconvenient.everywhere. else,. and. we. still.have. the. best. weather. just.about. anywhere.. But. despite.all. the. postcard. days,. Jimmy.Buffett.was.right,.there’s.no.use.tryin’.to.reason.with.hurricane.season..The.storm.will.go.where.it.will.. No.amount. or.worry. or.shouting.will.change.that..So,. stock. those. cupboards.and. survival. kits,. my. friends..And,. if. you. haven’t. yet,. take.a.moment.to.meet.and.greet.your. neighbors.. When. the.chips.are.down.and.the.storm.is.coming,.you.will.need.each.other.

Some. of. the. guys. were. career.military,. some. veterans. of.World.War. 2. and. Korea..

Well,. you. just.come. by. and. take. a. seat.. The.group. is.open.to.any.Kings.Point.or. Sun. City.

Not. that. it’s.obscene.. We’re. just. guys. being.guys.”And. how. has. McDonald’s.responded. to. this. invasion. of.Loonies. who. just. grab. coffee.and. hang. out?. Al. is. quick.to. compliment.

Introducing The Smile


By Deputy Chris GirardFirst,. I.wanted. to. say.welcome.home. to. all. of. our. returning.residents..Kings.Point.and.Sun.City.Center. really. are. terrific. places.to. live. and. play.. But,. because.no.place. is. quite. perfect,. there.are.a.few.things.residents.should.keep.in.mind.to.help.them.have.make.the.most.of.your.fun.in.the.sun..Just. a. quick. reminder. that.school.is.back.in.session..Morning.and. afternoon. traffic. will. be.heavier. heading. to. and. from.Ruskin.and.Wimauma..And.keep.a.sharp.eye.out.for.kids.crossing.the. street.. They. may. not. be.looking. for. you,. so. please. look.out.for.them..Recently,. there. have. been.a. fair. number. of. break-ins. or.attempted. break-ins. in. our.community.. The. bad. guys. are.either.trying.to.or.succeeding.at.prying. open. the. back. windows.or. sliding. glass. doors. of. homes..Generally.the.motive.behind.this.crime.is.theft,.particularly.jewelry.theft.. You. may. not. realize. this,.but. many. of. these. crimes. are.committed. when. the. resident.has.simply.stepped.out.for.a.bit,.sometimes. as. little. as. 20. or. 30.minutes..This.means.that.someone.was.likely.watching.the.house.or.casing.the.neighborhood.for.an.opportunity..With. the. right. tools,.which.can.be.hidden.in.pockets,.it. takes. very. little. time. to. pop.open.a.door.or.window.and.slip.

into.a.home.virtually.unnoticed..While.you.cannot.stop.bad.guys.from. trying. to. commit. crimes,.there.are.several.things.you.can.do.to.thwart.their.attempts.First,. be. vigilant.. There. is. no.substitute. for. simply. looking.around. and. paying. attention..Do.you.see.a.suspicious.vehicle?.Someone. sitting. in. a. parked.car. that. you. do. not. recognize..Vehicles. left. running. parked. on.the.easement..Strangers.moving.through. the. neighborhood.passing. out. flyer. or. workers.loitering.suspiciously,.even.if.they.have.equipment..All.of.these.are.potential.signs.of.people.that.are.possibly.up.to.no.good..If.you.see.someone.who.fits.this.description,.do. not. engage. them.. Instead,.if. possible,. take. down. their. tag.number.and.get.a.description.of.the.car..Then.call.the.Hillsborough.County.Non-Emergency.Number.at.813.247.8200..And,.of.course,.if.you.witness.a.crime.in.progress,.call. 911..Again,.do.not.engage.the.bad.guys..Let.us.handle.that.Next,. a. word. about. screen.doors.. Whether. it. be. garage,.sunroom. or. porch. doors,. none.

of. these. are. adequate. security.systems..These.are.not.deterrents.and. they. will. simply. not. keep.bad.guys.out..Also,.never. leave.your. garage. screen. open. and.your. garage.door. closed.when.you. leave.. You.may. not. realize.it,.but.this. is.basically.advertising.to. the. bad. guys. that. no. one. is.home..So,.when.you.leave,.take.a.moment.to.secure.your.screen.

as. well. as. your. garage. door.. It.may. not. be. convenient,. but. it.could.save.you.from.a.break-in..Also,. remember. to. keep. your.valuables. locked.up. in.a.heavy.fireproof. safe.. Preferably. one.that.is.bolted.to.the.floor.and.too.heavy.for.the.thief.to.just.pick.up.and.carry.out..And,. as. always,. be. safe. out.there.

“I Voted”By Brenda WisemanIf. you.don’t.vote,.you.have.no.right.to.complain.These.were.not.the.exact.words.all.the.voters.I.talked.with.after.the.August.primary. said,.but. it. is. the.exact. meaning. they. all. voiced..We.talked.about.how.wonderful.it.is.to.be.involved.in.the.election.process--not. what. choices. they.made,. but. that. the. choices.were.ours.to.make..As.Kings.Point.resident,. Len. Terrell. put. it,. “It’s.hard. not. to. vote. when. people.are.dying.for.the.privilege.”It. was. evident. that. folks. in.Kings. Point. were. exercising. their.privilege. as. they. sported. their.“I. Voted”. stickers.. One. resident.even.came.back. to. the.“voting.room”.to.get.his.sticker,.because.he.had.forgotten.to.get.one..And.the. poll. workers. made. sure. he.was.accommodated.Being. a. poll. worker. is. not. the.easiest. job. ever,. but. does. have.some. of. the. longest. hours. ever.(6am. to. 7pm).. Yet. there.are. still.folks.who.enjoy.working.the.polls.year. after. year.. There. is. a. small.amount. of.money. to. be.made;.however,.serving.the.community.seems.to.be.as. important.as.the.money.. While. talking. with. the.poll.workers,.they. indicated.they.wanted. to. remain. anonymous,.while.making. it.clear. they.could.always. use.more. poll. workers.. If.you.are. interested. in.working.on.Election. Day,. you. can. call. Poll.Worker. Services. at. 813-744-5855.or. visit. VoteHillsborough.org. to.look.into.it.If. that. possibility. does. not.appeal.to.you,.but.you.still.want.to. contribute,. just. make. sure.you. vote!. You. can. go. to. your.polling. place--Kings. Point. has.two. precincts,. 904. and. 908--on. Election. Day,. or. you. can.participate. in.early.voting.at.the.South. Shore. Regional.

Then.all. you.have. to.do.is. return. it.by.mail.or. take. it. to.a.ballot. drop. site.. This. is. the. old.absentee.ballot..Now.you.don’t.have.to.be.absent.Of. course,. if. you. are. not.planning. on. being. absent. and.would.rather.place.your.ballot.in.the.ballot.box,.you.can.go.to.the.Main.Kings.Point.Clubhouse.and.
