					<description><![CDATA[Pinellas County may be on its way to welcoming a wave of new higher-end jobs. At a Tuesday meeting, the Board of County Commissioners made all the necessary moves to encourage an interested businesses service firm &#8212; referred to as B5070737632 by the Commission &#8212; to house its new corporate headquarters in Pinellas County. Should the outside firm choose to set up shop here, which, according to the Commission&#8217;s Aug. 18 meeting agenda, it &#8220;wishes&#8221; to do, then an estimated 255&#8230;]]></description>

Along with SINN, the bikini dance club which opened up next to the Scientology Life Improvement Center in Decemeber, the Bottom 2 The Top Club is the second so-called Gentlemen&#8217;s Club to open in downtown St. Petersburg in the three&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[From Bill Maxwell, in today&#8217;s St. Petersburg Times: &#8211; When I moved to St. Petersburg in 1994, downtown was on virtual life support. The place was dreary, especially at night. &#8211; Being a movie buff, I was disappointed that I had to drive to the Tyrone Square Mall or nearby Crossroads or Pinellas Park to see Dirty Harry and the Terminator blow away bad guys. I hadn&#8217;t hung out in bars since graduate school in Chicago, so I didn&#8217;t worry&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Before Mark returned to Louisville, he fulfilled his promise to take me out for my 30th birthday. Our friend Sharon joined up with us and we enjoyed a rather sublime evening at Bonefish, Ceviche and downtown St. Petersburg. Nothing too noteworthy, other than to say that throughout the night, I kept thinking how blessed I am to have friends that still make me laugh. So many guys have a difficult time keeping a friendship that doesn&#8217;t revolve around XBox, Hooters&#8230;]]></description>
