Lorenzo's home in Seminole Heights in Tampa, is being carefully searched by Tampa Police for possible clues this week. Lorenzo is in Hillsborough County Jail custody and accused of drugging and raping 6 men. He is charged with distribution of date rape drugs. Police are keeping a closed lip about the possible connection to the missing gay men. FMI

The New Drink

Vodka, Soda, Splash of Cranberry
Everybody is drinking them and wondering where they came from. Our friends Chuck & George introduced them to us. So here is the answer.
 
Markie,
     Just remembered to email you with the gossip bit from Ft. Lateda.  Those pink drinks had their origin with our favorite attorney, Lance many years ago ( and I do mean many years ago...I think Lance was 12 and I was 4).  I can only take credit for introducing them to you.   Anyway on a trip to LA, a bartender told me they were called a "Ruby Slipper".  I've called them that ever since except when Jonathon at the Suncoast Resort, makes them and I've had a few....then they're "Pink Thangs". 
    On a recent trip to Lauderdale, I ordered my fave drink at Georgies' in Wilton Manors.  Lo and behold they have another name.....those South Florida boys order it with Absolute and call it the "Absolute Rose Kennedy"- named after the grande dame of Palm Beach society.  I was too young to ever see her drink one, but maybe Lance can verify the name.....I'm sure he was there.  LOL.    Chuck

OUTBACK GUEST
U.S. Senator Rick Santorum, R-Pa., was in town 2 weeks ago to make political hay with the Terri Schiavo case. In an Associated Press interview he responded to a question about homosexuality:

And if the Supreme Court says that you have the right to consensual sex within your home, then you have the right to bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have the right to incest, you have the right to adultery. You have the right to anything. Does that undermine the fabric of our society? I would argue yes, it does. “

While in Florida he attended a fundraiser in Tampa hosted by Outback Steakhouse executives. Remember that the next time you head to an Outback, Carrabba’s, or Bonefish Grill.

THE NEW POPE
Tomorrow is Hitler's Birthday and the Vatican who backed and financed and covered-up their support for Hitler and the Holocaust and now come out to pick the German Cardinal who was a Hitler youth, and then the media said wasn't charged with any war crimes.
 
We are also marking this month, as the 60th anniversary of the liberation of the German 'Death Camps" in Bergen Belsen where 150,000 were murdered, and Buchanwald were 150,000 were murdered, and Sauchenhausen where 150,000 were murdered and Ravensbrook for women where 100,000 were murdered, among  very many other 'death camps' liberated by the U.S., Britian and Russia.
 
Will this Pope continue John Paul's efforts to Vaticanize and Christianize the Holocaust with their crosses and religious institutions at these 'death camps', which are the world's largest Jewish cemeteries?
This weekend is the Passover, as we Jews and Jesus the Jew, attended the Seder, as his Last Supper, remember our oppression under Pharoah and the miracle of our liberation from slavery.
Could the Vatican have done a greater slap in the face to the Jews, and all victims of the Nazis, since all those Cardinals believe that their decision is infused with their " Holy Spirit"?
In other words if a Hitler youth can become Pope, then perhaps the Catholic Church's support for Hitler was justified after all, and God endorsed the Holocaust.
We have come full circle, and for those who see these times as the 'end times', the 'anti-Christ' has just been chosen by the Vatican.
 
The German Pope has chosen the name Benedict XVI, while Benedict XV, was the Pope during WWI, also started by Germany, where 10 millions were destroyed. It was that Benedict's politics as so-called 'peacemaker', that led to the rise of Hitler and the Nazi movement, which is celebrating today with their victory in the Vatican.
The new Pope is the #1 reactionary Cardinal and the Vatican's theological enforcer for the last 25 yrs., who only yesterday in delivering his mass said: "We are moving towards a 'dictatorship of relativism' which does not recognize anything as certain and which has as its highest goal one's own ego and one's own desires."
Didn't Reagan start the "Me Generation", and didn't Reagan go to Bitburg, Germany in 1985 to honor the SS Nazi murderers buried there, and urged to go there by another good Catholic, Pat Buchanan who wrote his speeches?
If the people have lost faith in the Vatican is that our fault, or  a rejection of the insane politics that have emerged from the Vatican?
 
This Pope added yesterday that "relativism- letting ourselves be carried away by any wind of doctrine- is made to appear the only attitude acceptable in today's times," and reflects the failing of the Church all over Europe and in the U.S. and around thw world.
From John Paul to Benedict, the Catholic population has gone from 700 millions to 1.5 Billion, and 'Big Business', while churches and catholic schools are closing all over the place in the U.S. and elsewhere.
So to offer 'birth control' for an overcrowded planet, that's destroying all of its natural resources would be called 'relevatism' by this Pope, instead of responsibility not to overpopulate, which adds to poverty and the wars and terrorism that emerge from that dogma.
Tthey praise this new Pope for loving Mozart, and what Nazi didn't?
This Pope has been overseeing the disciplining of hundreds of priests and religious scholars who have strayed from 'acceptable' Catholic teachings, most outside of Africa and South America seem to be ignoring.
The Vatican went for its most conservative Cardinal with a shadowy past. So much for going for the future instead of burying its head instead in the past, that may well doom it and the rest of us altogether.
Will this German Pope address the over 200,000 New Nazi attacks in Germany since Reunification, in 1990 besides the sweep of new anti-Semitism all across Europe?
Willl this German Pope support compensation for Holocaust survivors of slave labor and the death camps?
 
Will this German Pope open the Vatican books on its role during WWII, and return to the Jewish people the $millions in stolen Jewish holy books, Torahs and artifacts,etc, sitting under the Vatican today?
So much of the world liked John Paul ,but not his song.
If 'birth control' is 'relativism' then will this Pope continue the hypocracy to 'save the fetus', while 11 million children alone die annually by neglect, who could be saved just by vaccinations?
Of course the $1billion paid out to those sexually abused by the Vatican's pedophile priests and nuns,just in the U.S., might help the poor to survive, but then not only is this Vatican divorced from the reality of this scandal, of at least 5000 kids by 1200 priests, but this Vatican rewards former Archbishop Law of Boston to preside over a high-profile mourning Mass for John Paul.
Law looked away at all the priests under his charge involved with this sex scandal, and the Vatican turned its back on the victims and instead supported those irresponble for this mess.
 
Is this 'relativism'?
So what's new?  The German Pope wants to maintain that 'iffallibility' ruse that nobody is buying by example.  Most Germans didn't want this German Pope, and now he brings back to everyone's mind his Hitler youth backround to remind the world of Germany's crimes against humanity then and now.
Imagine John Paul saying to destroy his papers, and they all call for his 'privacy rights' to be honored, instead of trying to find out what scandals he and the Vatican are involved in ,that's destroying so very many lives, we might find out about if those papers were preserved and investigated.
 
Is this 'relativism'?
Some in the Vatican are urging condom use to deter Aids, which is the huge genocide already destroying 20 millions( 90% heterosexual) and 500,000 in the U.S.(mostly Gay), while The Vatican wasted 20 years arguing 'condoms' vs. 'abstinence' politics and doing 'gay bashing' instead of focusing on multiple viruses and multiple mutations and a long incubation period.  So while 100 millions are infected and the poor can't afford the drugs, is this more 'relativism' this Pope will continue to enforce?
 
Benedict is the oldest Cardinal chosen in 200 years, is it to reinforce the reactionaryism within the Vatican?
Will Benedict deal with Islamic terrorism and Arab oil Blackmail that could destroy the global economies and infuse more violence and wars?
Will this Pope rally to decrease global warming and other threats to the survival of this planet, or is Armageddon his agenda to fulfill prophecies?
With so few priests coming foward, why then is this Vatican ignoring women, divorce, marriages, among so many of the political diversions its wasting so much time trying to enforce and the masses are walking away from?
 
Then we get to the 'Gay Bashing' politics ingrained within the Vatican, who lash out with their enslavement politics, as a coverup for so many Gays in the Church, that have nothing to do with the pedophile sex abusers inundating the Church.
 
So the Cardinals met in the Sistine Chapel created by that infamous homosexual Michaelangelo, while they pontificate their heterosexism, amidst 25 millions reading the "DaVinci Papers" that suggest that Jesus married Mary Magdalin and fostered a child.  Or the others who see this persecution of Gays, as persecuting a 33 yr. old single man, also gay, involved with a 12 other men.
Any different from persecuting and murdering Jews for 2000 years, while praying to Christ the Jew?
Pope Benedict in WWI, Pope Pius XII, Hitler's Pope, and the genocides in Cambodia and Vietnam, and 140 other conflicts including Korea. Then Pope John Paul II, Arafat's Pope and the Aids and Rwanda and Sudan genocides.
Perhaps 200 millions lost their lives during the reigns of these 3 Popes.
What can we expect from Benedict XVI, a member of the Hitler Youth, and the most reactionary Cardinal in the Vatican?
 
This isn't just a Catholic issue, but one of how all of our lives will be shaped by the politics of this Vatican and the scandals it will continue to pursue to the detriment of all of our lives.
Is G-d working in mysterious ways?  Or in the Vatican's interpretation, has G-d endorsed the Vatican's support for the Holocaust, with going with Benedict.
These are very dangerous times. 
Has Benedict sealed our fate for even more dangerous times?
 
Yours Faithfully,
