I Take Back Everything Bad I’ve Ever Said About the Florida Room
I was mean about it when the Florida Room moved in. You know, I was all, just what Jefferson High School needs — a bar across the street.
They even had some protesters from Jeff and elsewhere in the neighborhood show up at one point. (The “Church of the Bloody Mary” sign did come down, which many of us appreciated.)
But when the shootings happened, after the Jeff football game, homecoming and dance on Friday? Who was the first out on the street? The EMT-trained kitchen staff from the Florida Room. (BlackFriend left a note in comments). She says, “They wanted to make sure the kids were all right.”
That touches the heart of even a bitchy cynic like myself.
Thanks, you guys.
You are totally the most awesome “bitchy cynic” anywhere north of Me.
