Last week, I mused on why Florida needs to get on the ball when it comes to decriminalizing marijuana, and I attended the Bob Dylan concert with thousands of other fans at the Stephen C. O’Connell Center. Some would like to use that anecdotal evidence to further their claims of me as a “stoner.”
My father is a man of few words.
Stadium Club, the partially constructed luxury condominium building on University Avenue across from Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, will be auctioned today.

In a marketing move some are calling greasy, unhealthy and hideous, not much unlike the criticisms of its artery-clogging sandwich laden with 32 grams of fat, KFC is paying (supposedly) good-looking girls at a handful of colleges across the nation to promote its death-defying sandwich with the words “Double Down” on the buns of specially-designed sweatpants.

I want to thank The Alligator for the extraordinary opportunity given to me. It is a great privilege to be allowed to write a column.
I wrote last week that Bryan Griffin’s columns were unoriginal. In addition to his radically conservative views, the fact The Alligator fired him for his plagiarism shows he is unfit for any public office. When you go to the polls this November, be sure to vote against him for Alachua County Soil and Water Seat 4.
When I first read Bryan Griffin’s Thursday column, I found it encouraging he would attempt to broaden his horizons and break from his normal pattern of beating Republican talking points. However, when it came to my attention Griffin had plagiarized, I could only feel disappointed. Griffin and I rarely agreed on political issues during our four years together as undergraduates, but I always thought he took his paeans to justice and American values seriously. Sadly, I was mistaken.
