Have you ever had your picture in the Daily Sun?
 
Have you ever had your picture in the Daily Sun? What was it in there for? Did any strangers recognize you and comment on it? Arrests and criminal activity are strongly encouraged!:laugh:

Never had it in the Daily Sun, but check often at the Post Office to see if I am there.

Wife was interviewed on SS square one day about favorite vacation destinations. A few days later the picture was at the bottom of the front page. Neighbors brought it over to show us.

Sandy and I went to the ribbon cutting ceremony for the opening of the Tamarind Grove pool/facility and got our mug shots in the paper.............. :shocked: One of our TV neighbors came running across the street to our place the next day, waving the newspaper, to show us the picture. Now if THAT was the high point of their day.................. :jester:

I was in the paper playing my horn during a practice. My wife was in for a book club and memoirs group.

Been in, in a group picture of our ladies golf group. Also had a short interview for our neighborhood social group and that was in the supplement section for clubs and activities.

Picture and story appeared in Daily Sun a few years ago.
 
I had a story written by Gary Corsair about my work trying to get information about state and local victims' rights resources linked from local public library web pages. This was from Lake, Sumter and Marion County Library Systems.

Along that line, a Daily Sun photographer had taken a picture of me working on my computer.

Back then, I had successful persuaded Lake County Public Library system to put in a link to the Florida Victim Services Directory.
http://myfloridalegal.com/directory

With all the budget cuts though and other financial problems and whatever other reasons this link has since disappeared. http://www.mylakelibrary.org/interne...ew=links&id=19

I had been working on getting links to the Florida Victim Services Directory made from libraries of all kinds in FL since around 2000.

Over the summer I was in the paper under Villager Spotlight, where you list your favorite movie, pool, rec center, candy, food and car. People at the rec center did come up to me to say they saw me in the paper. jackie
