BREAKING: Where do clowns go when they’re not busy clowning about in the circus? The Clown Bar, of course. Well, at least that’s where the seedy, shadowy underworld clowns hang out. These clowns are prostitutes, mobsters and killers, with names such as Giggles, Shotgun, Twinkles, Blinky and Timmy. They’re as likely to shoot you as they are to squirt water in your face. If you’re not scared of clowns, this play could do it for you, though you’ll probably be too...

Drowsy driver crashes caused 2.4 percent of the 153,297 fatal crashes from 2011 to 2015 and 2 percent of the 8.1 million crashes that involved injuries, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Wrecks caused by drowsy drivers can occur virtually any time — late at night, early pre-dawn hours or midafternoon. Drowsiness leads to impaired attention and slows down mental processing. Warning signs of drowsy driving include difficulty remembering the past few miles driven, yawning or blinking frequently, missing an exit, and hitting the rumble strip of the side of the road or center lane. Teens ages 13-18...

Least-competent criminal Convicted drug smuggler Mike Gielen, 24, hired a helicopter at Deurne airport near Antwerp, Belgium, on Sept. 25, then hijacked the aircraft in mid-flight and forced the pilot to fly to Berkendaal women’s prison south of Brussels to free his wife, Kristel Appelt, 27, who is being held there on suspicion of murdering an ex-boyfriend, The Guardian reported. As inmates cheered and waved below, the pilot circled the prison yard, trying unsuccessfully to land, while Gielen put his head out of the chopper to vomit five times, before giving up and flying off. Authorities arrested Gielen and several...

Dean Park Historic District is postponing its 100th Anniversary Historic House Tour until further notice. The tour had originally been scheduled for March 28, then postponed to Dec. 5, due to the coronavirus pandemic. A new date for the tour will be announced at a later date. Dean Park, one of the oldest subdivisions in Fort Myers, officially came into being on May 1, 1920, when John Morgan Dean filed the Dean’s Subdivision map with the Lee County Clerk of the Court. The map shows 91 lots, with streets named Rhode Island after Mr. Dean’s home state and Providence after...
BREAKING: Florida James Hunt, 41, and his girlfriend got into it at a Clearwater Burger King on Aug. 13, because “the victim was not eating her food,” The Smoking Gun reported. When the 53-year-old woman left the restaurant, Hunt followed her and launched his cheeseburger at the back of her head, allegedly causing her to fall over a curb onto the ground and hit her chin and lip. How did cops know? There was blood on her shirt and shorts and...

There’s been a lot of talk, mostly On Nov. 8, 1994, the day 50.8% of voters gave “Walkin” Lawton Chiles, the incumbent, a slim victory over challenger Jeb Bush in the race for Florida governor, 74% of voters did something even more remarkable: They passed a constitutional amendment requiring the state to ban entanglement nets — so-called gill nets — used by commercial fishers. It took effect beginning the following July, 25 years ago.

THERAPISTS ARE UNPREDICTABLE. And sometimes mercurial, inspiring, demanding and downright dangerous. Also peerlessly beautiful, at least in Byron Stout’s view. The first time he met his therapist (he thinks of her as a muse) he’d turned 6 just the day before. Outfitted in shiny new birthday cowboy boots, his first ever, young Byron was investigating a water-filled ditch outside the little Stout family home on Congress Street, in Fort Myers, not far from the big Thomas and Mina Edison home— two seemingly different worlds, at least economically. They weren’t so different, though. The families had been friends for years —...
