Gone fishin' in Florida From the Page 2 mailbag |

I don't care if your brother is president. You can't make me eat that crap! Keith Saurin Tempe, Ariz. Billy Marlin is horrified as the Governor takes a heaping serving of seafood newburgh. Len Skoros East Meadow, N.Y. "C'mon, Jeb! Can't you get me into the Lincoln bedroom for just one night? Pleeeeeease?" Adam Holtz Mankato, Minn. Let me know if you guys need me to fix the pennant race too ... Tim Lowell, Mass. After previous stadium funding campaign fails, the Marlins send a new lobbyist who can relate to Florida Gov. Jeb Bush on his level. Scott Kraft West Palm Beach, Fla. Overheard: "Don't let this smile on my face fool ya, I voted for Gore." Vicar Warman Sarasota, Fla. "Hey Jeb, do you think anyone knows it's me in here?" -- George W. Carrie Honolulu, Hawaii Yeah, I know Roger Clinton used to set you up in the Lincoln Bedroom, but the best I can do is a steak burrito. Rich Desimone Columbus, Ohio No kidding.

Jeb Bush and the Marlins have agreed in principle to a trade that would send Katherine Harris and 300 Gore votes to the Marlins in exchange for Preston Wilson and a player to be named later.
