Carla Gugino was born in Sarasota.

Although many people may recognize her from "The Watchmen" and "Sin City", this Florida-born actress will always be known to me as Pauly Shore's girlfriend in "Son-In-Law".

Remember? Her little brother was the hilarious freckled redhead from "The Sandlot"!

Now THAT is a great movie!

Story of the Day

Holy Hattori Hanzo!

Some chick in Land O' Lakes pulled a ninja sword on her boyfriend during a domestic dispute.

Apparently the girl's boyfriend was on the phone with his ex-wife and she wasn't having it.

Ninja girl says her guy slapped her first, but he says she started the fight and slapped her in defense.

Regardless, the slapping lead to the ninja sword which lead to a 911 call, which lead to this entry.

Unfortunately for us, the girl's mug shot photo does not include the sword or a ninja costume!

When I read the headline on this story, I automatically knew it had to have happened in Florida.

A man was arrested in Clearwater after leaving two small children in his car while going to...here it comes...

a strip club

The kids, ages 3 and 4, were found unharmed but the police are unsure if the kids are related to the stripper enthusiast.

Maybe their mom works AT the strip club and he was just touching base with her about the kids?!

To quote my personal hero Jerri Blank, "The bacon strip's sizzlin'!"

A lady working at a Perkins restaurant in Stuart (East Coast FL) was arrested after a co-worker saw her put 3 pounds of bacon in her purse.

3 pounds! Yummers!

When police booked her in jail, they found she also had drugs on her.

Check out the rest of the story, as well as the "delicious" mugshot of the bacon thief at Perkins employee arrested for stealing bacon

I've personally never eaten at a Perkin's but there was one down the road from my college and it just wasn't as appetizing as eating at, let's say, Shoney's.

Story of the Day

In the words of Billy Joel "We didn't start the fire" but this lady did! To herself!

A woman set herself on fire while at the Mall of the Americas in Miami yesterday.

The 43 year old woman poured flammable liquid on herself and subsequently suffered third degree burns on over 75% of her body.

Witnesses were understandably shocked at the sight of this woman walking very slowly and on fire.

Super freaky!

Dexter Morgan is a blood-splatter analyst in the forensics department for the Miami Metro Police Department.

When not analyzing crime scenes, or cleaning up his own crime scenes, Dexter can be found hanging out with his girlfriend, dealing with his sister, and having flashbacks with his father.

He has a killer eye for detail and if you have it coming to you, Dexter will make sure you get it!

Story of the Day

Familiar with the saying "if it's too good to be true, it's probably not"?

Well that's exactly what happened at a Best Buy in Kissimmee when a bunch of shoppers showed up to buy a 52 inch high definition television for only $9.99!

The manager of the store told everyone waiting to get their hands on "cheap" TV that Best Buy was NOT honoring the online deal because it was a mistake.

That totally sucks because many businesses will give you the price a product is listed as, even if it's a mistake.

No news on how long the mistake was online for.

WTF Miami??

When the South Florida owner of "Geronimo", a beautiful brown and white horse, reported him missing, she didn't expect he would be found dead under a tree.

Apparently, 19 horses have been killed in Southeast Florida since January---and many believe they are being killed for their meat.

Although the police believe it is too premature to form a motive, a member of the SPCA believes that horses are being killed for their meat by people of different nationalities.

Miami is a melting pot of many, many cultures, and I guess in some of these cultures, eating meat is legal.

This is SO disgusting.

I hope Geronimo didn't die in vain, and that the awareness this story has brought will put an end to such a heinous crime.

G.I. Ho!

The owner of a "dancing" troupe in Florida has just released footage of "G.I. Joe" star, and Tampa-raised, Channing Tatum, stripping.

Turns out Channing was a "dancer" for over a year for an all male revue called "Male Encounter" back in 1999.

What a bad name---not catchy like "Thunder Down Under!"

The video is pretty scandalous, considering he gets down to a thong and gyrates. Quite a bit.

Try not to laugh at how silly he looks in nothing but a thong and gym socks!

Jude Law's happy-go-lucky Vespa riding days have hit a bump, a baby bump you could say.

It's been announced that model Samantha Burke from Pensacola is pregnant with Jude's fourth child.

Jude and Samantha are not currently dating.

I'm not at all surprised Jude fell for the charms of a Florida girl.
What I am surprised about is that he wouldn't practice safe sex when he's worth a lot of money and there are a lot of ladies with bad intentions out there.

But not Samantha, because Florida girls are good girls *wink*
