Mickael Pietrus of our Orlando Magic is a great three point shooter, and Orlando fans are very appreciative for the role he plays on the court. However, Orlando fans might look at Pietrus a little different on the court when they see how he acts off the court. I'm not saying anything is wrong with this, but I have never seen a grown straight man scream like this!

Be careful of a rip off and scam artist on Craigslist in Orlando and Tampa sending messages using the email sannnaclaus@aol.com - they don't use a signature, and send offensive material for no reason whatsoever. Hopefully AOL bans this email address. However, I'm sure this scam artist will just open a new email account.

Seems as if the clubhouse downtown in Orlando, Florid has been closed down and evicted. It's interesting because they always seemed pretty busy, and they opened the second location on Sand Lake Road. However, the doors remain closed on both locations.......Let ItsMyOrlando.com know about any information you might know on why it went under? I know the location layouts are kind of a bowling lane, so that was probably not good for business.

Elton John was in town last Thursday performing for the McDonalds Convention. The show was pretty good and the McDonalds franchise owners got to catch a glimpse of a great performance. ItsMyOrlando.com was on hand as a guest and we enjoyed it!

You hear all about these Prostitution Busts and you probably wonder how do these people get caught? Well, frankly because people are stupid and on Craigslist. I am sure these guys just openly emailed these undercover agents and gave them all their information and then when asked to come party....Went! The baseball player being one of them, like it's a big surprise. What should really be written about is the number of guys that are probably married, have kids, girlfriends and are still on online at craigslist and backpage trolling for a good time.

Well, if you want to know about the newest craigslist scam it's this http://craiglistsafe.com/ - they have people from around the world trolling on the website to talk to you and then they want to connect with you by sending you to this website. No one uses this and it is a scam. You wonder why your identity gets stolen? Mostly because of websites like this. Never give your info. on websites that look like a scam, they look like a scam and not local they probably are! Always check the domain registrar at godaddy.com and see if it's private, etc. that should tell you.

I went over to Tires Plus in Orlando on South Conway road because my brakes happen to be going down a little further then usual. I figured I could get some new brake pads or shoes for $99 since I use to hear those commercials for just brakes on the radio. Well, after letting them take a look at the car for an hour or so, something I was charged for. The guy named Will comes and says if I want to take care of everything brakes and even the power steering which they noticed needed some replacement hose, the total would be almost $700. I threw up in my mouth and left.

If your looking for a car on eBay be careful of scams like the one from Susan Mirch. This is obvious an overseas scam artist looking to scam you through craigslist. They have an ad that has no email to contact them but a picture of the car and the email is on the ad.

Additionally, they will send you emails like this:

Hi,
I am sorry but the pick up and the test drive are not available because I am not in the country.
As I told you in my first e-mail, I am England. Before leaving I had prearranged the deal with eBay Motors so my presence isn't necessary.
