"God works in mysterious ways." Just when the little City of Lake Worth needed a comedic break. . .

Mike Olive, of "Jesus hates religion" fame, wants to take over the Bamboo Room in downtown Lake Worth. The Post's Kevin Thompson has this news that might be in the print edition tomorrow or they'll save it for Monday's Lake Worth special day. If you didn't know, six cities, the very same six cities in Palm Beach County, get their special day of the week. Every week. For who knows how long. Maybe until all the other cities get fed up with the lack of attention.
Lake Worth gets featured in the Post every Monday. Each and every Monday until the End Times?
In a spiritual twist, maybe all of Olive's prayers for Lake Worth did help after all. On March 15th the City was at a crucial crossroad, would Lake Worth move forward or regress back to the past? As you know, all of the incumbents won re-election by landslides. Just something to think about.

Here are two excerpts from the article:

     "Mueller [Ryan Mueller of RJM Real Estate] stressed nothing is final.
     'Right now it’s still in discussions and we’re talking about it,' Mueller said. 'We’re close but until it’s in writing, it means nothing.' "

[and. . .]
     
     "Commissioner Andy Amoroso, who runs Studio 205 and Java Juice Bar on Lake Avenue, has been critical of Olive in the past.
     'He’s catering to sober homes,' Amoroso said. 'I have a problem with him bringing in busloads of sober home people you’re supposed to be helping to an entertainment business. If that’s what he’s going to do, more power to him.' "

While on the topic, do know how many churches are in the City of Lake Worth? Using this link there are about 30 in the City (many on the list are in suburban Lake Worth). When it comes to churches there are a lot of choices.
