“A full-grown manatee, which can weigh more than 1,000 pounds, looks like the result of a genetic experiment involving a walrus and the Goodyear Blimp.”
Dave Barry
“What we've learned is the Florida manatee is genetically unique, and that it's isolated from manatees elsewhere in the Caribbean and the Yucatan. Because of their low genetic diversity, it causes concern but not alarm.”
Brian Bowen
“We want to be the top seed. Manatee has three losses in the district, but they could lose again. We have a very tough week coming up -- three games on the road all against good teams. If we play well, we'll have a chance.”
Craig Faulkner
“It is so sad when we, as residents of Manatee County cannot see we need the facility to address the needs of Manatee County residents.”
Barbara Harvey
“Old Cabbage Head was used at the Manatee Create Co., which was located only about a quarter-mile from here.”
Jay Duke
“She's by herself, she has no relatives in Manatee.”
Dave Bristow
“Roads must be built here in Manatee County. To give $100 to make you look good politically, when people here are dying on roads, it doesn't make sense.”
