Trouble With Sixes


Sixes Jones a.k.a. Pop-O-Matic plays a mean game of Trouble. There isn't a man, woman or child in the whole state of Florida who can beat Pop-O-Matic. That man is made of sixes, and he's been known to take his guys all the way home, before anyone else can even pop that first six to get out of the gate. Of course, since he always wins he gets to choose what color he wants to be. Yellow. Always yellow. Yellow and sixes. That's what Pop-O-Matic is all about. Some say he looks a little mean, but he's not really. He's just very serious about the game of Trouble and has to focus really hard to keep those sixes coming.

Dropped Sixes over at Tropical Smoothies Cafe in the Harbor Shops at 1800 Cordova Road in Fort Lauderdale, which is the perfect places for him because Sixes is smooth. Sixes is now hiding behind a trash receptacle in the ladies room. While I was over that way, I noticed that Camille's Sidewalk Cafe was closed, which they apparently usually are on Saturdays ... but a closer look revealed big bright pink stickers on each door that said Federal Bankruptcy Court. Another places that sold wraps is now vacant as well. And I'm still mourning the loss of Moondoggies which had, in my opinion, some of the best coffee in town for the best prices and was just a great place all around.
