The March 27 article – Council Ousted – by Walker Holmes was an April Fools article. In it, Holmes claims to have found a missing page of the city charter that states the council can only serve two terms. Gov. Crist removes them from office and the Attorney General is reportedly investigating whether the offending council persons have to pay back their salaries. The single one-term councilman, Sam Hall, must also step down because on the back of the missing page is a clause that says no one named Sam can ever hold public office in Pensacola.

Tell Bill I’m sorry if I caused any problems for his office.
