A comparison between Uber and taxi service in Tampa Bay by ABC Action News is FAKE NEWS!
ABC ACTION NEWS is a shill for Uber. At no time in this "demo" part 1 or Part 2 did they show a cab or an Uber car. In fact, they never stated which taxi service they called. Bad journalism. I bet the whole fucking thing was made up to pimp ride share. The service United Cab of Tampa provides is very fast. You could call 911 and we will get there before the police do. I really hate these guys being cheer leaders for ride share. You can see it in their face and body language.
I challenge ABC News Tampa to ride in my car and see how our computer GPS locator dispatch works and how it would be impossible for them to have received the service they just claimed happened. I am waiting for them to contact me. I bet they won't. Perhaps, I will contact this reporter with an invite to ride with me and see how fast my service is. I will not let this go.
A Google search of "Tim Fasano ABC Action News" yields more results then Adam Winer
Adam Winer barely shows up in a Google search..Is that Anthony Weiner I see?
I did a Google search of "Adam Winer ABC Action News" and there is only one photo of him. I did a search for "Tim Fasano ABC Action News" and I got a whole bunch of stuff from when I had been on their news show cast, with topics ranging from Bigfoot to Tampa International Airport and Taxi Driving. (try it yourself) Damn guy, I have been on your news cast more than you. At least on Google it would seem so.
Me and your co-reporter at Tampa International Airport

Here is the challenge: go with me to where I normally sit waiting for a fare at the time you said you contacted Uber on your app. You can contact them first, then use our app to contact us...we will win every time. Are you up to the challenge? I hope you don't have feet of clay for I want you to film the whole thing for your newscast.
A lyft car at the Iconic sign on Florida ave downtown Tampa I have been a hack in Tampa Florida since 1995. Unlike the estimated 50% of Americans that hate their jobs, I have never had a day when I did not feel like going to work. Certainly, the last few years have not been fun because the economy fell apart like a three dollar watch. However, economies are like tides and this one is on the rebound, at a snail's pace. I would like to thank Mr. Obama for that but that would not be fair. The economy is recovering despite any fiscal policy of his. That being said - there are challenges. My job is inherently difficult. We face strange and deranged people street level on a daily basis. Taxi companies in Tampa (which are regulated) must serve the general population. We have no choice. Short fares, drunk fares, people going to buy drugs (they don't tell you that) we must pick up. Don't get me wrong, there are business people, beautiful women, great trippers, and long haul...
Is there anything scarier than Hillary. Some would say Donald Trump, perhaps. My friend set this up on his porch and I thought it was pretty cool. It's not really a political statement, it's just trying to show humor. Keep in mind, that we do live in an era where people seem to have lost their sense of humor. Anyway, if he done it with Donald Trump I would have still laughed. Happy Halloween!
The redness and swelling are going away and I can actually walk now. I just have to stay on the antibiotics and dressing the wound. I should be in rare form soon. You have no idea how bad I've felt.
Billy Shuman 2005 Long time dispatcher and driver for United Cab of Tampa Billy Shuman has passed away. He was the last of a vanishing breed of cowboy dispatchers that could pitch 200 calls an hour and laugh at ya' while he did it. They are all gone now, Pirate, Sleepy, Justin, Shu. They were a group of guys from an era that will never be seen again. Sadly. Shu was the ultimate cab driver and dispatcher. He had a real tolerance for the job and I never saw him lose his cool. If you backed me in a corner, I would have to say Shu was the best dispatcher we ever had. He never got so wrapped up in the job that he did not enjoy life. He was a season ticket holder for the Bucs during the glory years. Because of Shu, I was able to attend many games and watched the Super Bowl Bucs play live. I will never forget that. Shu also loved animals. He fed every animal he ever saw. In fact, there was a great blue heron named Buddy that he fed in the backyard of his house on the Hillsborough ...
I don't like being robbed at Tampa International Airport The real reason Joseph W. Lopano let Uber and Lyft into TPA was he projected an increase in fees collected to be 5.2 million in the next two years. He seemed to view this as a revenue generating opportunity when the taxi companies were only able to come up with about 1.2 million a year. This was more than a reason to violate existing law. Joe Lopano (head of TPA) had a long range plan to soak the public and make a GIANT BONUS for himself. I wonder why he was fired in New York and flamed out in Dallas? Just wondering. The Tampa Bay Business Journal confirmed this fact the other day on their website. I knew he was corrupt and this proves it. Lopano stated that reason he let Uber and Lyft into the airport (violating the contract he had with the taxi companies) is he wanted to provide transportation alternatives to the traveling public. That was pure Bullshit. He simply saw how they could increase revenue long term by bilk...
Elena wanted me to post photos from Gabriel's first birthday party. Sorry I did not take more images but my phone went dead. Here is a stressed out hippy mama. You got to admit, Gabriel is a handsome young man. posted from Bloggeroid
I shot this video a couple years ago when my computer was functional. I really need to get a new one. Anyway, I hope you like this. I did put some work into it.
I was in downtown Tampa this afternoon and saw a photographer working with a model in a skimpy baseball uniform. It had to be for some New York publication. The Yankees are here for spring training. There had to be a connection. She did have nice legs. posted from Bloggeroid
It seems that I may have been the only person in recent years that has actually found Bigfoot. I am a cab driver and this short documentary is about what I go thru and what I have been doing long before the Animal Planet "Finding Bigfoot" was on TV. They consider me a maverick but screw 'em.
