• Rogers Towers attorney Bill Scheu is having great fun these days with his Cap’n Crist cereal boxes. Scheu debuted the boxes (which depict Crist looking very much like Cap’n Crunch) a couple of weeks ago at the Main Library when the Friends of the Library made a nice donation. Since then, Scheu has been asked for more than a few of the boxes — which are a knock on Crist’s budget cuts and were unsuccessfully confiscated by the mayor’s office. Scheu said Wednesday he sent one to Crist’s chief of staff and hasn’t gotten a response. There are plans to produce at least 40 more.
