This one is driving me nuts. It's really close to a lot of fonts, but not quite there. It's from the classified section of a newspaper in Florida.
I hope I'm not missing something obvious. It doesn't match anything I have, and Identifont didn't lead me to the right one, either. Thanks!

Waitasecond ... Font Bureau's Poynter Agate?
I can't tell from their sample in their book, but it looks really close.
(OK, so I forgot I had their catalog...)

I'm pretty sure that's it.
Poynter Agate is a "call for pricing" font, so I'm guessing Font Bureau doesn't publish a full sample so as to keep it out of the hands of dirty, stinkin' font pirates.
BTW, Sept 19th is International Talk Like A Pirate Day. Pass it on, Mateys!
(Did you like that segue?)
