It was the biggest, furriest thing I had ever seen! It obviously was inside the plant and crawled out. I jumped out of the shower to get a shoe to kill it .. and the thing jumped off the shower wall!!! I finally got it, but not without difficulty. And, another thing ... the palmetto bugs (aka cockroaches) ... they fly. They are a given in Florida ... they live in the palm trees and always get into the homes. In NY, it has to do with dirty places. In FL, Palmetto bugs (roaches) are part of the locale/climate .. and they do come into your homes .. and fly at night. I left S. FL because I hate humidity (never a break .. it's year round no matter what RYD tells you), the bugs ... and I don't speak Spanish.

#1 thing in South Florida... You NEVER NEVER kill a spider. They eat 4 times their weight in bugs every day. when I was growing up the next door neighbor have a free roaming pet spider named Betty.

YES!!!! there is a what we call the "shark dance" on some days we have to high step over the sharks to paddle out to surf.

the high steping is the "Shark Dance" but for as many sharks that are here, you would think that we would have more bites. I am more wooried about the Man-a-wars and Gators and the crack heads, less Anna Nichol.

Shark dance! You are crazy. You do remember that these are what sharks are, right?! I think the proper response is to quickly go into shock, pee/poop yourself and cry when you encounter one.

I've read that for every 1000 feet of shoreline, 12 shark attacks occur each year. On average, every resident will be bitten once every 6 years.

That is true. Let's not forget about the attacks on tourists either, now that is even more shocking.

That may be true, but half of the FL population never even gets near the beach or gulf. So those mumbers should be higher. And remember if you go out in the water, make sure you have a few friends - this will cut the odds down and hopefully in your favor. And if your on a raft or surfboard YOU will look like a seal from below.

This one got a guy while sleeping in his Orlando home about 2 years ago. Apparently he was going on 11 years without being bitten by a shark and was long over due.

If you look at the color of the water those are California Sharks, not Florida...

Yep, South Beach is nice :) with all the Europeans... Ahhh south beach and Coconut Grove. Man I need to come down there. Get a room in one of those lil trendy hotels and just chill.

x2 on South Beach. Hope to never see you topless down there RYD. I'll go in the water, jet ski, etc.. down there and in the keys, but not in like daytona beach anymore. The ocean gets more scccuurrrry as you get further north. Sharks are more relaxed in south fl.
