Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

Just being a smartass:fdance:

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

Anyone ever been banned before? ;)

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

Only once by accident:excited:


although I can sense one coming rather quickly.....:)

I was in the band.
 

Back when I was in high school.
Never got to go to band camp though.:crying:

Re: I was in the band.
 

Hhahaha. You BAND NERD. We called 'em "bandies" in high school.

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

Yes!!! :p

And its hot, always hot, even when its cold it is hot! Lots of bugs! to much or not enough rain, Tornado's and Hurricanes, plus we even get a fire storm once a year. Snakes, gators and all sorts of nasty varmits. Thugs and gangs have taken over. Space program going to sh!t. Over building and development has ruined everything. Bingo and shuffleboard have taken over as the number one sport. Insurance rate are so high now that you need to take out a 2nd mortgage to avord it. Our Gov't doesn't give a crap about anyone but themselves. Our roadsd can't handle the traffic from the over development. Our reef is dieing and now out Gulf is about to be destroyed. Ship's clean out their sewage within 3 miles of the beaches and spill garbage and oil, so that we cna find treasure on the beaches.
Other than that, its a great place to visit. But don't move here.

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

oh yeah! Don't foget all the damn ants and cock-a-roaches or as we call them Palmetto bugs. They can crawl on you as you sleep and you never know.

HAHAHAHAhahaha!

"THE SUNSHINE STATE, my arse"

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

That's where I came over on the boat Mang! 1980 was the jear, me and Chico started our freedom from our Communist dictator.

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

If everything else about Florida was total paradise, that fact in itself would keep me away. AHHHHHHH!

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

Wow, a lot of negativity. What about all the good stuff? Like the cocaine that washes ashore here? Approximately $100M worth of cocaine washes up PER 1000ft of coastline every single year. Simply owning ocean front property in FL is one of the most profitable occupations in the US. We also have one of America's last "wild wests", you can get away with anything in the everglades. Can't find that anywhere else.

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

Don't worry, the scorpions crawling on your sleeping body will deter the cockroaches.

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

Funny thing you didn't mention bugs before K9. I'm having second and third thoughts...

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

I thought I heard you squealing out there when we drove across last year.

Hold on now. I believe we glanced past this too quickly:jump:

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

8 hour in layover in Miami killed any chance of me going to FL again.
Toooooo humid

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

SHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! :shhh:

Why do you think I live on the beach, Sh!t hold on, I drop my gold straw.
Oh dang thats right I forgot about the scorpians. If you pour gas all around them and set it on fire, they will kill themselves.
:D

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

Its good for your skin, you won't dry out!

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

True, I totaly forgot about all of them, I am used to them now. I also have a good pest control company that does my house and park.
We feed the bugs to the lizards and then the lizards to the birds.
LOL, We have one of the largest bug removale industries going.

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

You forgot to mension the worse thing about Florida...

All the old people from up north move down here. :giggling:

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

I might be able to stomach the boring beach lifestyle, the saggy flesh, the bluehairs, the humidity, the lack of anything recreational to do, the lack of beautiful geography, the constant rain, and the intense heat.

But NO WAY could I deal with those bugs. :eek:





oh, btw Ken....we don't have any bugs in CO.

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

You want a real bad visual, think of what you said above and then apply it to a nudist beach.....

:p :jump:

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

Hold on, I need my reading glasses....

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

In Middle School I used to take water color classes in this woman's attic afterschool. She was an amazing teacher and there were only 3 kids in a class and I think she had only 2.

Anyway, it was me, a girl named Laurie and this guy Michael in the Tues/Thurs class. I had grown up with Michael- from a distance, in elementary school etc. He started getting weird in the 5th grade or so. He was a talented artist- not amazinly talented- but talented and he was very bizzare. Kinda like the artistic homo brother in "Wedding Crashers", but not a homo, at least I don't think so- could be- it doesn't matter.

Anyway, he was weird. Just would peer over his shoulder at me from the easel if he thought I was checking out his stuff. His hair was just stickin up all over the place all the time like he was attacked by 5 cows and they all licked his head at once- beady little eyes, you get the picture.

Anyhow, I later heard Michael and his family went to FL to vacation for a couple of weeks and a dead Haitian had washed up in the water or surf next to him.:D:D

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

WTF??
Did he paint it?

I remember coming up on some Cubans while on patrol in the keys, Man they had a 3 cyl engine mounted in the middle of this old wooden boat. I have no Idea how that thing even floated or for that matter even got as far as it did.

But that somehow reminds me of all the Banana spiders down here, they are fun to play with....

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

Silly Haitians are always doing things like that here. Personally, I think they are just looking for attention. We have some real good Haitian swimming jokes, but you have live here to hear them.

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

I never knew what happened to Michael (I went to a private school soon after), I am sure he painted and prolly still is.:giggling:

Isn't there also like hundereds of sharks down there? Who knows how much Haitian meat has been consumed.

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

First off you two Florida TURDS, I'm trying to sell 2 houses here and your not helping... LOL

Just so you all know they are both joking.

We have no cockroches or bugs of any kind and if you want to see cockroaches visit New York City in the summer and you will see hundreds of billions of them. Shuffelboard was banned 6 years ago. Its against the law to sell blue hair dye. The old people here are YOUR grandparents (come and visit them, buy my houses). There are more cubans in Georgia then in Florida. There are more Haitians in New York then in Florida. The mosquioes in Alaska are bigger then they are in Florida. The schools system in Florida is rated in the top 10% in the country. Florida has one of the best road systems in the country. Florida has the second fastest growing business community in the United Stated. It is THE GATEWAY to Central and South America. Yesterday, Sunday it was 80* F. What was it where you are??? Today, Monday I drove to the Florida Keys for Lunch, had the sweetest Fried Oysters I have ever had. There are lots of HUMMER Dealers so you can purchase them at a great price. We have fewer tornadoes them most states. The women are A-1. I have not turned my heat on in over 7 years. and on and on and on...

Can someone decipher that acid trip for me?
Do you think going cold turkey on the coffee was such a good idea?

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

I dunno. I drank some tewnite for Heroes. I think it makes me talkitive. :jump:

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

Boca Rattan was pleasant enough when I visited in December 2004. Haven't experienced summer there yet.

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

Hey D, RYD just called us TURDS! :D

HI RYD, Sorry! I forgot your trying to sell and move to GA. But have you heard what goes on in GA...?? :giggling: especially up there in them hills.

:jump:

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

Thats where i'm moving, to DEM HILLS... gota see fur meself...

RYD

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

Yeah RYD I looked into that area, But not into gated communites and associations. Another one of us has a place in Murphy NC, that area seems nice also. And I keep going back and looking in WVA.

I am wanting to move to the mountains somewhere myself, just can't seem to find what I am looking for. I want the snow, and the heat, I want woods and fishing streams. I want land, and a view.
I want all this, and my Gf wants none of it........

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

This is not rocket science. You are clearly destined for Southern Colorado - San Juan Mountains. Maybe you should try Durango.

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

Remember the movie, "Deliverance"? :giggling:

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

OMG, I remember when I had lived in Miami (Coral Gables) and just got home from the flea market .. also known as a "Farmers Market". I bought a huge plant and hung it temporarily on the bathroom. I went in to take a shower .. moved the plant and got in the shower. AGHHHHHH!!! A HUGE .. HUGE banana spider was inside the shower with me on the wall. 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.

Re: Anyone ever been to Florida?
 

Yeah, Murphy is real nice and JUST WEST of there is Ranger. That the area they found the Atlanta Bomber hiding in.

Look at Cloudland in N.W. Georgia, its SUPER...
