There’s no better way to get back in the Florida-flow than to find a really good “Only in FLA” story. From Hernando County, home of the Fightin’ Leopards and the place I will always consider home, comes one of the more stupid arrest stories since the guy that got arrested for stealing oranges from his [...]

Ok, someone left a comment on the Cooter post aboout not knowing that turtles were called “Cooters”. Obviously, some people live under rocks. You’ve never heard of the Cooter Festival in Inverness, FL? You’ve never watched The Daily Show? Really people, get your heads out of the sand.
Jimmy Kimmel is fucking Ben Affleck
I have to follow up to a post from earlier in the month that had a video of Sarah Silverman and Matt Damon, appropriately titled “I’m fucking Matt Damon“. Jimmy responded by saying “When you take something I love, I take something you love”. Jimmy went the risky route in his response. This had the [...]

So, here’s the thing: Look at the header. It’s changed. Yep. We’re moving. Out of Florida. (Say it ain’t so!!!) Not too many people know this, but I used to be a very good market researcher in the aerospace & defense electronics industry, made a really nice salary, worked from home, and didn’t realize that [...]

The kids are in the final day of a 4-day holiday weekend, which sucks when you’re poor and can’t take them to do anything. Although, I did manage to come up with $20 to take the little one to Ollie Koala’s (like Chuckie Cheese, only better) yesterday while her sister was at a birthday party [...]

Big happenings down here in Florida this weekend: The Daytona 500 I don’t watch many races, but I follow Nascar enough to know the drivers. The races I do watch are mainly the super-speedways, but I loves me some Bristol – 1/2 mile oval, super-tight, lots of rubbing. Anything can happen. Anyway, if you’ve tried [...]
