We often argue about who lives in the kookiest state. Different kinds of kooks, to be sure, but we're trying to establish *degree* of kookiness. After all, I live in a state that elected the Terminator as governor. Then again, they have Jeb. I think I'll take Arnie, but not by a lot. :) Joyce > > "Matthew" <Iamacatslave@proudtoserve.com> wrote in message > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > > Joyce Jeb is gone it is Crist now.

It's about equally divided between fake-tanned lipo addicts flying by at about 95, and the grannies on phone books, tootling long at about 45, and the semis in between. Of course the fake-tanned lipo addicts are often grannies, too. :P I have grown to really love Florida, though, although I had serious culture shock when Dad first moved down there. I get kind of freaked out for a couple of hours, but once I get out on the patio with a mojito, it's smooooooooth sailing. ;) Helloooo. little geckos!!!! ;) > "Matthew" <Iamacatslave@proudtoserve.com> wrote in message >> Jeb is gone it is Crist now. Please lets not go there ;-) Well there you go. Shows you what I know!! (He did have 2 terms, though, right? I just thought the 2nd term was still going.) > It is sure interesting driving down I-95.

Well, except for hurricanes. :) But you can't beat the beaches and the balmy winters. But I refuse to visit my family during the warmer months. The latest (of the spring months) I've gone there was April, and that was pushing it. The ideal time, IMO, is January. People are still recovering from holiday travel so nobody's visiting Florida then. And it's not Spring Break yet. March isn't bad, either. I definitely owe my family a visit this coming winter because I didn't make it back there last year. Joyce > <jXwXeXrXmXoX...@sonic.net> wrote in message > [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > > - Show quoted text - Sounds like a Zombie movie. I belong to a Yahoo Group for movie lovers. Two of the "guys" keep coming up with Zombie movie ideas. Naked Zombie Cheer Leaders Showering is a recurring theme. Now we're discussing Johnny Depp as a vampire. We ladies are participating in this one ;o) My parents live in Florida too. No they're not Zombies.

Florida, world capital of wacko introduced species (just like > the wacko introduced people :P). The Australians got them first - known as "cane toads" there. One of the funniest films I have ever seen is an Australian documentary, "Cane Toads: An Unnatural History", about what the toads have done to Australia and what the Australians are doing to them. Maybe my favourite scene was the very, very old couple who looked rather toadlike themsleves talking about how they enjoyed sitting out on their lawn on warm nights listening to the toads mating. ============== j-c ====== @ ====== purr . demon . co . uk ============== Jack Campin: 11 Third St, Newtongrange EH22 4PU, Scotland | tel 0131 660 4760 <http://www.purr.demon.co.uk/jack/> for CD-ROMs and free | fax 0870 0554 975 stuff: Scottish music, food intolerance, & Mac logic fonts | mob 07800 739 557 =8^P) >> http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/local/state/orl-toads1207nov12,0,4675046.sto ry?track=rss > > Jeez Louise.

Here in Florida the news media are not allowed to report how illegal products are made or used such as crack etc. The article does not report that young people are licking the toads to get high off the milky white substance that it excretes. The media adopted a rule a few years ago when abc news reported about the angel trumpet flower and how people got high using it. Well they reported it wrong and it led to several deaths and comas. It is start even thought you can go on the internet and find out how to do anything.
