Another reason not to live in Florida

I forgot about the incessant hair complaints... Oh, do they use turn signals in New York?
What the hell is the deal with no damn turn signals?
Yeah, the bitching about the food and sandwiches. Anyone can load a pound of meat on two slices of bread with nothing else on it genius.
I lived in Tampa for a while... it is nuts.
Here in Central FL, Winter Haven, we have more Canadians... much better.

It's all about the quality of the bread. There's lots of places where it's hard to find decent bread.

One of the good bumper stickers I saw was in response to all the "I

NY" bumper stickers you see down here all winter. It simply said "You

NY? Take I-95 North". Nuff said.

Palmetto Bug is the vernacular term for a Wood Roach. They are indeed big, and they do fly. I hate roaches, but the Wood Roach lives mostly outdoors in moist leaf litter and wet wood piles. It comes into homes looking for water. The ones that really infest homes are the Germans and the Japanese (like they infested Europe and the Pacific in WWII).

I met Skip Snow, the dude that's trying to catch those pythons. Besides the little Beagle they use to sniff them out, they've inserted a few transmitters into some of the female snakes and track them. Seems that where the female pythons go, a male is sure to follow (imagine that) and the latter simply follows the odor path of the female. They caught several that way. They then kill them by starving them of oxygen.

This is Python Petey, the wonder Beagle

This is Everglades biologist Skip Snow with a dead python.

This is the famous "exploded" snake.

Lastly, this is you know who with an albino Burmese Python.
