We just signed the petition to put abortion rights on the 2024 Florida Voting Ballot.
With Hard Rock now providing craps/roulette/blackjack as well as sports betting, South Florida has become the most complete vacation destination in our country. Beautiful beaches, great restaurants, great concerts, beautiful weather, great fishing, cruise destinations, international airports & major league sports are just a few of the things visitors can choose to enjoy. And don't forget the Mouse Kingdom in Orlando.
The Coast Guard is doing a fantastic job of catching boats attempting to bring drugs into the country. Almost daily we hear about seizures taking place & scumbags hauled off to jail. Well done!

I forgot to change the channel & now the Sound of Music is on & will be on until it's over. My wife is already comfortable in her chair. Damn! Hey Stu, I think Julie Andrews is sexy too!!!
Of course you do. She looks like Carol Burnett in a weird way though Julie Andrews is conventionally hotter but the duchess or whatever that the dad was seeing was definitely hotter than Andrews.
TIME TO BRING BACK THE OBAMA CAGES!

Went out to get a couple of 5 Guys burgers & I received confirmation that the snowbirds have officially arrived. A car from Quebec and a car from Massachusetts collided in the intersection at the main artery of our town. Welcome to South Florida! Now move your fucking cars so I can get lunch!
I was going to ask if you guys called the homeless snowbirds, which would be kind of cruel but they are snowbirds in much the same way.

We can differentiate local homeless from snowbird homeless.
Out locals are distinguished by their worn tan leathery skin as opposed to the ghostly white colored legs/arms/shirtless chests of the snowbird invaders.
South Floridians that own businesses welcome the gray nomads while despising the homeless seeking warm winter weather. From a simple economic point of view, they add nothing but take whatever they can get.
It's nowhere near as bad a big cities like NYC, San Fran etc. & the homeless normally make it back home around April with the the senior adventurers.

and it’ll make everything else seem about as troublesome as bellybutton lint to a person that has arthritis in their fingers when they’re having a real hard time reaching in there deep to get that last piece that’s nestled in the darkest and most desolate corners of that body hole ……
that’s tangled up with like 8 pubic looking hairs and tufts of random cotton from the shirts worn by that person over the course of the last week .
that kind of trouble , angst , and stress involved in excavating that old stinky bellybutton lint will pale in comparison .
believe it .
BACK PATTING and KISSING threads are like passing HAM SANDWICHES around over and over-wall

Something that has caught my eye & still baffles me.
Watch the remaining football games & inevitably you will see a player get dinged or his bell rung. While being helped off the filed to the sidelines, teammates will try to console him with taps on his helmet.
Pats on the ass are more appropriate than possibly re-ringing the bell sounding off again inside the dude's helmet with the additional touching of his noggin.

And hypocrisy ? Damn yo , don’t even light my fire on that one , and if you do , give me some peyote , and call me Jim Morrison , and then please tell wallstreet to pick me up at the airport because I’ll be headed to the Arizona desert to intermingle amongst the gods of whatever dimensions are layered over this one …..
to contemplate the ills of society even further than I do now , just so that I can see if I can rectify the problems that persist with the “ know it all hobgoblins “ that think they are above the chastising and scrutinization of their actions just because their fearful thought processes tell them falsely that …….
that’s the way that things should manifest themselves .
because I’m a rider on the storm son , and the weather is getting a little too rough for the common folk out there . I can see it .
also another random thought : were scooby doo and shaggy really potheads or were they always hungry because they needed a lot of extra energy to do all that teenage supersleuthing ?
hmmmmmm …….. the mysteries of it all midnight . It leaves me captivated ……and with the munchies .

During the holidays surrounded by family & friends here's a little teaser to share with them & see if they can repeat the statement. You can only say it twice & they won't understand what you said the first time. You can also do it to your smartass brother in law after he's had a few drinks. Here we go...
MISSISSIPPI gave MISSOURI her NEW JERSEY. What did DELAWARE? IDAHO, ALASKA.
Most people will stumble & not being able to repeat it. I'd give them about 10 seconds to repeat it but not much longer than that. I'd be interested to hear any results. KidS between 10 to 15 will get a real kick out of as well grandparents who will think it's pretty cool.
Have fun with it!

We have 6 days to do something nice for someone we don't even know.
Yesterday, I had a loser in Western Kentucky +4.5 until they came back to win. I decided to take that hundy & pay the grocery bill for someone at our local Publix store. I'm not going to miss the money & hopefully it will help out someone in need.
I'm going to pick a random person, stand in line behind them & when they checkout, I'll pickup the tab. Real simple. Anyone in these forums can do the same thing. So...
JUST DO IT!

In 87 my sister visited me in Florida & we went fishing for sharks. She caught a 5 foot golden hammerhead that weighed 40 pounds. They don't usually grow that big. So we took pictures & released it. The taxidermist was able to create a mold from the pictures so I had it mounted for her birthday. She's had it in her home ever since.
She's in the process of downsizing & was going to give it to the bar owner where she plays in poker tournaments. Another card player heard of the fish & asked if he could have. She said he's a nice guy & gave it to him.
Now my question is "What kind of degenerate wants to have a mounted fish in his house THAT HE DID'T CATCH!
Whatta fucktard!

Haha, that’s great. I think the answer is: a degen poker player who wants something to lie about while he’s losing his dough

Found a grandmother in line @ Publix. She was planning on cooking X-MAS Eve dinner for her family. Paid her $86.64 grocery bill. You would have thought I had paid off her mortgage. She was thrilled & said she would light a candle for me on Christmas.
OH HAPPY DAY!

To this day, I'm shocked of the limited vocabulary used by Americans. I don't know if this is a generational issue or that people are just basically lazy. I got great advice from my Mom.
She taught me that when I came across a word I didn't understand my Mom wanted me to mark the page & when finished reading, look it up in the dictionary. I should then try to use that word (if appropriate) in a sentence the following day. It was a little awkward at first because I was still about 12. However, to this day I will look up the unknown word just for my own edification (see what I mean) but rarely try to use it the following day.
Maybe there's someone you know that could use this advice .

I still look up words I don't understand because it's so much easier with the internet. Also if I don't understand something in a movie I'll look it up on WIKI.

I don't know how someone can fully understand the written word if they don't know 15 to 20% of the words a person comes across in conversations at work, in negotiations or watching a movie.
Some of the worst offenders are supposedly the college educated. It's the dumbing down of America.

I have a tendency to worry about shit that is of no concern to me. At this time of the year, people losing their jobs is always a possibility. It reminded me of some wisdom shared with me 34 years ago.
I lost a high paying job in South Florida which was an area of the country with very few companies offered this type of compensation. I was using a headhunter & sending my resume to companies all across the country. Now of course all these job searches are performed online.
I was ragging on myself because I wasn't receiving any interest or leads. I stopped off at the home of my wife's 90 year old Aunt Flo's house to drop off some sugar because she was a big baker. I started to bitch & moan to her about not having a job and she said listen....
"If you were to put all your problems in a paper bag, climb the highest hill where you met other people with their bags of problems sitting at their feet & a big gust of wind came & blew the bags strewn all over the hillside, you would run pretty damn fast to pick up your bag of problems & not the bag of anyone else."
HOW WISE IS THAT!!! Our problems always feel monumental to us but we fail to realize the problems of others are most likely worse than yours.
So in the holiday spirit, the next time someone starts bitching about how their life sucks share this little bit of wisdom with them.

Yea Stu, she was a real fountain of information. She passed away at the age of 99 & had seen plenty in her life. Aunt Flo lived a very comfortable life & her husband was a big shot executive with Kraft Foods. She really didn't want for anything & was a women before her time. Very outspoken & you knew where she stood on just about every issue. And if you got on her shit list, you had no chance of ever getting off.
Lord, I lover her!
