As a matter of fact, no, I've never had any desire to live in Florida.

A 77-year-old Florida woman thought her new air conditioner crashed down at 3:30 a.m. Friday, but it turned out to be a large alligator that broke through the kitchen window.

Resident Mary Wischhusen was headed to the bathroom before she found the massive reptile sitting in her kitchen Friday, the Tampa Bay Times reported.

Thank heavens there is something keeping people out of Florida.

Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are in the quarterfinals of the French Open!

Nadal will be playing either Kei Nishikori (would love to see THAT match) or Frenchman Benoit Paire.

Stefanos Tsistipas, one of the only young guys with anything on the ball lately (pun intended) is in the QFs as well. He is the only Greek (from Greece) to make the QFs since 1936. His father is Greek and his mother is Russian.

A Russian descent American, Sofia Kenin, defeated Serena Williams.

My favorite Russian player, Denis Istomin, is up two spots this week to 97 in the world. He plays for Uzbekistan.

Interesting -- there's apparently a major Google services outage going on at the moment, taking down gmail, youtube, snapchat, and other services in a number of countries. Hack attack? Squirrel chewing the wires?

It was a joke, but as usual, it doesn't make sense to others. Florida has way too many people to sustain and something like 1000 people a day move into the state.

Actually my "huh" was about something completely unrelated, for which I helpfully provided absolutely no context. :mrgreen:

I understand the mosquitoes in Florida are often mistaken for helicopters. And nobody goes there anymore because it's too crowded. Best if people stay away.
