First, I make sure I have money secured and my .38 Smith and Wesson properly concealed (yes, I have a permit). One cannot simply walk anywhere. This being the largest city in the U.S. (geograpically...perhaps Kansas City begs to differ), one has to get into ones car to go anywhere (which will always take at least 20 minutes). Yes, there are shops (malls) where the people go, but they are not usually so festive. As with most large towns, people try not to make eye contact (yes, this is the South, but there have been decades of Yankee migration which has disrupted the culture..more so in South Florida than North Florida, but the culture has changed for the worse). There are few public benches on which to sit, but one can't relax for fear of being mugged or perhaps being too close to a drug deal in progress. So one has a tendency to stay home and watch the 'boob tube' with all the predictable situation comedies or crime shows, go to bed, and start another day at work (if one still has a job in this lousy economy). Sorry to be 'so cheerful'. I guess I am just in one of those moods.David L.

And, yes, it also does a great job on the floors.Edd Statonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10087303161307567127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1761596656009288835.post-12518913979178468702010-10-03T01:54:19.902-03:002010-10-03T01:54:19.902-03:00Edd,

Well, at least until I realized this may be happening to me in a few more months. I definitely don't want to shop at that store, but I definitely want to know that attorney. Hope that new microwave (was it GE again?) is still working for you.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08896957392015319062noreply@blogger.com
