Take it, or LEAVE IT!" or "You're in the South. Take it or LEAVE IT!"<br /><br />And <i>you</i>, my friend, need to post more often! You have a loyal reader here who starves for more florida cracker crumbs!MinorcanMeteorolgisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17095923117456588424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29399576.post-35537808047545106522007-01-19T00:57:00.000-05:002007-01-19T00:57:00.000-05:00Where should 'these people' live?

There's a lot more of them, and no gators or rattlers to worry about!!<br /><br />It's all too unfortunate how greedy some of us have become...I don't understand how that could be when we come from the same background and are all (well, most) taught to respect the land and our history.
