3. If it weren't for the picture, it wouldn't be newsworthy.

Gator in Floridian suburbia? Big surprise. Any good-sized pond or lake down here probably has at least one.

5. Oh, I know

there are plenty of gators there.

But when they start trying to crawl up the sides of houses.... well that's a whole 'nuther story.

7. There's an alligator living about 50 yards from my house.

It's illegal to feed them, but I frequently go out there and toss him some raw chicken wings and hot dogs. It's also fun to watch him go after marshmallows.
