Returned to Florida!!!

[greytdemocrat]

Hey everyone!

I don't post much on this great site but I had to tonight.

My wife and the dawgs and I are returning to SW Florida!!!

I'm in IT and I was able to land a greyt job in a city that isn't exactly
known for IT positions. And, we were able to sell our home in the St. Louis
area in record time. We also got a really nice place down here in the
Sarasota/Bradenton area for a steal.

The American dream is still alive!!!

1. Well, congrats..

Things are looking up

3. Thanks!

I think my ability to find a good paying job here is a direct result of so many people having to leave Florida during the "Dark Times" of the "Bush Empire".

When a state in our Union loses enough talent because of whatever, the door opens for others...

2. I LOVE that area!

Can I come and visit?

4. LOL!!

I just hope the oil spill doesn't spoil the beaches here. That would be a crime.

6. Hi

Well, I've lived in that area for 10 years before I lost my job.

I moved to St. Louis and got got married to a very lovely lady who, against
all thoughts, has decided to follow me here. I'm really very lucky.

good luck on your new job.

The first summer back may seem hot. It takes a couple of years to adapt.

18. Welcome. Save your hair clippings and roll them up. You might need them.

(hair clippings absorb oil, in case someone didn't understand)

20. We left south Florida years ago and I would not go back for any job on earth

The only place I have ever lived that was a worse shithole than south florida was central texas.
