Nope, nothing too exciting.
Haven't been arrested since that horrible underage drinking rap in high school--even that was pretty boring, sorry.
Just new to DU.
Got an automail saying to intro myself in this forum--so yeah--Hi from Florida!

(6,261 posts)If I recall my high school years, it was the non-underage drinkers you had to watch out for. Not a popular position these days, I suspect.

(113,192 posts)You are out in South Florida and come across a six-foot Eastern Diamondback.
You
A) slowly back out and high-tail it out of there
B) Pause to pull out your phone to find out the current bounty being offered
C) Realize it is a test and eager to show your bonafides, you throw caution to the wind, "praise God" and grab that snake for a bear-hug like the gift presented that it "obviously" is...
Note... We will evaluate your true "Florida Man" credentials based on your response.

(27,480 posts)Need more of us here to get rid of the trio of terribles, Scott, Rubio and DeSantis. Oh yes, also have to work on defeating that idiot clown Matt Gaetz representing the 4th District.
We're a pretty congenial bunch except during primaries. That's why we have a separate forum just for the primaires. But plenty of other interesting forums. Take a look over to the left hand side of the page. Sure you'll find several forums to grab your interest.

(12,132 posts)Like Lochloosa I was also born in Tallahassee but I've lived all over the south from Maryland to Texas and back to central Florida now.
I've only spent one night in jail and that was in Garland, TX and only for an unpaid traffic ticket.
