I know the old "Florida Man" bullshit and yeah, I get it. I've lived on and off in Florida since 1963 and graduated HS in Miami in the late 70's. I've lived in SW FL as well as the Ocala area and am now on "The First Coast".

But....just indulge me here for a sec, willya?

Here is what is happening JUST THIS WEEK in my beloved home state;

It's BIKE WEEK!





It's SPRING TRAINING TIME!!
(I was within 120 miles of most of those games that played today. 4 were less than 30 miles away!)




The STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL IS ON!!




The INDY CARS ARE IN ST. PETERSBURG this weekend





And The 12 HOURS OF SEBRING is next week!




SPRING BREAK is starting up!





And the WEATHER IS FINE!






Now...just to be clear, I don't give a damn whether you like my state or not, nor do I care whether or not you ever come here.

But for those of us who know there are just as many "::Insert the name of your state here::: MAN" stories as there are FLA Man, and who love this state for all its beauty, fun and activities, we love...LOVE this time of year.

There's a SHITLOAD going on!

So come on down if you want!

Oh yeah...I lived in a house that had Manatees stop by on occasion,,,,,so there!!
