This Miami man got on the wrong side of the law following a high-speed motorcycle chase in the Middle Keys. His shirt says it all.
I love it! And that is why I want to move down there.

Keynoter note
I was reading the Keynoter.com this morning (well, ok, reading and looking at some pictures in their gallery). I came across the following picture and caption:

Trolling for Comments on a Manic Monday
So here we are on another Manic Monday. Alright, I know somebody is reading this. I opened it up for anonymous comments, so somebody comment on a former post (or this one for that matter). If I wanted a journal, I would not put it out on the net. Thanks in advance!

Good to be back in Florida after going to California and Ohio
Just a short post from Jeffrey. As you know, I have been on the West coast to San Diego and then back to Florida for couple of days. Then I went up to Cincinnati, Ohio to see friends and family for the New Year. It was COLD UP THAR! Hehe. It was a good time, but the Perma-cloud that hangs over the area was horrible. As the Kid Rock/Sheryl Crow song goes, "I ain't seen the sun in three damn days!" It was true, it was sunny the day we landed, then we did not see it again for 3 days. Now I know why I moved. Well at least one of the reasons.
I guess I sort of lied, this is turning into a longer post. The thing about Cincinnati is 90% of all people there are bred to "get a job". Now there is nothing wrong with this I guess, but after being there in the suburbs with the hyper consumers for a week, I felt like that existence was disgusting (at least to me). I am sure people can find contentment in it, but man, oh man, it is not for me. It was like watching the same rerun over and over. People doing the same boring jobs over and over, buying the same boring outfits that marketers throw at them, and going to the same restaurants and bars over and over. Sure there are area's of Cincy that have creativity and spark (Clifton near UC, Mt. Adams, Hyde Park square... but not in the rich people's houses, Glendale to an extent, parts of NKY), but most of it is boring and dull to me. It was sucking away my soul I think. Which is sharp contrast to down here in FL. Everybody is either dirt poor or an entrepreneur. I guess you have to be if you want to make money here, because there are very few industries where you can "get a job". I will say this, California was about a 50/50 mix of the 2 ("get a jobbers" and "work for myselfers"), which is probably due to the larger population.
Well, I guess I will not bash Ohio anymore. It was not my intent to really do so anyway, but just to say, I guess it is not for me all the time (I still have the dream to warm bird there in the summer). On one last note, as much as I like Ohio to visit friends and family, I have noticed now after living away for a few years and have been in other parts of the country, Cincinnati's traffic is the drivers own doing (i.e. You'll don't know how to drive!), and I admit I am a HORRIBLE DRIVER (which is why I try not to do it much). My wife is an excellent driver, no pun intended.
