That would be Hogtown, smack dab in the middle of Alachua County, the world's largest importer of jorts, and where the mullet is still a fashionable hairstyle. Home of the "Harvard of the South", the University of Florida Fightin' Gates. Where the football team is above the law, and Coach Urban Cryer only recruits the top 1% of 1% of juvenile delinquents. Where Timmy Tebow cries "wee wee wee wee wee" all the way home to his boyfriend Tony Joiner. That, my friend, is trailer park heaven.

Florida has a lot of trailers, and that's why there's so much garbage strewn all over the place when even a weak hurricane passes over us. In Cuba and the Bahamas, they build homes out of concrete block or simply concrete. I don't know what feeds Florida's deadly addiction to structures that get blown down or lose a roof every 3 years...

I think they are right here in Tampa, because I walk by three or so everyday and there is trash everywhere and bums.

Yea I'm pretty sure Tallahassee is a pretty backward Southern town. I also remember from college that FSU was home to the most "good ol' boys" who act like rednecks just like minorities (and a few goofy whites) like to act like gangsters and thugs.

You know... My wife is from Rural Louisiana about 2 hours south of New Orleans. The first time I ever went there I said to myself that it reminded me of " Old Florida " even the people were the same. Maybe you should check it out, You may be happier there...

2 hrs south of New Orleans, huh? Interesting. I have a friend from there, a very nice guy. Would give the shirt off his back for anyone. If its like Old FLA, it must be a pretty cool place.

LOTS of backwards redneckish people, I was talking more of the landscape then the people though. She lived near Grand Isle and hated it but then maybe that's because she's black and lived around those backwards redneckish people in an area that's 90% white-non hispanic ?
