And just yesterday I almost got t-boned by some old fart who aparently missed the large gray car hurtling at him down the road as he pulled out of a friggin restaurant parking lot. I cant wait for the ones in the Ft. Lauderdale area to get the hell out already. Every night I go out with my woman I have to be doging q-tips left and right. Enough already.



And wtf is up with all the old canucks who come down here? I swear there more Quebec tags in town than local ones.

I actually lived in Sarasota for a few years. Ended up selling my motorcycle because of the "old folk/tourist" phenomena...



Really you only get 30-45 days of rest a year. Next month all the vacationers show up and they are cutting you off so they don't miss their exit. About the time they leave all the old folks head down and are cutting you off because they can't SEE their exit.



It's a vicious cycle . . .

I hate snow, so I think I can deal with the old farts. I'm just glad they are starting to head out.

Heh, I still live in Sarasota, and I have just as much of a problem with the soccer moms in their Maibatsu Monstrosities as I do with the old people who don't understand the concept of traffic flow. I almost beat the crap out of someone today in a suburban because I didn't pull away from the stop sign fast enough for them on my bike, and they decided to ride my *** and hit the horn, because her kids needed to get picked up from school or something, and she was late for her mocha latte enema.

Finally, another Bus load going back up north and leaving florida, now if only they could take the rest of them with them I'd be happy. I get tired of having to stomp my brakes because some old hag decides last minute she wants to go from the left lane and make a right turn on US-41.
It's no good, man! They're probably headed to Atlantic City. They'll win big at the slots then come back and buy a house and a bigger car!

Nope, its a shuttle back to South Hampton NJ all of 51 passangers and their boats, uh, I mean cars (parking lot with so many crown vic and Grand Marq. you'd think it was a police convention.) are heading back up to their other homes up north.

OH and you ever tried to go to one of them all you can eat restuarants only to find out they are having the "Early Bird Special" now you have to wait to go eat because the parking lot looks like a OLD AGE CONVENTION.
