    I live in Ft. Lauderdale area. The eye passed right over us. Pretty cool ( but waaay scary). 6 hours of 100+ mph wind. Got our power back last Fri. but it went down again on Sun. Came back yesterday ,hopefully for good. Lots of downed trees. Lost most of my roof. Got to camp out for 2 weeks with...

    Chicago gas hits $3.33 a gallon! How much are you paying?

    Yeah, I saw that episode too. Might want tofind out the cost of the machine first. Also, what do you do with the waste. I'm sure that the code enforcement cops would love to talk to ou too. Neighbors might object to the smell of rancid cooking oil. Other than that, great idea (just like most of...

    Chicago gas hits $3.33 a gallon! How much are you paying?

    Filled up on Mon. $2.69 for reg. Filled up today, $2.89, same station. Filled my Blackwood yesterday, $3.09 for 94 octane. I understand that gas prices are going up but what I DO NOT understand is this : I have always had at least 1 car that needed premium. Back in the day, the difference...

    Hurricane Katrina

    Glad to hear that you didn't get the full shot. Do you have power? How about phones? I'm trying to call friends in Mobile and Dothen and the phone just rings. Are you seeing what's going on in New Orleans? Don't know if the TV stations are up and running. As bad as it must be in Mobile, New...

    Hurricane Katrina

    I live in south Fla. and Katrina passed just south of our location. Some flooding and property damage but nothing approaching the scale of what we are seeing on the Gulf Coast. I was miserable living without electricity (and AC) for a day......Now I know how lucky I am......

    You can find one on E-BAy for @ 26.00 plus frt. Its the original model that has an LED readout instead of the screen. If you buy the one that G-Tech on E-Bay (there are several dif. sellers) they have updated the software so its current. I had one and it worked real good until someone stole it...

    Lincoln Vs. Cadillac: Navigator Vs. Escalade

    An Alternate Viewpoint For my 2 cents, Navis and Escalades are a dime-a-dozen , especially in this area. If you want reasonable performance (32v, 300 hp. 380 fp/torque),8700 lb towing capacity and all da toys in an SUV ride that shines, one word comes to mind...... BLACKWOOD

    Michael Jackson Not Guilty!

    He beat the rap. The jury found him "not guilty" because of insufficient evidence. They didn't find him" innocent". Let me catch him near one of my grandsons and I'll go "not guilty" on his ass, no problem. The thing that I cannot understand is how any black person can support someone who has...

    Southeast Get Together

    There is a Lincoln Road but it is a pedestrian mall now . Lots of upscale shops and clubs. South Beach is an amazing place though. Unlike anything you've ever seen. The women are INCREDIBLE. I have a pool furniture repair business and work right beside the pools. Its tough to concentrate...

    Central Fla. members

    Thanks for the reply. The market is pretty much the same down here. I could sell my home in a couple of days for about 4x what I paid , but the new place would be outrageous. I think that there are still some affordable places around but you have to really search. I've been looking around Ocala...
