Cool, congrats. Hmm Jan is ok afaik, I hardly ever get back to NY at all. I came out to Orlando a couple of years ago to see a DJ at a club and met my current g/f, ended up meeting a whole bunch of people and moving here.

I like it here better for some reason, Tampa was OK but Orlando feels more like home somehow? ie like NY. Its the people I guess

bring yourself to Clayton county Georgia, the WORST driving record in the entire state of GA.

i did a report on this for a senior year HighSchool project. Clayton County GA has the worst driving record in the following categories:

Minor Accidents, Major Acidents, Injury Accidents, Fatality Accidents, Speeding Tickets >$50, moving violations, no insurance, suspended/revoked license and finally.....NO TAG!! clayton county topped all 162 Counties in the state.

It doesnâ??t matter where you are, there are always bad drivers. My brother was nearly killed because of an inattentive truck driver about three weeks ago; never feel safe on the roads.

*ahem*

You might want to look at the DescentBB.css file. ;) Topher install the BB software, but Tetrad and I did the template. :D (though if it wasn't for NitroFox, none of this would've been possible and most likely we'd still be using UBB...)

Well, you and JMEaT did demonstrate how far we could go with the quote tags, and you did find the flaw in the censor (which Topher fixed). :)

Yeah the new BB software seems great, looks like the format translation went over fine. I know we were talking about that a couple of years ago.

You get better performance out of it? Speed? Indexing?

Hm as far as the driving thing.. Ive driven in almost every major city in the US also ...

LA is by far the worst IMO. Florida actually can be very cool because people here are not generally in so much of a hurry. They are polite and consistantly let each other into traffic, wave you in etc.

That is 50% of the people

The other 50% are totally old and blind and have no clue other people are on the road with them :)

BTW I am in Atlantic City right now, Jan and family are here right now, Jan says hi Jim
