I just drive from the assBackward county or small town to Orlando or one of
the more modern counties. Usually, the drive is a block or two. Sometimes,
we just walk across the street.

This year, I'll be down in the "Progressive" municipality of Felda, Florida
celebrating New Years Eve. No booze for sale, no cash registers, just
free-flowing alcohol and on New Years Day, good BBQ to eat, and more
alcohol. I'm glad I have Tuesday off too!

kili, you take care of yourself and have a much better 2007 than you had in
2006. I'm making plans this weekend to be @ Burnt Island Jan. 1, 2008.
Tell Big Jim that he needs to get better too.
