I am leaving this **** for a new house that's gonna be around 2150 sq ft, 3/2/2.5 for under $190K

That's why I didn't go to West Palm, I know how crowded it is. And I'm not in Melbourne right now, I wish I was. 410K? That's nothing compared to NY prices. Try 500K for a small *** house and you'll be lucky to get a garage or driveway even.

I just moved from WPB (well Loxahatchee actually) after living in PBC for the past 13 years to Finland... Funny to hear my friends over there complain about how its cold, its -30 over here. That means no working on the car, no taking the car out (I doubt they make a 275 winter tire - which is required until March by law)... etc etc...

PS. Yes I will change my location in my profile...in fact I have been wanting to do that for...........10 years

I will be fine and hell I'd gladly take a foot of snow with power loss ANY day of the week before I endure another hurricane with power loss and NO A/C or hot shower for 8-10 days. **** that, you can come tell my panting Sheltie why he's so hot and miserable and he just doesn't understand.

edit: Location in profile CHANGED! And boy that felt gooooooood!
I'm hovering over the ban button of all you anti-FL folks.
I personally like this suggestion: If you don't like Florida, take I-95 north.
Ok, so maybe I'm kidding. But y'all will have to figure out about which part.

Hahaha well you are welcome to come race with us.
Our new tracks:
Fayetteville 10.79 miles from our area or 20 mins
Kinston (KDS) 96 miles 1/4 track *half the distance to BMP from WPB*
Jacksonville (Coastal Plains) 94 miles 1/4 track *half the distance to BMP from WPB*
Rockingham 64 miles *IHRA* looks sticky like BMP.
Now don't forget Eric, NC is close to VA, then comes MD.............there is always MIR to go to as well
And to think, I was stuck at Moroslow all this time, not much longer

same here... sucks I had to work on sunday but my girlfirend got to go back with some friends and watched qualifying too...
Here's the view from my office, and it's a bitch of a commute
(all 20 feet of it) especially during rush hour like this. Plus
it's fixing to maybe freeze tonight. My own private hell.
